apparently u dont watch the full chelsea matches, probably only the highlites, he has contributed significantly to chelsea's recent run, He has played really well, checking back making successfull takles, setting up teammates, scored beautiful tough angled goal against arse & birmingham.
Obviously this season will be tough for him, as he will be played pretty tight, double teamed all the time, but he's performances the last four games have been pretty efficient.
When he come on against man city midweek, he played part of the game winning goal by Joe Cole! so he has helped Chelsea secure maximum points!
