I was at this game and I gotta say Our Chelsea looked good. The movement was amazing passes were on point. Drogba's shot was one for the best of hightlight reels. The shot was a 40yrd cannon a second in as many games against italian teams, I just hope he doesn't abandon the box to start shooting from outside. Anelka looked really good playing alongside Drogba he should have gotten one. Zhikov passing was amazing and he topped it up with a goal I'm excited about his prospects now that I have seen him play. I was let down a bit by Lampard didn't take as many shots as he concentrated on feeding his strikers his passing was great but I was waiting for his signature shots. JT and Ivanovic held the the back pretty well. Ashley cole and Bosingwa as usual were flying on the wings boy can Ashley jump and run. My praise is saved Mikel he marked Ronaldinho and Seerdof very well and held the midfield very tight. I have been skeptical of his ability to play the "Makelele role" and I feel he's getting there quicker than I thought so kudos to him. With all the skill that Ronaldinho has he only managed to be beat Mikel once and I believe if ronaldinho only gets to slice you once during a game then you've done great. I would have loved to see the engine Essien but it was ok Balleti held his own. Sheva wasn't bad at all so I'm guessing he's ready to play the most expensive sub. I would have liked to see Mencienne in defense as he looked useless on the left wing. So 4 out 4 in the US is pretty good. I'm looking forward to the season and I hope we start by destroying United in the charity shield in a few weeks.
