He chose Essien. When the ball came across, none of the defenders picked up Ballack, which one of them should have done. If you look at it, you can see Rio looking at Ballack coming in and doing nothing about it. Rio marked nobody and was caught in no mans land.
Why should Fletcher have to mark 2 and some defenders pick up nobody
No way was that Fletcher´s fault. Absolute bollox.
