His head had dropped on to the table in front when he heard the result read out. 埃辛表示："我真的很惊讶。"当他听到结果读出来的时候，他的头深深的低在了桌子上。 'I am really happy for this though. I have to thank the fans and the credit goes to my team-mates. They have been fantastic this season.' "但我真的为这个结果开心，我要感谢球迷以及队友对我的信任，这个赛季他们的表现太 出色了。" Though taken aback, he had a good idea why he has been so appreciated by the fans. 不过获奖之後，他很好的解释了为什麽他会受到球迷的青睐。 'I have had to fill in a lot of space, right-back, centre-half, and I did everything for the team. We are all happy for the season. I have enjoyed every moment of it. It has been really hard for us and I think we deserve credit.' "我打了许多位置，右後卫、中卫，我为球队付出了所有，整个赛季我们都很开心，我也 很享受这种生活，这个赛季对於我们来说实在是太艰难了，我觉得我们应该得到球迷的信 任。" ceremony commenced with the supporters' vote on Goal of the Season. His 35-yard thunderbolt against Arsenal at Stamford Bridge in December topped the poll. 当典礼宣布球迷们投票选出的年度最佳进球时，埃辛的确得到了球迷的广泛信任，他在12 月份主场对阵阿森纳中的一脚35码外的轰门被选为最佳进球。 'I meant to do it,' he confirmed. 'I called to Frank [Lampard], he gave me the ball and the first thing that came into my mind was to shoot. They are one of our big rivals so to score a fantastic goal against them is nice. But I am surprised it won.' "当时我已经准备好射门了，"埃辛确定的说："我向兰帕德要球，他把球传给了我，我的 第一反应就是射门，阿森纳是我们重要的竞争对手，所以能以这样精彩的一脚射门击败他 们再好不过了。但是我没想到这个球竟然被选为最佳。" The best goal award had been presented by BBC Match of the Day's Gary Lineker. 赛季最佳进球由BBC比赛日节目主持人Gary Lineker颁奖。 For the main Player of the Year accolade, Essien had beaten competition from Didier Drogba and Ricardo Carvalho, the two other nominees by most votes gained. 在赛季最佳球员的评选中，埃辛击败了队友德罗巴和卡瓦略，这两位竞争者的也赢得了 球迷的不少投票。 Charlie Cooke, a double Chelsea Player of the Year from 1968 and 1975, paid tribute to that achievement. 曾在1968年和1975年两次荣获切尔西最佳球员的查理.库克对本年的最佳球员表示了赞赏。 'I think it could have been any of them but you have to say well deserved Michael Essien. He's such a powerful player that you could play him almost anywhere in defence and midfield and he is going to do a good job. In the midfield, no doubt at all - world class.' "我认为他们三个都有机会，但你不得不说埃辛略胜一筹，他是一名如此强大的球员，你 可以让他踢後卫和中场的任何一个位置，无论在哪里，他的表现都很出色，而在中场， 毫无疑问，他是世界级的球员。" Cooke was there to hand over the adidas Chelsea Young Player of the Year award which went to another African - John Mikel Obi. 之後库克把由阿迪达斯赞助的切尔西年度最佳新秀奖颁给了另外一个非洲人--米克尔。 'I am happy with the way I am improving at Chelsea and I made the right choice in coming here,' said the 20-year-old Nigerian after the quality in his first season in London had been recognised. 这位20岁的尼日利亚人在来到伦敦的第一个赛季就被大家所认同，他表示："我很高兴自 己在切尔西得到了提高，同时我也为自己选择来到切尔西而高兴。" 'The manager and the rest of the players have been very nice to me and I want to thank the manager for giving me the opportunity to prove myself even though we have lots of big players here.' "主教练以及其他队友对我都非常好，我也要感谢主教练，尽管队中有很多球星，他还是 给了我证明自己能力的机会。" There was consolation for Drogba for missing out on the main honour when his team-mates, and the staff he works with day-to-day at the training ground, chose the team's top scorer as Samsung Players' Player of the Year. 虽然德罗巴在年度最佳球员中落选，但是他也得到了安慰，他的队友以及每天都相处的 训练基地的工作人员推选这位元队内最佳射手当选今年的最佳"三星球员"。 'It means a lot for me,' he said. 'I want to thank my mates because they don't know how much I love them for what they did for me all season. They gave everything for me.' 德罗巴说："这个奖项对我意义重大，我要感谢我的队友，因为他们不知道我有多麽的爱他 们，他们整个赛季都在为我付出一切，他们给予了我一切。" Drogba had collected his trophy from another to have led the attack for Chelsea - Gianluca Vialli who received a tremendous reception. 另外一位曾经担任切尔西的锋线尖刀--维亚利给德罗巴颁发了这一奖项。 Another appropriate ex-Blue to hand over an award, and the very first Player of the Year for his goalkeeping excellence back in 1967, was Peter Bonetti. 另外一位前切尔西球员也颁发了一个奖项，他就是凭藉出色的守门技术在1967年荣获首个 切尔西最佳球员的彼得.波内蒂。 He HeHe presented a new award for Outstanding Achievement which went to Petr Cech in recognition of his remarkable comeback from serious injury. 他把本年的"最杰出贡献奖"颁给了切赫，切赫在本赛季经历一次严重受伤之後，复出之後 的状态给人留下了深刻印象。 'Everyone was looking out for me, everyone helped me when I was in a difficult situation and everyone involved in Chelsea Football Club - supporters, medical department, players - take huge credit for my achievement,' Cech said. 切赫说："当我身处困境的时候，每个人都关心着我，每个人都帮助着我，所有切尔西的 人员--球迷、医疗人员、球员--对於我的成就都给予很大的信任。" 'They gave me the energy and the motivation to come back as soon as I could.' "他们给了我能量和动力，使能尽快的重返赛场。" The other honour of the night was the Young Talent award for the Academy player who has impressed the most, chosen by director of youth development Frank Arnesen, Academy manager Neil Bath and reserve team coach Brendan Rodgers. 典礼上还有一个奖项就是"天才青年球员奖"，这个奖项颁给青年队中表现最出色的球员， 球员是由青训部门主管阿南森、青年队主教练尼尔.巴斯以及预备队主教练罗杰斯共同评 选的。 It went to striker Ben Sahar who at the age of 17 became Chelsea's youngest ever international appearance maker and goalscorer. 该奖项最终由年仅17岁的本.萨哈尔获得，他成为切尔西历史上最年轻的入选国家队的前 锋。 The full list of Chelsea Player of the Year winners is: 1967 Peter Bonetti 1968 Charlie Cooke 1969 David Webb 1970 John Hollins 1971 John Hollins 1972 David Webb 1973 Peter Osgood 1974 Gary Locke 1975 Charlie Cooke 1976 Ray Wilkins 1977 Ray Wilkins 1978 Micky Droy 1979 Tommy Langley 1980 Clive Walker 1981 Petar Borota 1982 Mike Fillery 1983 Joey Jones 1984 Pat Nevin 1985 David Speedie 1986 Eddie Niedzwiecki 1987 Pat Nevin 1988 Tony Dorigo 1989 Graham Roberts 1990 Ken Monkou 1991 Andy Townsend 1992 Paul Elliott 1993 Frank Sinclair 1994 Steve Clarke 1995 Erland Johnsen 1996 Ruud Gullit 1997 Mark Hughes 1998 Dennis Wise 1999 Gianfranco Zola 2000 Dennis Wise 2001 John Terry 2002 Carlo Cudicini 2003 Gianfranco Zola 2004 Frank Lampard 2005 Frank Lampard 2006 John Terry 2007 Michael Essien --
