I don't even know why people are saying Benayoun was bad, he hardly had anything to fucking do the short time he was on!

Okay, despite the scoreline looking bad I think to say we were "battered" is very harsh. We were always in the game, especially when we made it 2-1, it's unfortunate Berba scored in the last minute because I felt we had another goal within us. It's not the worse performance we've put in, the goalkeeper situation came into it again, Hilario had a better game but I still think we need a better 2^nd keeper.

Everyone sitting there around me was very disappointed with Kalou. We saw him cause United trouble but that was it, he didn't make many chances for himself at all and for him to score was quite lucky (we all felt). Though we are glad he did

We also thought Carlo took a positive risk taking off Anelka and bringing on Sturridge, it shows Carlo is serious about promoting the youth.

On the bright side Ferreira had a solid game,the kind of performances we want from him and what he was known for.

Good report Alex but wouldnt say we were 'battered'. Could quite easily have been 3-2 or 4-2 to us, the 3-1 flattered them. If there were weak points it was the defence which with Alex Cech and Boswinga due back any time soon should allay any fragility.

West Brom will feel the force of the real Chelsea after this fundraising pre season friendly.....

PS highlight was the lone Chels fan gesturing to the upper tier of celebrating yernited for ten minutes
