Pretty strange decision by Mourinho to replace Carvalho with Lampard against Bolton as everyone knows Bolton only play the ball in the air and look for set play type of goals. So for him to put Essien back in central defence was an error as it was Essien who has shown on too many occasions that though he is competent as a central defender in taking balls off players, he is incompetent when it comes to positional sense during set plays.Why Mourinho did not bring on Boularouz is a mystery cos u need tall central defenders against Bolton. This is it as far as the premiership goes as Chelsea had their chance against Newcastle and blew it and their chronic lack of genuine attacking options have cost them dear. Too many of their players for me are just average including kalou, Obi Mikel and the decidedly poor Geremi. Without Carvalho, they may be in serious peril against liverpool tomorrow as well. Even if Man city do the impossible and derail man united, can this chelsea side beat arsenal at home? I don't think so
I wish man united wins the league by goal difference so Mourinho can be punished for not putting out an attacking side and just wanting to win but not score enough goals
