Sheva Should Have Started Yesterday!!!

What player would you have wanted to start at Anfield yesterday. An ineffective lightweight like Salomon Kalou or an ineffective but vastly experienced Andriy Shevchenko?

Me. I would have gone for The Shev. The 17 minutes that the Shev got yesterday was no more than a token appearance to perhaps pacify RA's desire to see his £30m investment play.

All week Jose had planned his formation with Carvalho playing at the back. Carvalho wakes up on Saturday morning unwell and the week's planning goes straight out of the window. Essien has to move into the back four instead of perhaps playing the Makelele role and Mikel is added to the team instead. Personally I would have preferred Diarra to start because he can play the Maka holding role.

Two Liverpool goals in the first eighteen through basic defensvie errors - and before you think that I am blaming Ferreira and Essien for those errors - I am not. THEY ARE NOT CENTRAL DEFENDERS!!!

There are people to blame however for Chelsea's current crisis. Lets start with Abramovich and his so-called advisers, add Kenyon to the list along with Buck, Tenebaum and the rest and I do apportion some blame to Jose and his management team.

All this squabbling about money and signings has to stop and stop now!!! Chelsea need to concentrate on getting inspirational Captain John Terry fit again as soon as possible, if not pay the damm money and get in a decent centre-half.

OR

Cancel Michael Mancienne's loan spell at QPR and bring him back and put him in the side. I would rather see a 19 year old centre-half who may be brilliant or may be rubbish, play in a position that he knows about and not players who are making up the numbers.

OR

Get Adrian Pettigrew fit ASAP and cancel his potential loan to Wycombe Wanderers.

Both of the above players can play centre-half. They have done it throughout their careers and I have seen them play for the reserves on many occasions and if they EVER played for the first team they will not let us, the fans, down!!!

Take Essien out of his normal position and Chelsea lose the power and drive of his midfield play and Chelsea lose the power TOO!!
