    Instead of making a striker's run, Anelka is hugging the touchline......./facepalm

    Why does Anelka look to hit crossfield balls from about 30 yards. It makes no sense, and smacks of lack of confidence. Take on the defender and get in the box. We play with our two least dynamic attackers and both of them spread wide to play as wingers with no one in the box. The "runners" from midfield are not quick by any means and Atletico can easily mark them with the two CB's and Assuncao. I would love to see Sturridge on.

    what doesn't make sense is that Anelka would actually take on a defender :D

    So predictable. Why are we crossing? There is no one who can win the ball in the box. We need people willing to dribble close to the 18 yard box and cut inside to shoot. Anelka is dropping to the center circle too often and Kalou is alone in the box.

    Honestly, the guy is a anomally. Given so many gifts but to much of a crab to try anything. Its not laziness per se. Just fear. My goodness we would look 2x as dangerous if he actually took on the full back from right.

    Anelka.....YOU, ARE, A, STRIKER. You make these cool runs into that large box around the goal.

    He is clever because with Drogba he knows he can make those runs as Drogba is always occupying the defenders, however the fact that Kalou is not much of a threat, Anelka is trying to find more ways to get involved in play instead of maximizing the attack by getting in the box. If he's going to be out wide then he should attack. If not, get in the box.

    Well it seems Ballack, Deco, and Lampard have officially given up and are trying to do things amongst themselves.

    Decent shot by Kalou but really should have shot far post. The ball would have fallen into the path of Anelka.

    Even though he was off, Kalou misses another complete sitter.

    Good balls in by Frank and Ashley.

    I'll give credit to Kalou for scoring but he really came close to taking it over the bar from 5 feet out.
