Jewell: Chuffed with Chopra

Jewell: Chuffed with Chopra

The duo combined to help clinch all three points in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Cardiff - a fourth successive victory for resurgent Town.

Martin's brace made it three goals in four games for the midfielder while Chopra chipped in with the other to record his fifth in the same period, including matchwinners against Coventry and Portsmouth.

"Lee and Chops are linking up well and are both looking really sharp," Jewell told the club's official website. "Chops has found his feet in front of goal again and Lee is playing with a lot of energy, but I can say that about all the lads.

"I have been impressed with our defending recently, which has been epitomised by the likes of Lee, Chops and Daryl Murphy defending from the front and closing people down."

xcellent decision, probably one of VERY few footballers who will be remembered as leaving the club after scoring the champions league winning goal with his very last kick! Not many get that tag in football!

Drogba confirms Blues departure

T

his is for the best, his hunger would be in serious question now after winning everything with us. A true Chelsea legend, up there with Osgood and Zola, come back and see us now and then Didier. And as Martin Tyler said on Saturday night....he is immortal at Chelsea. What a way to go out eh....Good luck big man wherever you land next.

ne of the many delights of the final few seconds of the season was seeing little Mike Owen with his trackie off and full replica kit on, getting ready to celebrate having contributed NOTHING all season. Would have been on a par with Terry's carry-on in Munich.
