THEY say it's hard to keep a good man down.
Well, it's harder even to imagine what ails Andriy Shevchenko. It can't be the English weather? After all, he's been to Europe with Chelsea but it didn't make much of a difference. So, what's with the big man? Is he carrying a dead leg? Has he suddenly become cross-eyed in front of goal? Something's wrong. A 630 million ($89m) striker doesn't suddenly become soft. But that's exactly what we've been seeing. Brought over from AC Milan to plunder the net, the paid assassin has suddenly become a dud. So far he has been lucky. Chelsea players have come up in support of their misfiring colleague. But for how long? Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and John Obi Mikel all tried to boost the Ukrainian but it didn't seem to make a scrap of difference against Aston Villa on Saturday. He was, like he has been since scoring against Boro on 23 Aug, a shy reflection of the sturdy, nimble-footed Ukranian who made great things happen for AC Milan in the Italian League. Drogba, who scored Chelsea's only goal against Villa, did not abandon his strike partner. Indeed, he said Shevchenko's arrival at Stamford Bridge was 'what the doctor ordered'. 'It gave me a huge injection of confidence,' said the Ivory Coast striker. At last, it was back to the system I was most accustomed to. There was Sheva and there was me. Two strikers. 'So far I have been the one who has scored the goals but I'm sure Sheva will start scoring very soon. Yes, we shouldn't be too harsh on him. The goals will come. He is that sort of player.' Speaking on Match of the Day, former Liverpool and Scotland star Alan Hansen saw it differently and he seemed to come close to the mark when he said: 'He is heavy-legged. I don't think he can run that fast. 'At the World Cup, he'd been out for a long time and the argument was that he wasn't fit. 'I keep on hearing that he's going to score goals. I'm not so sure. So far he has not been great and when Michael Ballack and Joe Cole come back, I'm not sure he's going to play.' Carlo Ancelotti, his coach at Milan, had kind words for his former striker and said he just needed time to find his feet at Chelsea. 'This is natural,' he said. 'It happens to anyone who changes environment after many years. He has to adjust.' Others were not so sympathetic. Kakha Kaladze, Shevchenko's good buddy at AC Milan, had warned his friend that it was not going to be easy in England. 'I told him he was making a massive mistake signing for Chelsea,' said Kaladze. 'But I didn't push him to reject the offer. 'Now it breaks my heart to see him playing this way. He was a goal-scoring legend at the San Siro. Now he is a shell of his old self.' Right now, most seem to be leaning on the side of tolerance. But, the question is, for how long? |

All that was missing today was the Milan jersey on his back, thats how good he was .. If he's gonna score, it's gonna be today ! |

i think he's too anxious to kiss the Chelsea jersey, that he can't keep his mind on the present.
