Once again, a VERY ordinary performance. I was really disappointed with Frank (again) Malouda (anonymous) and Hilario conspired to hand the game to Norwich. Bosingwa is definitely improving, Ramires worked his socks off and both Mata and Lukaku did well when coming on. Mata, respect, first game first goal.

Drogba 5 and Torres 6? Have I been watching a different match ??

Hilario 5 - ok performance except the goal against and couple of times he missjudges distances

Ivanovic 6 - Takes little of the blame with bad communication with hilario on the goal against

Bosingwa 6 - Great goal, but need to work on his crosses

Terry 6 - ok performance

Cole 5 - Not been convinced by his performances in the last matches, bad crosses and leaves huge space for counters

Ramires 7 - Great counter with anelka to earn us the penalty, great workrate and only small negative was some sloppy passes

Lampard 5 - Very anonymous at times, good play with mata at the end and a penalty goal

Mikel 4 - Not giving norwich a hard time infront of our defence and his passing play is slow and predictebal

Malouda 2 - No effort today and was giving the ball away way to much.

Drogba 4 - Lost way to many duels, close to scoring with the torres pass in first half

Torres 4 - same as drogba

Subs : (would have given them 1-2 higher score if they played longer at the same level)

Mata 7 - Great start in the chelsea shirt. Kept moving around with and without the ball, nice play on the left with lampard and a goal.

Lukaku 6 - Good positioning as central striker, unlike drogba/torres he wanted the ball and was a constant threat

Anelka 6 - Good counter with ramires for our second goal and was more direct in his play then he usually is

Difference between Drogba and Torres:-

Drogba poor from an attacking perspective but excellent, as usual, defensively.

Torres just poor.

Did we lose or something?

We lost 3-1 and will almost certainly get relegated, were you not watching?

Had a look at the replay to get a better idea

Hilario 6 - Made some good saves but didn't need to come for the equaliser

Bosingwa 7 - Spanked away his goal. Lacked an option in front of him. Too often there was noone within 20 yards of him and he just had to take it on himself, some excellent balls into the channel for Lukaku late on too.

Ivan 6.5 - Has his share of blame for the goal, but made some good strong headers when danger loomed late on. Missed a sitter

JT 6.5 - Bit shaky, doesn't look all that comfortable with the highline particularly with Cole and Bosingwa bombing on. Couple of good headers at cornertime

Cole 6.5 - Nothing special, some good interplay with Mata when he came on

Mikel 6.5 - Did his bit, but doesn't really give you much

Ramires 7 - Did well to win the pen, was dangerous on the counter

Lampard 7 - Did better than anyone is giving him credit for. Took his penalty well, put in a beauty of a cross that Ivan should have scored from. Looked a lot better after Mata came on to give him an out ball.

Drogba 6.5 - Did his best to linkup with Torres, but looked a bit off the pace. Hope he is ok after the knock he took.

Torres 6.5 - Drifted in and out. Unlucky with a good header from Mata's cross.

Malouda 5.5 - Not his best work.

Nico 7 - Looks the best of our forward players currently, great little touch to send Ramires clear.

Mata 7 - Just as good as we all hoped

Lukaku 7 - First touch let him down a bit, but for a young lad who would have obviously been nervous he looked good (although of course with the benefit of only having ten men). Would have had a tap in if Mata decided to pass.

I've watched it again and I'm not sure the pass to Lukaku was on. Would have either been cleared or resulted in an own goal from the defender imo.

I'm not saying he should have passed, I'm just saying it was good positioning because he was there for the pass or the rebound. Mata could have passed I think just slipped it across the face for him to run on to.

Honestly I didn't think Ramires was that good.

Honestly I didn't think Ramires was that good.

We had so little movement in our frontline/midfield anyone with a bit of pace and workrate looks good. He was my own MoM though his distribrution and first touch could definetly improve, if he had these he would be one hell of a player.

Yes but 7/7?

(there was a ghost of joke in there but never mind)

I wouldn't know, I don't play Football Manager and I get 36/38 Chelsea games in HD on my TV...the joys of living in Australia.

Hahaha! Yeah, some of those ratings I put in there to stir people. Shame it didn't work :(

On reflection and after watching the game on replay twice (uni holidays!)...i still wouldn't diverge too far from those ratings. Maybe drop Ramires to a 5, Torres to a 3 and make them out of 7.

Subs may seem a little inflated but for the short time they were all on the pitch they were all pretty effective in my opinion.
