Mourinho was probably best suited for Abramovich, he was able to make a team out of a bunch of expensive individuals, he is that type of manager, not like Fergie who is constantly developing the team (and getting results while he does it).
But for European trophyies you need time, big European teams are able to exploit weaknesses of a instant squad like Chelsea.
This was a great chance for Chelsea and they lost in a perfect setting for them (all English final), unfotunately for them it also meant playing the best team of the entire season
The news about some players leaving, like Drogba and Carvalho may prove a problem for next season, besides Abramovich sacked the 2 best suited managers.
Of course that is quite nice, we're ready for No. 18
