Closed Chelsea v Man United

[Korea 734]

Chocking result after such a abysmal performance.

But football is really simple sometimes guys, United created chances but could not score. Best teams usually win the games.

Strange strategies by Mourinho. Te teams is more concerned in defending than anything else. Liverpool game the team was putting they under pressure and they barely could past their defense. Today United is having the ball in their foot, we are lucky that the quality is not there.

Worst player on the pitch has to be Ivanovic. Disaster at best. Attacking players are not having a good game, but Hazard is still decent. Etoo for his goals and Ramires are the best on the pitch. Luiz is doing really good but Im not sure if Mourinho should play him in the 2nd due to his yellow card.

***Terry+Cahill "solid partnership that gives the team stability" is looking really bad today. We are lucky that Elbeck is not RVB.

Dont know what game you are watching..

Luiz is anything, but good.

Roman is present, just like Becks

[Beepu 1,714]

the brazilians and their rash challenges...

I would bring in Matic for Luiz... Luiz is invisible against United causing Mourinho to tell Oscar to help them...

Also, what is the own goal rule for the BPL exactly? How is Eto first goal not an own goal?

Its not an own goal, its a deflection. As long as its going to 1 direction its not own goal. Own goal is like if the keeper parries the ball and it hit the back of the defender before it bounces on goal. Dont know if that makes sense.......

Phil Neviile: "Boss, we're playing against Chelsea. Their central defenders are John Terry and Gary Cahill. What's the plan?"

Moyes: "Play Young and Valencia, cross the ball to Welbeck and Janzuaj"

Phil: "But.."

Moyes: "Cross!"

Phil: "But.."

Moyes: "Crooooooooooooooooooooos!!!!"

Luiz proving why he isn't a DM today IMO.

Bring on Matic or Mikel.

As long as the shot is on target before the deflection it's not an owngoal.

Mourinho should stop injecting fear of United to our team. same happened in the first game and now too. they make us look like a freaking mid-table team without their best players. embarrasing type of performance and how the hell is Ivanovic playing?

Really angry about this performance. it seems like you only have to press well against us and we look like a relegation team. props to united, who are showing real character today.

Luiz is awful today (as most of the team tough). shocking positioning and United are controlling the mid of the pitch with ease (and thats while playing jones and carrick there ......)

Extremely lucky to be leading never mind up 2-0 but United have no real strikers so it's not a huge surprise, their finishing has been awful.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

That clash Jones-Luiz with heads looked painful...surprised Luiz wasnt injured...

Lucky to lead 2:0, we are awful in keeping possesion, no one passes to Hazard when he is clearly our most dangerous dribbler. Also what is with Oscar and Willian when they get the ball? Are they trying to do Ramires?

[Mustafa 885]

We generally have been better in the second half this season... Hope thats the case today !

WE WANT 6 !!

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Embarrassing pro Man United analysis. Didn't bother showing Chelsea's chances (Oscar's bicycle kick etc)

EDIT: On Sky Sports

A few radio stations just keep banging on about United have Rooney and RVP out. I heard this a minute ago " Chelsea lead 2-0 at halftime, Manchester United have had 55% possession "

Didn't know possession won games....Desperate to give United any sort of victory

[Beepu 1,714]

I love Luiz and I can see that he's trying very hard. But god, he's actually insane. Like..... actually insane. Plays like drunken sailor.

Drunken sailor? hahaha I've never heard of that one before! But he is insane, thats why we love him!

Wait....What?

[xnaed 17]

i expect Moyes to throw in Hernandez and us getting another goal in counter attack; Hazard maybe

[Cech's helmet 220]

Luiz needs to come off. he really needs to be more disciplined.

Cahill over Luiz for me in CB, no doubt.

I dont know...

I remember a few games where the defender touched the ball even though it was on target and deflected it and got counted as own goals...

"As a collective - owner, manager, players and fans I'd say Chelsea are the biggest wankers of the top teams."

[Toli 977]

Wait....What?

what you read there. nothing hard to understand this? embarassing performance so far, you dont agree? they are dominating us on our own pitch and only due to luck we are leading by 2 goals (especially the 1st one)
