Just got back from the match, GUTTED!
where do we start UTD were fortunate to leave with a point, no doubt about it.
Firstly the second penalty shout was never on , Cahill was blocking the ball.
Overall today another mixed bag from the blues but considering we were missing Terry, Lampard & Cole we did well.
Cahill had a decent debut, Torres put in another mixed display but did create that superb assist for mata, essien again is breath of fresh air who in fact started the move for the first goal.
Mata, luiz, cech, cahill,ivanovich,essein, all had very good games,
Torres, sturridge, mieriiles were all ok today,
Boswinga, & malouda were the weak links.
AVB, came very close to covering himself on glory , but his subsitutions do not inspire.
Still before the match the point would have been egarly taken ,so lets not get to sucked into the medias glowing view of utds heroic fight back, it was nothing of the kind.
match day live appraisal..

Well said. Couldn't get today as car broke down so gutted but the sycophantic Sky commentary regarding Man Utd was nauseating. They couldn't get further up their ..... s if they tried.

Boswinga was not great today, his end product is useless, he gets the ball and runs himself into the opposition.
Time after time.

==========================================
And in the first half when cahill chopped down welbeck, i suppose that was "never on".
