Summer69 spot on with the Sagbo critique, never won a header all the game and never in the box when crosses came in, not that many came in.
Elmo! There's sometimes so much negative stuff on here about players and games - lets be positive! I rarely see games so rarely post as I'm usually totally ignorant - best I do most games is live text and sometimes a painfully slow stream, but the Chelsea game I saw, albeit in a bar, no sound, music playing, 12 inch tv 4 metres away, but, for me it was an absolute 'delight' (to use use Brucie's word) to see the way Elmo gave Cole a hell of a game, and pissed him off no end! Ok, Cole is past his best but Elmo is hardly a world beater. As well as cole it was also pissing off most of the other people watching who were all Chelsea supporters! Nice one Elmo!
Elmo has grown into the EPL and improved, he is a bit vunerable defensively, but I think SB has coached him the art of the defensive side of the game, and he is getting better. Overall he has a great attitude, and he really wound Moyes up against Manure, and gave Cole a real run for his money.
