Won't bore you with a long article, we played admirably, never gave up, Torres was superb.
United aren't as good as they are made out to be.
Bring them on at the bridge, it will be a different story; mark my words
Man Utd

Chelsea were getting torn apart at times - we missed a pen, should have had another pen, hit the crossbar, had a shot cleared off the line.
Whereas all Chelsea had was a shocking Torres miss, other than that it was all pretty comfortable for United really.
United definitely deserved the win.

Shame United were missing Welbeck, Ferdinand, Vidic, Rafael and Cleverley

A comfortable result for United? Ridiculous...
Two offside goals, a penalty you should never have had; which was a great bit of comedy though, seeing the "best player in the world" fall on his backside.
Chelsea had so many great chances, and had they put away even a fraction of them they'd be taking back three points back to SB.
A defeat, but the performance make it feel like a draw, which if there were decent linesman today it would have been.

Just said this elsewhere, but here we go:
United had 1 penalty disallowed, missed another penalty, hit the woodwork twice, missed an open net and missed two other sitters.
Game could have been a cricket score but United were good value for the win

Blazing shots over count for nothing otherwise you may as well say yuou could have scored from a corner. Ramires shot was saved, so it was a good save.
United were overrunning you, yes you had a couple of chances, but you only really breached united a couple of times. United were breaching the Chelsea defence almost at will.
You are all clinging to the thought that the offside goals meant you were hard done by, but in reality you have to admit the best team won.

Nothing to do with who the best team was, although I think chelsea have the better players, man u just have the best manager.

Clear as day, to a United supporter perhaps. As clear as your first two goals were on-side too right?
Look at it again, his foot clearly connected with the ball first, but hey, what do you expect it's OT.
