Chelsea - Essien Takes the Honours!

Rather than get in a right old two and eight and fall behind and then having to publish a backlog of our Man-of-the-Match poll results, I`ve promised myself I`ll get a grip and keep them up to date on a match by match basis.

Therefore, with a fixture against FC Porto looming large, I suppose I`d better keep my end of the deal and reveal the front page poll results for the recent match against Wolverhampton Wanderers, whilst also updating the overall ratings.

So without further ado, here are the top five, as voted for by you, from the game last Saturday,

1st - Michael Essien - 61% = 5 points

2nd - Gael Kakuta - 13% = 4 points

3rd - Florent Malouda - 10% = 3 points

4th - Petr Cech - 6% = 2 points

5th - Joe Cole - 3% = 1 point

Which, in turn, has the following effect on our complete table for the season,

1st - Didier Drogba - 44 points

2nd - Michael Ballack - 42.5 points

3rd - Petr Cech - 37 points

4th - Michael Essien - 32 points

5th - Frank Lampard - 21.5 points

6th - Nicolas Anelka - 16.5 points

7th - Branislav Ivanovic - 13 points

8th - Ricardo Carvalho - 11 points

=9th - Ashley Cole - 10 points

=9th - John Terry - 10 points

=11th - Henrique Hilario - 9 points

=11th - Deco - 9 points

13th - Joe Cole - 8 points

=14th - Jose Bosingwa - 6 points

=14th - Salomon Klaou - 6 points

=16th - Florent Malouda - 4 points

=16th - Gael Kakuta - 4 points

=18th - John Obi Mikel - 3 points
