Shevchenko Chelsea Dream

Andriy Shevchenko, the dashing Ukranian striker, has left Chelsea after spending three unsuccessful years in the club. The man Chelsea bought for a club record 30 million pounds failed to make any impression at the Premier League stage.

When Shevchenko joined the Blues at Stamford Bridge, they had already won two Premier League titles in row. But Chelsea's bid for a third successive premier league title was dealt a blow when their record summer signing only produced four goals during the whole season. His unconvincing performances meant he was not a regular part of the team, and that prompted him to take a leave from Chelsea football club.

Before moving to the London club, Shevchenko had a great time at AC Milan where he scored 127 goals in the 208 appearances he made for the Italian club. That was the point that made the Shevchenko we know today. He has also represented his home country Ukraine in 79 international matches. That type of success eluded him at the English Premier League. Carlo Ancelotti, the Chelsea manager, has sympathised with Shevchenko saying due to injury and form, he could not be a regular part of the team. He has wished him Best of Luck for his future and has said that the move to Andriy's old club Dynamo Kiev could well prove to be a very useful one.
