The only think I can do after the last performances is to take my eyes out so I don't have to watch it anymore...
More to come later, maybe, if I ever recover from this !

Blackburn 1 x 0 Chelsea - Very close...

Hello, sorry for neglecting the blog for a couple of weeks, as Mr Footy said bellow we were in Brazil. We did watch the games there but didn't have much time to write the blog...
Anyway, after that good win against Arsenal we had the following results:
Aston Villa 0 - 0 Chelsea : I was expecting that, always hard playing Villa away.
Chelsea 2 - 0 Wolves : Not the easiest of games in the end but an important win.
Now for the most recent one, Blackburn. I know Blackburn away is a hard game but I wasn't going to be happy with less than a win here. So it's not surprising the midway through the first half I got pretty upset. A strong header from Benjani put the Rovers upfront.
Gladly it didn't last long. After a very long and smart goal kick from Cech, Malouda crosses a ball to double marked Drogba, who beats his two defenders to nod down a ball to Anelka's feet to level the score.
I wasn't happy at all on half time with Blackburn playing slightly better than us. The second half started with opportunities for both teams but I though Chelsea started playing better and when Daniel Sturridge came in and almost scored on his first touch I was getting very hopefull that we could win this and we did. At 84 minutes of the second half Ivanovic put in strong header at the far post after Zhirkov cross, for my relief and happiness.
And that was it, a great and well needed result to keep us top of the league !!! A bit scary that we let Blackburn play for most of the game but we came back. Hopefully we won't do that against Liverpool on the weekend. I know they are in poor form this season but we are playing at Anfield and I think this is going to be a tough one !
At Wednesday we are playing Spartak Moscow at home and I think Carlo might rest some players but it shouldn't be much of a problem, I hope so.
See you all soon,
Mrs Footy
