You know something must be wrong when the 1st choice Substitute is Ramires. The commentator also said something that goes "Ramires looks like a stick, how on earth is he a defensive midfielder?"
Anyway, I think Arsenal got their lucky break when the last 2 goals Chelsea conceded was largely due to error. Essien's mistake in tackling caused the 2nd goal while Malouda was caught in possession in the 1st.
I thought Ancelotti look damn lost at the touchline when Arsenal hit them on the break. He doesn't seem to have a plan B. Oh yeah, plan B is to introduce Ramires?! Kakuta is still so raw, he cant seem to find a way past Arsenal's defence at all. Bosingwa is also another strange substitution because it's obvious that Drogba is stuggling to find supplies from midfield area. I thought a wiser decision would be to have Daniel Sturridge on but he's not even on the bench!
When you are given a wooden spoon to dig a mountain and the wooden spoon is broken, I am sure you will look lost too..Lol .. Oh well, I guess I am exaggerating it haha..
But so far it seems like the young substitue players Sturridge or Kakuta are no way near ready to at least stand in temporarily for the first teamers like Drogba or Anelka. Fabio Borini, Josh MacEacharan, Jeffrey Bruma and Patrick van Aanholt are young players whom hardly have a sniff of even being subs. Where has players like Benayoun gone to I wonder.On the other hand, Man Utd, are able to call the likes of the young but effective Javier Hernandez as well as young but quite experience players like Darren Gibson or Fedrico Macheda and during a certain time Johnny Evans to stand in for Berbatov, Rooney, Ferdinand, Giggs et al.. Man Utd has a good mix of youth and experience.
At Chelsea, the problem of having a sugar daddy to pump in the cash to bring in quality players has now become apparent. Youth development is neglected because incrediluous amount of money can be used to bring in the quality. One day when the owner decides not to invest so much in the club, they will be unable to call upon their youth...nor be able to bring in/replenish quality re-enforcements. Chelsea are in this state now, make do with neither youth (admit it, Macheda, Hernandez, Gibson, Evans have far too much experience compared to Kakuta, Bruma, Van Aanholt or Borini) nor new faces (barred the ineffective Ramires). -
how talking big backfires

well on a sidenote, i think man city will get 2nd or 3rd placing this season. They are really improving and getting more teamwork. They just thrased villa 4-0. Next season they will seriously be challengers.

The supposing subsitiutes such as Zhirkov, Benayoun and Anelka are all INJURIED. Thats why you see youngsters sitting on the bench.
