Xavi Alonso, who demonstrates how effective the "flying kick in the bollox" can be at the top level of the game. Of course he is immune from yellow, and it of course red, cards. He should have had at least three in this match and three more in the final against Milan.
The year before in the same fixture Michael Ession was guilty of a similar challenge on Dietmar Hamann catching the german on the knee with his studs.
Clumsy challenge, deserved a booking.
But the ref missed in this case even though the Ref is standing a few yards away.
So SKY TV and the totally biased British sports press took up the challenge and the UEFA grandmasters handed out a three match ban to Essien.
Funnily enough very little was said about Alonso's diabolical challenge on Obi Mikel andhe got clean away with it.
He was however booked for another cynical tackle late in the game, by which time he had committed a string of unpunished fouls and should have been off from time.
"Raphel's Beneath us" tacix of roughing up Chelsea worked out fine, they spent most of the game taking it in turns to literally lay into Drogba while at the same time continually barracking the referee claiming he dived. Certainly Drogba has been guilty of "going to ground" rather too easily.
But having said that he was booed and jeered by the Chelsea fans during a couple of home fixtures last season and John Terry had word
with and told him the Chelsea fans wouldn't stand for it. Since then he has wised up.
I never ever heard anything about Liverpool ManUre's supporters getting onto their players. Oh shit and this year Chelsea were awarded a dubious penalty at Anfield, Rob Styles learnt what it means to go against the english football (mafia) press, total uproar, I guess it will be another ten years before anyone gets a penalty against Liverpool at Anfield.

  • dnt remember this :S

    whats with the song ?

  • The song is an old London Pub song called "Strolling" Chelsea fans used to sing it up till the 1970's I got it from the Chelsea Tribute CD it's sung by the 70's squad probably at the same time as "Blue is the Colour" , in the same vein as "Knees up Mother Brown" and "Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner" which were once sung by all the London Clubs fans.
