Although Chelsea are very well served by midfield players they will be rocked by the news that Michael Essien will be out for at least five months with a serious knee injury.
Essien ruptured an anterior cruciate ligament during Ghana’s World Cup qualifier in Libya last Friday.
Chelsea have several world class midfield players within their ranks but none of them would bring to the team exactly what Essien does. He has established himself as one of the best players of his type in the world and will be sorely missed.

*dances* I wish Chelsea become a hospital and all there greedy stars injured for a year
i will be very glad if essien will be fit for the match between man u and chelsea…………but it has happen to it that, he is going to play for about five month .
due to this situation i will encourage the fans to pray for him to recover early if they want good football in chelsea……….i wish all the blues good luck butman u is the best now…………
am a fan of man u which i will encourage the blues fans to join as ……… long live man u .long live chelsea
Hating Chelsea is one thing; wishing ill on Essien or any players is wrong.
