This is brilliant, and will give you a different perspective on what the 'Agueroooo' goal of 2012 meant, whoever you support.

The month of your birth can play a huge role in your future success. Jamie Lawrence's dad found this out when his talented son kept getting overlooked by football scouts. This dad knew his kid had talent – and he had the data to prove it: thecorrespondent.com/406/the-curiou…

There is a myth that Ancelotti cannot build teams and only fine-tunes already established sides. Actually the Milan team he took over from Fatih Terim was a mess and he made a number of tactical and personnel switches that quickly turned them into European champions.

.@MicahRichards told BBC Sport: "From when I was a young kid I dreamed that I would win the Premier League and play for England and I am very proud that I achieved both." (He scored for England too - is their sixth youngest ever senior goalscorer)

Ever wondered about the global appeal of the Premier League? Fans have come from far and wide to watch two English teams tonight (and yes I know that includes everyone who had travelled from London).

Lots of negative coverage about this final being in Azerbaijan but important to point out, as Chelsea legend @PatNevin does here, that “the big thing about Baku is everyone is extraordinarily friendly”

Spoke to a lot of fans earlier about their crazy journeys to get here. Lots of different routes... and modes of transport involved. They all made it.

Arsenal fans have taken over the pubs (and the streets) near Fountains Square, but hard to find Chelsea fans massed in similar numbers. Blues are definitely in the minority in Baku.
