Borussia Dortmund thrashed Bayern Munich 5-2 last night in Berlin, in the German Cup Final. Bayern were at full strength and coach Jupp Heynckes said "defensively we were catastrophic"
Good news for Chelsea ahead of the Champions League Final. I have seen Dortmund many times over the last few season, they are worthy winners and also German Bundesliga Champions for the second year running. They have beated Bayern 5 times on the run. If Dortmund can thrash them, so can Chelsea. Take heart, and good luck!
Take Heart from Dortmund!

Bayern are weak defensively and if we can get at their defense then we have every chance.

Chelsea are not exactly watertight at the back, if Bayern get at your defence the will win with soemthing to spare.

Dortmund just got them on the counter. The most important thing though is that we either get an early goal or the first goal. We can then sit off them and play on the counter and tear them apart. Just the first goal is the most important thing.

For a full-strength Bayern Munich side to concede 5 goals tells me that they are defensively weak.
Their league form shows the same thing as well.

If we're gunna pit defence vs defence for this final, with Luiz & Cahill missing we won't come out of that well.
Due to the players we're missing, Mata is gunna be the very definition of PIVETAL. Anytime the ball comes his way, he needs to make it matter. Sturridge will be key aswell - he could silently hold the keys to the kingdom in his performance.
