Review:Chelsea Vs Stoke City

A game where you can quite certainly say 'A mismatch',With Chelsea Having not let in a goal since Mid April And Scoring goals till i already lost count.20 or more? I don't know.And we go to Stoke who Last met Chelsea and Ended the game with a scoreline where you better just quiet the game and have yourself a fruit farm to retire with.With already 12 goals in two games,Was this going to be another whitewash?

First half,And Chelsea Looked like they were about to go on a rampage again As An Early Strike by Ashley cole From the Left just flash past the post.Right after that,Stoke came back and were almost Rewarded With some nice skill From Ethrington to past Ferreira before releasing a cross to find Walters in which what appeared to be a miss shot caught the goalkeeper but not enough to deep under the bar.And well,Unfortunetly that appeared the last real chance for Stoke in the half As It was All Chelsea after that.All the persistent looked to have paid off,When a precise ball to Malouda Into the box Was dealt poorly by Shawcross and brought down Malouda for a penalty! Up step Lampard,The player which can score even by closing his eyes now with only 2 out of 29 missed from the spot.Can't blame Sorensen if that broke his self believe,But he did believe it was going to the left hand side And Made a good save to condemned Lampard to finally his third miss.Great start from Stoke!

It was later Drogba turn to try,Good to finally see his name.As A powerful Free kick was able to beat The wall but comfortably punch away from the keeper.AND FINALLY!!! It all finally paid of in the 32rd minute as A good pass through the middle By Of all people 'John Terry' Which actually summarize the whole Stoke quality of Attack in that half for Malouda in where he perfectly whislted the ball into the net past the out rushing goalkeeper.1-0 in the 32rd minute!Goal frenzy time? And it was almost two later with Ashely cole Connecting with a perfect volley but Slammed off the Crossbar and back into play.Thanks to a Smart cross by Drogba!

Music to Stoke Ears,As the first half whistle was blown And time for Them to Reshuffle thier attack against a team which already didn't bother About the Strikers especially Record Signing Kenwyne Jones look like some player they were forced to take from the reserves.Start of the half,Chelsea continued to Dominate with A cross from Anelka connected to Drogba's head but straight into the keeper's hands.Finally,Something to Excite Stoke as Sub Whelan prove to be a great change as he made a good run into the Chelsea's half before slamming the ball which apparently hit the bar! Would have been a goal as keeper was All over the place with that strike as he already knew he couldn't do anything about it.It All started from A interception from Obi Mikel.


Finally,both Managers couldn't be pateint anymore but to take out the players of thier's that flop during the game,Jones coming off For Fuller While Kalou on Lampard who i received news he was injured even before the game!Minutes later,Cross from Drogba To Anelka in what seem to be an Easy interception by the goalkeeper turn horrific as Mistiming caught Anelka who was dashing with all might for the ball and any simple contact would have done enough.Second penalty of the game,And with Lampard of the field,Drogba could get his name on the scoreboard and Sorensen bailing Shawcross out,Can he bail himself out this time?....Not to be! Drogba good penalty in the middle giving Chelsea a win in the bag in the 77th minute!

In what was not all that,Drogba again with a nice up field ball into the Stoke defense which dealt very badly to clear the ball and allowing Kalou to get through but not for the keeper who did brilliantly to redeemed himself by blocking the shot.So,Another easy win And that makes it 14 goals Scored and none Conceded For the blues this season so far.But there is Constant in the dressing room after that as John Terry appeared to have injured his foot after a head to head collision on the ground with Rory Delap And Also Frank Lampard who Ancelotti said had a problem which i have not gotten a clue of.For Stoke,another Lost which makes it three out of three now for the team.Time to get cracking!.Overall,Florent Malouda,Drogba And Anelka Really played well in my books! They controlled the game really well! This means bad news For Teams if Chelsea Continue their 'Unearthly' Performance
