Chelsea vs Southampton: The first 13 seconds don't count

Difficult to tell if Terry or Ivanovic is more excited here

Like quickly tearing off a plaster, let's get this bit of the match done and over with … Michael Essien had a bit of a 'mare on Sunday. Not only did he forget that the match had actually started as he assisted Southampton's opening (and only) goal, but then only went and got himself booked for diving. The ridiculous dive was an obvious attempt to help everyone of the Chelsea faithful forget the initial 13 seconds. To be fair to the Bison, with the match that Michael Oliver had, he may well have called it as a fouled. 

Now that's over, we shall never speak of Essien's performance against Southampton again. Ever.
