Galatasaray are not out of it. I would have thought Chelsea would have gone and won this and put themselves in safe position for the return leg, but although they have that away goal and are winning this tie currently...the way in which Galatasaray played is proof that they and Drogba can cause Jose some headaches in West London.
Mourinho would have loved how Mancini set his team up at the start which played very well to them as they created, found space and took the lead. Only when Mancini put more meat in the midfield that you saw Chelsea get forced back and Drogba SHOWED HIS INTENSITY of old by really linking play, turning, hustling and coming close to scoring when the captain SOMEHOW hit the bar from a few yards away.
This was a match that Galatasaray SHOULD have won as they had the chances to do so. Chelsea again had the striker problem and looked lost when trying to go forward and create anything. Blondie may have scored but did nothing after that and Eto'o....ya....
Chelsea should see themselves through but Galatasaray have some faith. Drogba loves Chelsea and has great memories there, but how he played in this match showed he was not friends on that pitch. Going BACK to the Bridge will be emotional, but Drogba is a professional and if I was to put money on anyone scoring in that match...it would be Drogba. He just has that in him to score during these situations, and to come up with the goods when need be. Chelsea fans dare not say SHIT to him as this man delivered them the Champions League prize and he is rightfully a legend there and will remain one for ALL TIME. I am backing my boy Mourinho...but THIS is probably going to be the most interesting second leg out of all the matches to be played.
