Drogba the loser as Torres and Anelka bed in up front
Chelsea, out of the FA Cup and trailing leaders Manchester United by 12 points in the Premier League, needed a good result and, just as importantly, needed to find some cohesion.

They got both via Ancelotti's decision to revert to a 4-4-2 formation that accommodated Fernando Torres and Nicolas Anelka but left Didier Drogba out in the cold.

If he maintains the 4-4-2 system, with Drogba again on the bench, he runs a double risk. The most obvious result could be a three-month sulk from his former main striker, not something he can afford as he continues the delicate task of bedding in Torres and keeping up morale
