Goals or bust as Guus Hiddink plays Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka
Simon Johnson06.05.09
Guus Hiddink is set to go for broke against Barcelona tonight and play both Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka from the start.
The Chelsea boss has decided attack is the best form of defence against the Catalans in the Champions League semi-final, second leg at Stamford Bridge.
The tie is on a knife edge after last week's goalless draw at the Nou Camp and Hiddink is expected to play Anelka on the right with Drogba in the middle.
The pair combined well together in the 3-1 win against Fulham last Saturday and did enough to convince Hiddink to unleash them against Barcelona.
It means there is no place in the side for John Obi Mikel, who was part of the defensive rearguard that worked so well in the first leg.
Michael Essien is now set to play with Michael Ballack as holding midfielders with Frank Lampard further forward.
Ashley Cole will come into the team after being suspended last week while Jose Bosingwa switches to right-back.
