Chelsea Vs Liverpool 2nd Leg

So the 2nd leg was last night, and what a game it was.

I think Chelsea deserved the win ultimately, and it should have been more comfortable scoreline wise if it wasnt for a Petr Cech uncharacteristic mistake on Babel's shot and goal...

Drogba was immense, as were Essien, Lampard and Ballack. We fashioned loads of chances, and should have killed the game in the first half (most notably Ballack's free kick). But we went off the boil a little in the 2nd, and almost paid for it.

Now as far as Grant goes, I think he picked the exact right team to begin, and subbed correctly when he took off Cole for Anelka. But I would say this...I think he should have taken off Cole a lot earlier, rather than Kalou for Malouda. And then his Sheva for Lamps sub was madness.

So there was enough there to still worry about Grant as a manager, but enough to be positive. Ultimately, with a team like we have, its more a case of go out and play than anything else.

Great game though, 3 goals in extra time. A lot of fun to watch. Should be a great final..
