DavidLuizFan 23 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Don't get me wrong, he had a great game with the two goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Don't think he was THAT bad for us, only was considered a flop due to the price tag IMO.Having said that before his long lay off in Avram's season he was starting to look the part then his return at the end of the season he looked impressive too, why on earth was he not brought on in extra time in Moscow and Anelka was? Sheva's CL final experience could have been invaluable.Given he was starting to show signs off his old self, i believe Scolari should have given him a chance, i still to this day think he would have been a hit if we gave him 08/09.He surely would have had a better attitude to a sudden death penalty than Anelka's lazy fucking approach... He'd of buried his for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Sheva was involved in a car crash not long after the Sweden game. Thankfully he & his pregnant girlfriend walked away unhurt. He even stopped to sign autographs afterwards... What a man.http://www.itv.com/sport/football/euro/article/2012-06-12/shevchenko-involved-in-car-accident/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker10 946 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Shevchenko is said to be interested in pursuing a coaching career after he retires, and according to reports in Ukraine, he will be offered a role working with the Chelsea youth team, along with some scouting duties in Eastern Europe.Read more: http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/football/904301-andriy-shevchenko-set-to-snub-mls-move-for-chelsea-role#ixzz1zl0iNxPJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Considering his terrible time here as a player, I'm not sure why he'd want to come back, but I'd personally love for him to.Aside from when he played for us, he was one of the best strikers I've seen play. Simple.Would be amazing to add him to our club again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Maybe he'll finally get the hug he looked like he always needed....Be a bit random to see him back but meh..hopfully work out better then play days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanicus 5,208 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Andriy Shevchenko Announces RetirementA legendary former Chlesea player has called it quits today. Granted, Andriy Shevchenko hardly lived up to legendary status at Stamford Bridge (apart from in the 'transfer flop' category, perhaps), but he was still once one of the premier strikers in all of Europe, once upon a time, and I still have fond memories of him as a player. I mean, who wasn't pretty pleased with this hit? Anyway, Sheva's timing was pretty odd -- the 35-year-old, who'd been with Dynamo Kyiv since 2009, announced said retirement during the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics. Good work, Sheva. Apparently he's going to go into politics now that his football career is over. After some effort, I've determined the strategy his future campaign managers will use:Anyone else in Ukrainian politics ever cause that to happen? No, I didn't think so. Book him that seat in Parliament, yo.PS: I don't think his time at Chelsea was anything like as bad as it's sometimes made out to be. Oh well.Source: WAGNH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Apparently, he's running for the Ukranian Parliament. Funny, never though he was the political type.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 He has been offered the managerial post of the Ukrainian national team according to their FA president. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 This explains his constant presence at our games: Sam @daspecial_1It would appear that Andriy Shevchenko's continual presence at #CFC is because he's doing his coaching badges here with the club.Not sure if that ignites or puts an end to the rumors that he will be offered some position at the club..(PS: Why am I the only posting in this thread? Feels weird.) laura90 and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,958 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 0:22 With Iva! Yes! I noticed it that night. They must be incredible friends, the hug was so long! Even last season, when Ivan scored against Napoli I think, he dedicated the goal to Sheva. Lovely. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Yep they are really close friends, Sheva helped Bane settle at the club when he came and convinced him to stay here's an old article about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 The day I meet someone who dislikes Sheva is the day I get charged with assualt: Torres take note: even though he flopped as hard you, he is loved almost universally by Chelsea fans. Food for thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I refute the notion Shevchenko flopped. Okay, he didn't score the goals anyone expected him to, but his work-rate was absolutely incredible, and I think he still scored 22 goals in something like 77 matches for us, which is a goal every 2.75 matches. Not actually that bad at all considering 21 of those appearances were off the bench. That translates to 22 in 51 starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
