I saw the game and as much as I want Blackburn to beat Chelsea,
it was a near impossible task.
First, Terry did went down, yes, words are being thrown around, but
when you put your hands around an opposing player's waist, and both
of you go down, it is quite clear.
secondly, blackburn, was playing the same game, give the ball to
wings and cross. They play neat but once on the losing end, they
are vulnerable to counter-attack. And Drogba gets the ball, he is
too strong for the defenders so he scored, no surprise.
Just one thing, I can't stand, is Makelele. Whenever he fouls, he
always tries to sweet talk. All of us knows his job, is to disrupt
all opposing attacks, and by hook or crook, he does his job. So for
a veteran like him, when you get spotted, acknowledged it.
Commentors mentioned one fact, Chelsea now is not a gel unit, they
will get better. To me, Chelsea has to change all 3 players in
order for their players to be happy. And they will not make them
gel.
looking at their MF, they got Essien, Makelele, Lampard, Ballack..
too much like for like, I feel that they lost the one element that
all teams fear-> PACE.
Well, I could be wrong... let's see...
