The good the quiet and the unlucky

Chelsea are in good form – But a 3-1 win over Tottenham came at a price,

Deco was relatively quiet on his debut – but Brazilian star Kaka made his mark on 64 mins,

And even Drogba notched his 8^th of the season in the 83^rd minute,

But all this was over shadowed by King’s tackle which saw Lucio stretchered off,

Paul Brown was furious that King was only shown a yellow card – and the worst news came after the game, Lucio has a suspected Broken Leg which will see him out for a long time,

It’s back to the drawing board for Chelsea who now have a Defender crisis – with Bridge and Carvalho also out for a long time.
