MOTM vs West Ham

[loz]

Should have saved on database space and not typed Deco

[abramovich]

Cech for me.

We would have lost it in the end if it wasn't for his save. Sad really how our standards have fallen. Saved a point at home against West f**king Ham.

[loz]

Mikel for me. The only competition being Joe Cole. Both players who didn't finish the game - ridiculous.

[aliboy66]

Someone not sure who yet,i know the tittles there for the taking looks like no one taking charge,we had enough chances to win this one this is football yeah

[4EVERCHELSEA]

GIANFRANCO ZOLA!!!!!

f**k the rest of those "so called" chelsea players

[PloKoon13]

Drogba for me. Transformed our attack as soon as he came on.

We went from one shot on target in 45 minutes before he came on...

...to a goal five minutes after he came on. If he'd played from the start... we might well have bagged all three points.

[BlueBosnian]

Cole... Carlton.

[Chippy]

Mikel, I could half understand Belletti coming on for him but he gets my vote nonetheless.

I couldn't understand Kalou for Joe and wondered why Deco wasn't subbed for Kalou so Joe and Kalou could give us some width.

[Virosh]

Mikel by every possible stretch of the imagination. Honourable mention goes to Joey and Lampard.

Whoever voted for Bosingwa is ... I don't know, words fail me. I am too pissed to think clearly right now.

[blizeH]

Scott Parker and Frank Lampard.

Two votes for Bosingwa? lol, the only player who came close to being as bad as Deco.

[BlueBosnian]

I didn't vote for anyone yet, but as far as Bosingwa goes, I thought he did better than half the team.

[bjd]

Scotty Parker, Matty Upson or Carlton f**king Cole.

Out of our lot ? Cech for getting down to that shot from Cole at the end.

If he hadnt have done that id be doing a Michael Douglas in Falling Down right about now.

[Modueke]

Frank Lampard

[Kerry]

I miss Mike Riley.

Should have saved on database space and just typed Mikel.

I would have done but I felt it was wrong to deny you a vote.

I vote for him every week. I thought that was the idea.

[Englishman]

Cech - stopped a poor result being downright embarrassing. Honourable mention for Joe Cole.

Drogba for me. Although he only played 45 minutes and about half of it been quality. We looked like scoring after his first touch on the field, really should have started even if he was only fit for 45 minutes.

Mikel was very good, Cech made a few saves to got us a point.

Alex deserve 3/10, Deco 2/10, and Scolari 1/10! ;)

Overall man of the match would have to be Carlton Cole, he was immense today and maybe showed many 'experienced' managers that if you give them the right coaching and guidance you can bring out the best in a player. Shame on Jose for letting him go.

I wouldn't go as far as that. Carlton Cole has been very very poor more times than he has been average and that has been the case for season upon season. His problem is one of attitude and one good game against us doesn't get anywhere near proving that a little careful management would make him either good or consistent.

I grant you his previous history but under Franco he has thrived this season (I've watched him a few times and he's been pretty much their best player this season since Franco went there) and is getting better with each game because Franco seems to know how to handle him and this is the point I'm making.

Well, Brian M always predicted he was going to be the Black Peter Osgood.

And as we all know he was a man who knew a bit about strikers.

Hmmm, think I'll withdraw quickly (something Loz ain't very good at apparently).

You have maybe got lucky in terms of the games you have seen as I have seen him a number of times this season and he has been awful. Large numbers of West Ham fans (granted not the sort to place much faith in, if they aren't blowing celebrity monkeys they are running a fairground that wouldn't pass health and safety standards and robbing your garden shed) have been crying out for him to be dropped from the first team this season.
