We need to focus on us – not Mourinho

AS awful as Saturday’s performance against Wolves was, it was still heartening to know that we can play badly and grind out a victory – something which we were once past masters at.

The goals also showed that we can score in a number of ways, be it a brilliant, pacy, passing move involving a number of players, or a punt up to the big lad up front.

The win owed as much to Cech’s rediscovered form as it did to Drogba’s ubiquitous talent, saving as he did two certain goals. Ancelotti needs to make a decision about this diamond, once and for all – allegedly, it was the formation we were playing on Saturday, not that you could really tell as the players were all over the place. Anelka especially – I swear he was playing almost at left back at one point. It didn’t help having a makeshift back four, and Lampard will always be a miss even when not having his best season, but the players are still looking out to the wings when in possession in the middle only to see empty green grass.
