Surely only Ivan and Ramires are in contention. For me both played as well as the other and so I went for Ivan due to getting the goal and an assist.

Ivan

Ivan for me, though I only saw the second half. Ramires looked great too, don't think I saw a misplaced pass at all from him!

I voted Malouda for his second half resurgence. He was absolutely sh*te in the first half, and he was active and causing all kinds of havoc in the second half. Excellently taken corner that led to our first goal.

Ivanovic for me, he's fast becoming a Chelsea legend

Ivan, clearly. Ramires a close second. Drogba, Essien and Malouda the disappointments of the game.

I went for Ramires, although I did deliberate over Anelka and Ivanovic.

In defence of Malouda, he was a key part in both our goals.

Ramires for me. Looked the best player by far in the first half.

voted for Ivan 'anything but' terrible...he got us the win, otherwise it was a shoo-in for ramires, who put some of the big names to shame with his work-rate and quality...the more i see josh play and essien not, the more i think he should start instead...just think carlo hasn't got the bottle to drop his big players

Ivan, cleansheet, goal, assist....

But I agree Ramires had a very good game.

I loved Ramires' work rate and he has to be our most improved player, but I voted for Ivan.

Ivanovic. Altough Ramires and JT come close second/third, especially for their first half. But Bran scored "twice", so he's my choice.

As Loz said, only really between 2 today, and I went for Ramires simply because he is showing some real balls of steel shoving the stick he`s had right back in the naysayers faces. Good on the little bugger.

Ivanovic for me, Ramires very close and had his shot gone in that might have capped it.

Ivan, with Ramires a close second.

Ramires for me.

I'd go for Ramires but have no problem if Ivan tops the poll. Ramires is improving with every game and I was amazed that some of our support were writing him off before he'd hardly settled.

I didn't watch it, but from seeing the ESPN gamecast, I would have to say Ivan.

Ramires for me,showed great pace surging fwd and busting through tackles,lamps was good on the ball,Anelka his usual silky self,and "Ivan oh", of good good result

Ramires fast improving closely shaded it from Ivan

Ivan.

I see that someone has voted Malouda....really????????????

Ramires for me. I understand why many would vote for Branners but for me Ramires showed so much energy closing down their midfield he is really becoming a valued member of the squad.

Dunce of the day were the two blokes who had a fight in row AA block 11 of the MHL. Both got kicked out and have probably been banned from the ground now.

Ivan.

I see that someone has voted Malouda....really????????????

Yes, I did. It was due to the tremendous increase in the way he played, from a terrible first half to a very good (in my opinion) second half, in whch he was a contributing force to both of our goals. You don't see that jump in play very often, from a very bad half to a very good half, and so that was the reason.

Ivan played a great game, admittedly.

Ramiries for me. A lot of energy about him today. Hopefully he will push on now and have a good second half of the season.

Went for Ramires, was running all over the pitch and hes really getting better and better, come summer time and I think he will become a really important player for us.

Ivan close 2nd for the goal and assist.
