Keep Grant, sell Drogba - and Chelsea will be champions

After watching last night's Champions League final, Sportingo's neutral observer Ze'ev Rozov believes the Blues need only make a few tweaks to make that step up from runners-up.

Just for the record, I am neither a Chelsea nor a Manchester United fan. I watched last night's Champions League final with another 100 or so people at an office party, and as a general sports fan feel the pain of all you disappointed Blues fans.

'I believe Grant deserves a lot more credit for this game than he was given'

I predicted United would win - I even called the score after 90 minutes (although I bet the Reds would win in extra time) - and like the majority of the readers of Sportingo, expected a big night for Sir Alex Ferguson's team.

After the first 30 minutes, the only question was how badly Chelsea would lose. But Avram Grant found an answer to the mighty Reds attack and after half-time Chelsea, and particularly Michael Ballack, seemed much more determined to win the game.

I believe Grant deserves a lot more credit for this game than he was given, and if he gets the chance, he can build an even better Chelsea team with Ballack at its centre, one that can outclass Manchester United, who seemed so unbeatable only a month ago.

I totally agree! Drogba is a complete t**t!! How can you begin to fathem why someone would slap an oppression player with 4mins of extra time to go? I think he cost Chelsea the champion’s league! And they shouldn’t even sell him! Let him rot in the reserves for a year then sell him!! As for Avram it seems the vultures are circling and no matter what he does he can’t win! If he's successful it will be all down to the players and if he fails he gets a barrage of criticism! Too many Chelsea fans/Media can’t stop living in the past and cannot forget the special one! Let’s not forget Mourinhio didn’t get to the CL final, nor did he win the prem last season, plus he left Chelsea in 6thplace after a 1.1 draw with Rosenberg!!

Ok....maybe we can sell drogba because we have like 5 other strikers to choose from.....anelka, shevchenko, malouda, kalou and we could stick in joe cole..... so we could afford the expense of didier..... but avram 'retard' grant!!!!!!!! uh no!!!! we want back jose...and i am sorry to say this however jose wil not come back,,,because freaking ambramovich had to insult him so bad...... well anyways....avram to me never really cared about chelsea winning...he just wanted personal credit.......he wanted to do what the special one couln't do....or shall i say...what the special one never got time to do........
