Maybe Jose feels that Mata is not that big a loss so trading him to a rival is not that big a deal. Or he feels Moyes is clueless so United is not a threat. I honestly don't get trading him to United. Maybe it's a combo of Mata not being his type of player and Moyes not being very good. Can't imagine he'd trade him to United if Fergie was still there.

I don't know if it's technically beautiful football but this second half is much better than the ugly first half.

I don't get it tbh why Frank is picked almost game in game out regardless of performance. I know he's one of Jose's "untouchables" but some of his performances have been unwatchable. I'm sure Jose has his reasons but I'm just not smart enough to figure it out.

Injured. Out two to three weeks.

As a friend and I were discussing this is an injury he suffered at Liverpool a few times. Hope it's not a precursor to those Liverpool injury days.

Damn....... Jose dropped the hammer on some players. Maybe the wakeup call everybody needs.

Miss tomorrow and West Brom. The international break is coming at the right time for him. Still waiting for scan to see how bad the injury is.

All the Spaniards going out to celebrate their goal scoring.

@_PaulHayward Bendtner looks as if he won a competition to play for Arsenal.

From the Guardian: 39 min: It's weird that Arsenal aren't very good with Nicklas Bendnter up front. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Happy for the performance for 3 reasons: 1. Good for Chelsea 2. Good for Fernando 3. Probably pissed off Carragher

Don't think Mr. Potato Head was going to call him up anyway.

@MiguelDelaney Mourinho on Vertonghen: "He’s a special guy because three days ago he left the Aston Villa striker naked... he should not play."

If it was any other year maybe but with the WC coming up and playing time hard enough to find with the Spanish squad..... Mata needs to be playing or he won't get called up by VDB. Another team will gladly find a place for him on the pitch on a regular basis.

That was quick. When my daughter had hers (twice) the doc wanted to wait for the swelling to go down (2-4 weeks). Hope he has a strong recovery.

I missed most of the second half. What is the score and goalscorers?

Are you screwed on the squad if you're Spanish? Torres is a whole other issue but Mata can't even find the bench? I'm missing the obvious here I guess.

I get it Jose is the savior but WTH is the deal with Mata? Not even on the bench?

How many subs can you have in these matches?

Why as the worldwide leader in sports does ESPN torture US viewers with Twellman?

What the F is going on in the back?

Good thing Jelavic is awful today or that should be 2 goals for him.

They all look tired. Now hopefully the announcer will STFU.

Unfortunately yes. FSC in the US. English guys. Not pro-Everton, more like anti-Chelsea.
