Closed Man United 0-0 Chelsea

[Stingray 9,441]

Good to see that you're using the fact that other players played badly to defend KDB though. Absolute fanboy

Wut? I just thought your argument wasn't valid that's all. Hell Torres had two votes ... So i did not do any such thing. Why the attitude?

Edit: and if I am such a fanboy, why isn't my vote there then? Tell me that while you are at it. Fucking hell.

We could have, would have..if... just does not sit with me. It´s hypothetical assumptions, only. If Chelsea had attacked & scored one or two, what would you have posted here, then ?

united vs chelsea 3-1

chelsea vs united 3-3

chelsea vs united 2-3

chelsea vs united (coc) 5-4

united vs chelsea (fa cup) 2-2

the no. of goals we had conceded against united in the past 2 years left little to the imagination as to how our defenders would have dealt with their counter. we would have out-scored them, who knows, but jose dint want to take that risk. and as i said before, it was the right decision.

Hazard really pissed me off in this game. He's was the only dribbler in the whole side and the onus is on him to take the ball on and to commit their players ! He didn't do that at all and I think its down to him choosing not to. We can't go a whole season with a team full of static playmakers that don't want to run at players unless they arrived from the championship last month.

Well, they seemed lost, not knowing what to do.

Well, you are happy with 0:0. I prefer 2-3 goals instead. Of course in manure´s net.

Even on corners, set-pieces, I prefered what Benitez was doing.

With the spacing, combination of runs to disturb the opponents.

Chelsea 0 - 0 Man City

Chelsea 0 - 0 Fulham

West Ham 3 - 1 Chelsea

That was Benitez's first three games as Chelsea manager, who would of thought he'll get us top four? not me. Rafa had more than three games to get his ideas across, and so will Mourinho... be patient for gods sack and try not to judge him after three fucking games.

And lets not forget we got a point at old trafford, looking at some of these responses you would of thought we got thrashed...

Mou had 5, could do what ever he wanted in pre season.

That was Benitez's first three games as Chelsea manager, who thought he would get us into top four after the west ham match? not me. Rafa had time to get his ideas across... it's only been three games FFS.

He had no pre-season, the squad very thin, and players that were tired and playing every three days.

And It's not like we don't know how Mourinho's team usually play.

In the pre-season and first three matches, it had all the general trademarks of Mourinho.

Even his Real Madrid team against Manchester were boring, unimaginative while Real was a much better team and should have easily dispatched them.

So, the Schurrle experiment didn't work. That said, I was really impressed with his work-rate and dedication. He was more influential when he moved wide and looked likely to make something happen.

Man of the Match for me was Ash. He's had a few dodgy games against United but was excellent today. Even his only mistimed challenge was well timed, coming as it did in the first ten minutes. Any later and he would have gone in the book (as De Bruyne and Torres did, both ridiculously harshly). Nods to Brana and the rest of the defensive unit too.

Oscar the most busy in midfield with Lampard steady. Ramires desperately poor first half, quietly efficient in the second. Hazard was worrying quiet, with United putting two men on him and forcing him to run down blind alleys for most of the game.

There were times when our passing was a little aimless, like we weren't looking beyond the next pass, but that is understandable given the new players and general inexperience on show.

A point away from home against another title challenger. Have to be quietly pleased with that

Do you also prefer to finish 3rd, 20 points behind united?

How about losing 4-1 to A.Madrid, 3-0 to Juventus or 3-1 to West Ham?

[ZOS 580]

ramires was shit!!! lampard was out of sort!! why oh why aren't we looking for a proper DM and give MVG a chance?

[nachikethas 1,154]

i think he is taking things slowly. know he had a long way to go and dont want things to get messy. he wont be playing like this for our home match.

Pre season is mainly about fitness.

It literally sums of the vast majority of Chelsea fans now adays and their pathetic attitude. This has been easily one of or the hardest games of the season, and we got out of there with a point. And people are complaining?

Our players were bought for hefty prices due to their POTENTIAL. They still need to develop. No way are they ready to just full on attack United at Old Trafford and expecting a result. Especially when they are the reigning champions

Second off, thank GOD Mourinho actually knows the quality that Michael Carrick has (unlike the lot of you) and packed the midfield to diminish any space he would find to pick out RVP.

Top of the league, Moyes has still yet to win at Old Trafford. Stop fucking complaining.

Exactly.

The few good moments United had came via Carrick.
