It was celebration for Jose Mourinho and Chelsea as the clinched their fifth Capital One Cup title defeating Kane-less Tottenham 2-0 in the final.
It was a cup Jose cherished from his obvious displays after the final whistle and he described the win as beautiful. Well...., i thought Capital One Cup is a small cup?

Focusing on the Premier League now, Manchester City continues their poor form losing to Liverpool at Anfield. They can take consolation from the fact that Liverpool are yet to lose in the league in 2015 but the loss was a strong dent to their hopes of winning the EPL title. Arsenal bounced back from a woeful midweek performance against Monaco with a patchy 2-0 victory over Martinez’s Everton, it will be good to note that Everton are just six points off relegation zone. Manchester United grinded out a victory against Swansea but you will love the flexibility in the formation system of Louis van Gaal but i know must Pundits will disagree with this. There were shock defeat to Southampton and West Ham’s miserable form continues.

Barcelona were undoubtedly the big gainers this weekend in La Liga as Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid dropped points in their respective games. The lead on the log now cut to just two points. Valencia on the other side held on strongly to fourth as their chaser, Sevilla failed to pick up maximum points against Atletico Madrid. Lastly, Athletico Bilbao bounced back from their UEFA Europa League disappointment against Torino as Carlos Gurpegi's first-half strike settled the Basque derby against Eibar.

In the Serie A, Roberto Mancini and Inter Milan inconsistent season continues as Salah’s goal for Fiorentina silenced San Siro. Fiorentina are unbeaten in 12 in all competitions and they can crush any team with their current form. Napoli chase of European qualification suffered a huge blow as they slipped at Torino 1-0 making it their second loss in their past three league outings. All smiles for Fiorentina, Lazio and Sampdoria as they all won their respective matches this weekend.

Paris Saint-Germain failed to take advantage of defeats for Ligue 1 title rivals Marseille and Lyon as they were held 0-0 by Monaco. It’s no doubt that you need a sledge hammer to break the rock defence of Monaco. Ligue 1 is the new home of exciting football as the title chase will be the closest &most interesting in Europe top five leagues this season. Quote Me lol!

Maybe, we channel our focus on Wolfsburg, Bundesliga Entertainers season as we all know that Bayern Munich are on the run with the Bundesliga title. Another interesting weekend in the Bundesliga as Wolfsburg’s Bas Dost will not stop scoring. He now has 12 goals in seven Bundesliga games for Wolfsburg. In other results, Borrussia Dortmund restoration season continues as they taught Roberto Martinez’s Schalke 04 a triple lesson as they won yet again in the league making it their fourth consecutive wins, Borussia Monchengladbach occupy the final UEFA Champions League spot as they recorded a 2-0 victory over Paderborn.

Lastly on the recap, Porto forward Cristian Tello dealt a severe blow to Sporting Lisbon's title hopes on Sunday, scoring a hat-trick in his side's win. It’s all to chase for in Portugal as Porto continue the charge on Benfica.
