Owing to the reading group meeting, rather than the Barcelona-AC Milan CL semi, I didn't see this game. The win, despite making eight changes, and our London jinx, is particularly welcome given that West Ham will be our opponents in the FA Cup Final. It's amazing how Cisse looked like he'd never seen a football against Chelsea, yet scored twice to win us the game today.
The big talking point is, of course, Garcia's red card. Hopefully it will be rescinded, as he's a big game player and - bar Fowler (cup-tied) - probably our biggest goal threat. We might need him to change the game, or at least provide that spark. Still, on the other hand, if not both sides will still be missing a player - and our squad should be stronger than West Ham's.
