Chelsea dumped out of Carling Cup by Blackburn

Dec 3, 2009

Just as the media near enough awarded Chelsea the Premiership title, Blackburn dumped them out of the Carling Cup. The match ended 3-3 and Blackburn won on penalties. To make matters worse it was Chelsea’s controversial signing Gael Kakuta that had his penaly saved!

Chelsea fielded a weakened team, but it was still a very strong side. They had to bring on striker Didier Drogba to keep them in the match. Could this be a warning of the problems Chelsea could face during the African Cup of Nations in January?
