PloKoon13 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Who was the star man in our imperious destruction of the Scouse?
Spiller86 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 This might seem strange to some, but I'm voting for Mikel. I thought he was excellent. Very disciplined, particularly after his yellow card.
KrazyTea Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 I'll go Drogs for what could be his last Wembley winners goal! Also with the latest goal.com ratings I can't help but continue to feel there are no Chelsea fans there. http://www.goal.com/en/match/79234/liverpool-vs-chelsea-fc/player-ratings
The Moos Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Some really good performances, like Mikel, but THAT save makes me vote for Cech. So important and so amazing. He shouldn't have been able to save that. It was a goal all the way, but somehow he did get a hand up and saved us. Mark my words, that save will be part of the FA Cup history. In 50 years time when they show a video of the FA Cup that save will be one of the highlights.
Virosh Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 I went for Drogba for his excellent goal and his fantastic work rate (how many headers did he win?), but a very close second for Cech, whose save kept us ahead at a crucial point. Overall, I thought the team played well, but noone really stood out, or at least not throughout.
Souwf Londoner Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 That save was fantastic but I went for Juan. Great game, great season. Now he was a good buy.
WV2 Blue Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Gave it to The Special Juan...Big Pete a very close 2nd just for "that" save....
Guest Sindre Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Mikel. What a beast. Suarez and Gerrard is still trying the find their way out of his pocket. And he never gets the praise he deserve so i might aswell do it. That save from Cech deserves mention aswell. What a day!
2211 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) Gonna give it to big Pete, although Mata and Drogba ran him close in my opinion. Also got to give props to Ivan for the clearance straight after Cech's wonder save - it would of been easy for him to lose focus and let Kuyt bundle the ball into the net, and that would of been a certain goal.

matamarryme Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 For me its either Juan or Petr to be honest. Mata was just great through out and Petr with that brilliant save. Cant chose between them really.
Scott Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Cech for me but Mata or Rami both were in contention. Drogba's goal was very important but thought he was average at times.
Myles_91 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Lampard for me, dominated the midfield, not far behind Cech or Kalou
Arq Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Cech for me. That save not only solidified the win, but took some steam out of the Scousers. Well done to everyone at CFC though, they deserve to lift the trophy!
Gem Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Pete, Rambo, Branna, Lamps, JT, Matador, Drogs... Gone for Pete, love him.
Chippy Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) Strange one as a lot of players had up and down games, I thought Ash had a good first half as did Mikel, Mata and Ramires but all suffered a bit later on, I find it hard to see past Mata as he pulled a few strings and looked class until we were under siege, Drogs was good again and JT and Ivan as well until Caroll came on and Bullied them a bit. over all on the night for me its really tight between Mata, Cech and Drogs but I think Drogbas reliability in Cup finals like this has earned him my vote.

BlueBeard Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) Most of the players had really good games, for the most part, but my vote goes to Mikel - great tackling, passing and distribution, and unfairly yellow carded. Ashley also had a really good game, as did Mata, JT, Lamps, Ramires and Ivan - even Bosingwa & Kalou did well. I'd add Petr Cech to that list but I personally feel that he could have stopped Carroll's goal. Drogs did great up until Liverpool scored, and then he seemed to just disappear. Never mind - WE WON THE CUP, yet again! Edited May 5, 2012 by BlueBeard
lukasz Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 This was a great team performance, but Cech gets my vote. That save was crucial.
charierre Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 cech for the save alone up there with the best ones by Banks and Montgomery
Ruh Buh Juh Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Could've been a few players, Mata, Drogba, Lampard, Mikel were superb, but for me Ivanovic deserves all the praise. He won all his headers, he made decisive tackles, amazing blocks, the ultimate centre back performance. Brilliant.
