The fans should prepare a chant for the following game with ManUre, based on this game.

Don't even know what to say because the game will always feel incomplete. MOTM? Probably Mata once again as his brilliance was involved in two goals but almost everyone played well after the first 30. Luiz was the only poor overall performer IMO-had one of his playstation games,

On the ManU forum there is a thread ' We have just robbed Chelsea'. One of them writes the following:

"The pretty much had us in the bag.Ref saved the day for us."

That's it: have fear! Our new team is going to run over you. We will not forget !

Please take a screenshot if you have access...

Some united fan trying to argue it wasn't offside... Like Seriously

Sick of referees being bought by ferguson. this has gone on for too long now. It happened all through the 90s and is still going on.

Ferguson criticizes referees that give decisions against his club. Most likely, these decisions happen in games Manchester United lose. The FA reacts to the criticism by not assigning said referees in future Manchester United games. Thus, the only referees assigned to United games are ones that Ferguson approves of

Last season, Manchester City romped to a 6-1 win at Old Trafford, inflicting on their rivals their biggest embarrassment under Ferguson. The referee on that day was Mark Clattenburg. He sent Johnny Evans off in the second half for a clear professional foul.

There have been 39 Man United league games since that day. The number of times times Clattenburg has refereed them? Zero. Not a single one -until today. he did today obviously under strict instructions. The referees that have given decisions Ferguson deem to be incorrect against United, no longer referee their games -see Alan Wiley.

Factor in the fact that Manchester Uniteds CEO is ON THE BOARD OF the English FA, Alex Ferguson is a knight of the realm with political connections that go a lot deeper than football (just read Allistair Campbell’s diaries )

Not a peep out of Murdochs Sky empire because of the connections

I honestly didn't know that Clattenburg hadn't refereed a Man Utd game since sending off Johhny Evans. Of course we all know about Martin Atkinson being on the Ferguson black list too. You've hit the nail on the head, he has such influence on officials. Give a decision against his team and you are black listed from Man Utd games so, like with Clattenburg today, when you get the chance of redemption in Ferguson's eyes you grab it with both hands.

[Naked Mole Rat 437]

you cant be serious ,,,,he will share ALL manure games with howard

Not sure Fergie would trust Clattenburg, yet. He made a huge mistake last season and has a lot to catch up with Webb, who has been very consistent for United, but I can see where you're coming from. Clattenburg definitely seems to have the right tools to make a good backup.

i just wish some1 had said "its a disgrace, its a fucking DISGRACE".... i am bloody literally seething.

[Billy. 2,742]

What a joke that really was, yer we started off shit but when we got back into i just knew everything would go there way i can kinda take the Brana red card but the Torres ine was a fucking joke, even if we win on Wednesday it dont matter we need to win this game.

Also we now got Brana suspended for 3 games and Torres for one all we need right now

Something needs to be done about the FA now its a joke im sick of Refs getting away with fucking up games over and over again

only positives from today:

We showed fight to get it back to 2-2

we didnt roll over and die when we went down to 9 men

and we are still top of the league.

[nachikethas 1,149]

fuck im singing chelsea name as loud as possible....proud of a blue and blue till i die,,,, ,no even after dead

[Kojo 4,676]

Big respect to our team though, i thought they would crumble, they came back and put up a fight.

[Nando 106]

Even with 10 men we would have won. Embarrassing refereeing today. Embarrassing not only for United but for the EPL at all. I'm pissed to say this but Torres did dive or he's just a terrible terrible actor. You can go down every time someone touches you. It's time to bench him now for the best of the club. Nevermind, top of the league, we'll beat the crap out of them in 3 days!

[DYC. 7,542]

We were great once we finally woke up. Outplayed them even. I'm going to focus on that. Exciting times on the way for sure.

[TheCount 146]

What a Joke fucking cheat club,

Always been the same year in year out, when will the match fixing stop........ and all their vermin fans celebrating cheating and cheater, scumbags.

We were going to hammer them! as i always said if we play wide we'll beat anyone and we did that today and we scared UTD so much.

2 sending offs 1 offside goal last year it was 2 penos, before that 2 offside goals......when will it end?

More of the ball with 9 men our lads should be proud!

KEEP THE BLUE FLAG FLYING HIGH!

Gary Neville is becoming more and more popular

Gary Neville criticises the officials after Manchester United beat Chelsea

Neville told Sky Sports' Super Sunday: "We have seen different types of dives today. Even if Torres doesn't get clipped I think he is entitled to go down.

"He had Johnny Evans, 6ft 1in, coming towards him with an aggressive tackle, I think Torres may be thinking he has to get his leg out of the way and go down because Evans is going to do him.

"Referees are getting themselves in a mess on this because everyone is talking about diving. There are different types of diving.

"He may be able to stay on his feet there but you can't say that was a yellow card. That is not a yellow card."

Asked if the decision inadvertently made up for failing to send off Torres in the first half, Neville responded: "Two wrongs don't make a right. I think that the referee got the first one wrong and he got the second one wrong.

"He got both wrong and it is not good for the referee either way. The first one could have been a red card and the second one was not a yellow.
