Claudio Pizarro cost £15million less than Nicolas Anelka but it was
the Peruvian, a substitute and free transfer, who snatched an
undeserved win for unconvincing Chelsea.
Just moments before his late winner, Pizarro had his penalty claims
denied. The striker redeemed himself, at least in his team's eyes,
with the headed goal which made an off-key display by Anelka on his
full debut irrelevant.
If winning games when you are not playing well is the mark of
champions, then Chelsea are still looking good to give Manchester
United and Arsenal a run for their money.
Although Grant differs from his predecessor in almost every other
way, he shares with Jose Mourinho the uncanny knack of seeing a
different game from almost everyone else.
Grant said: "I thought we deserved to win. We had control of the
ball for most of the game. It was one of Pizarro's best
performances for us and he deserved to score the goal.
"Continentals see it as being clever," said a stony-faced McLeish.
"If he had got his team a penalty, none of the Chelsea players,
even the English ones, would have complained." The Scot added "but
they don't dive as good as ManUtd"
"It was a great performance, said McLeish. "We rattled Chelsea, but
unfortunately we've nothing to show for our efforts."
The Blues have added a new diver to their team...

Surprise surprise! a ManUtd fag mod suddenly appeared in our
forum. Maybe Chelsea is threatening ManUtd more than the other
"Reds" i guess.
