Here's my (belated) post match rant. Not a bad result by any means but we shouldn't repeat last year's failure to capitalize when the Mancs fail.I would have taken a point before the game but Champions should always be disappointed with anything less than 3 points.Anelka was by far our worst player,the million $ question is(and has been for about a year not) whether he can still play as a proper striker,he did his job fine against Zilina but he was just awful yesterday.Ivanovic was my MotM with Petr Cech being 2nd.In my opinion Ivanovic hasn't been really good as an RB this season and yesterday his performance as a CB was excellent.Petr saved our skins in the first few minutes.I was really un-impressed with CA's substitutions.He has a tendency to get some specific players subbed even if there are others who should come off the pitch.Ramires and Ferreira were having good games while Essien was very poor yet for some reason Ramires was taken off.I reckon we could have used Borini as we clearly lacked a front-man and I didn't see the point of Josh coming on or Gael coming off.Kakuta had a mediocre game but he was not the only one,only Ivanovic,Malouda and Cech stood off in the first half.Josh had a good game,he looks more like a trustworthy squad member by the day.His yellow card was the most ridiculous card I've seen in the past few years.Bosingwa looked sharp,with all due respect to both Ivanovic and Ferreira our right flank hasn't been that active for some time now.Glad to have him back.Now Ivanovic may actually get some rest.Zhirkov was always going to be great on the wing but I'm disappointed with the way we have treated him.He was making runs all the time only to be ignored by either Ash or Anelka.He doesn't look like member of the "team" yet,Cole is so good playing with Malouda that Zhirkov is often left out of our attacks.
