Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314 welcomed Andre Villas-Boas’ Chelsea to Loftus Road Stadium in the fourth round of the FA Cup, where Juan Mata’s penalty sealed the Blues’ place in the fifth round.
Bettor.com rates the Chelsea players.

The Czech goalkeeper was hardly tested in the first period and played his part by distributing the ball well. Made a good save on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 progressed.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Branislav-Ivanovic-c7994 – 7
As expected, he was strong and assured in defence. Did not venture forward with Wright Phillips attacking down his side, though, held up well against the former Chelsea winger.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Luiz-c10542 – 7.5
The young Brazilian has bags full of potential and that showed again. Was assured in defence and showed calmness alongside http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895. However, he has the tendency to try the audacious , something he needs to curb down at top level football.
John Terry – 8
Boldly faced the boos echoing around the stadium, as his performance hardly showed any nerves at all. Was on the top of his game as only thin air slipped through him.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ashley-Cole-c6809 – 6.5
Tried his best to link-up with Malouda but not much output was produced on his end. A few of the tackles were crunching and timely, though.

He must be the first name on Villas-Boas’ team sheet by now, but the manager would be sweating over his injury that could see him sidelined up to two months. On the pitch, he was his usual warrior self, covering every inch of grass and getting close to scoring
for his side.

The Frenchman is clearly on a downward spiral; his time at the Bridge is at its end. Failed to beat Young on a few occasions he had the freedom to run at the opposition defence, though, linked up well with the marauding Cole. Much more needs to come from
his if he is to extend his stay under Villas Boas.
