The Liverpool confirmed in Stamford Bridge that this season does not give the stature before rivals of its category (2-0). The goals of Anelka and Malouda supposed the third defeat of the equipment of Rafa Benítez, that came to chain four triumphs before rivals of the low part of the table, without clear options this time to remove something positive before the powerful Chelsea.

The Londoners consolidate this way in the leadership of the Premier, where still they have not let save a point of his stage. Drogba was decisive in the victory with the attendances of both goals, both in the final straight line of afternoon, the second with a precious personal action in the right flank of the attack.

The duel, too tactical between two equipment that is known in detail, was not looked in anything like the spectacular return of past Champions (4-4) and as soon as there was danger in the areas. Fernando Towers, very watched over John Terry, only knew a clearly option to mark, when a center of Dirk Kuyt at the hands of Hilario shaked one's head.

“Reds” returned to in center accuse their lack of creation from the field, with too much advanced Gerrard and without being able to contribute intuition to the pair Mascherano-Lucas Leiva. Indeed, a loss of the Argentinean at the time of game unbalanced the party, since Drogba gained the action to Glen Johnson, centered from the left and Anelka raised the ball with the ankle to surpass Queen.

Shortly after the disadvantage, Benítez seated to Would laugh and gave an opportunity to Benayoun, but nothing changed. Already in the discount, another great play of Drogba, this time by the right flank, was culminated by its Malouda compatriot to close the seventh triumph in eight parties of the group of Ancelotti, that came to fall the past week in the JJB Stadium before the Wigan (3-1).

On the other hand, one is the third defeat of the Liverpool in a loose starting of season, where also it yielded before Tottenham, Aston Villa and Fiorentina, the three groups of more organization with those than cruzado is had. An inverse tendency to the one of the past season, where it dominated powerful equipment and one left many points before adversaries of smaller organization.
