Sheva misses, Chelsea in jinx for the Cup finale
Only a couple of days result in a dreadful nightmare for the Blues (versus Arsenal that ended in a draw) that witnessed the double Premiership Champions lose the title to Manchester United, failing to seize the title for the third time in a row – here comes another massive blow for Mourinho and his co mates.
Chelsea renowned striker Andriy Shevchenko will be subjected to a hernia operation today and is likely to miss the FA Cup final. The surgery was scheduled to take place at the end of the season but due to reoccurring pain – Chelsea’s medical department and staff has rescheduled it.
He may have certain advantage with the Portuguese boss at Stamford Bridge but when it comes to the skill on field and the talent to convert for the cause - the multi million-dollar – Ukrainian power packed house is a true phenomenon in soccer. However, Chelsea is sure to cry at its fate now.
Majority think that Sheva has had a disappointing debut campaign in English football – as the Ukrainian international has struggled to find the correct rhythm and passion that the striker had shown in Serie A. Certainly, it isn’t the new instance of the sort – English football league is the most challenging and demanding league in world football today and perhaps that’s what has kept it at the peak when it comes to the major European titles and this is the reason that majority struggle to find the effective pace early in England.
The injury had kept Andriy Shevchenko isolated from the squad for the last two matches that the Blues played – and unluckily, for them both coasting on important junctures (one the finals place in the Champions League and the other is the Premiership title).
His non-existence in the last decisive game of the season for Chelsea at the newly originated Wembley Stadium is surely a big blow for the chelsea club and the loss means Blues will rely a huge amount on its Sheva’s strike partner Didier Drogba in the FA Cup final.
