loz Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I will make this the official MOTM thread so have removed Grant and Dunne - if you had already voted it will clear those votes and you will need to vote again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Englishman Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Anelka. A constant menace and deserved a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizeH Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Anelka; everything except a goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loz Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Anelka a clear MOTM for me. He was head and shoulders above everyone else on the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coco Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Anelka, Kalou and Essien. I went for Kalou, a striker that scores ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea FC Champions Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 For me: 1.Anelka -Got in behind the City defense time after time in a rare start in his favored position up front. 2.Essien-kept running 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loz Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Only real negative point to Anelka's game today was the number of times he was caught offside although admittedly watching on the stream made it harder to tell if the linesman got it right in the majority of occasions. Also could be as a result of lack of match sharpness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also could be as a result of lack of match sharpness. Yeah about an hour into the game he got caught offside about 4 times in a 5-10 minute spell.

Chippy Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Only seen the highlights but from what they showed I would give it to Anelka, his movement pulls defenders all over the place and he is very unselfish, It looked from what I saw that we were pretty good second half.

coco Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Anelka, his movement pulls defenders all over the place and he is very unselfish. Yep Chippy bang on ! Thats his secret weapon, he is so good at making those runs away from goal, pulling out defenders, see the 2nd goal against Ars for prime example.

Scott Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Well at least someone else voted Kalou with me. Officially Anelka was offsides 18 times today it could be a Prem record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also could be as a result of lack of match sharpness. I saw that as well Loz, but on a number of occassions the commentator said that Anelka was onside. I thought he was very good today and barring Joe Hart and Onohua he would have had a goal or two to his name in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorhead Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 only seen match of the day but plenty of action involving anelka so he gets my vote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalpitv Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Anelka for me. But I believe, Essien and Cudicini desrve the accolades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim W Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Carlo made a couple of good saves at the end of the first half to keep it at 0-1 when Citeh were pushing, if we had gone in 1-1 - the end reason may have been very different as I finishing at the moment is piss-poor.

ethicalstrategy Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Well, I haven't seen the full 90 mins yet, but on what I have seen it looked like Frank was excellent, playing in Anelka on a number of occasions with some super little passes.
