Cech-7.0- Good game made a few good saves cant be blamed for the goals
Ivanovic-8.0- Big man, nobody could get past him very unfortunate for the penalty
Luiz-7.0-played well with a deflected goal and an amazing pass to malouda but was slightly at fault for the third united goal
cahill- 5.0- Started well, quite a few crucial blocks but ruined everything when he lost hernandez :-'(
bosingwa-5.5-Not bad but not good either
Essien-5.5- Defended well but was outpaced time after time and kept wasting possesion by shooting from 40 yards out
Malouda-4.0-Rubbish Lost the ball 90% of the time he had it
Meireles-5.5- Made a very important last ditch block that would have resulted in a 1 on 1 had he not stopped the ball. Wasted too much possesion
Torres-6.0-Lovely assist, failed to shoot a first timer, good all round play -seems to sum up his career at chelsea.
Mata-8.5- Must be man of the match, brilliant goal and hardly wasted a ball, would have scored the winner were it not for a brilliant de gea save
Sturridge-5.5- Created the first goal but was very very selfish

why so harsh on Bosingwa

Malouda was absolutely shocking all game
doesn't deserve more than 3
at most

I think torres' open goal miss against Man U haunts him and he tries to get into the easiest positions possible before shooting to be sure of himself

You lot are far too generous with your ratings.
3-0 nil to chelsea after 50mins was the most flattering scoreline in PL history.
Mata was absolute pure CLASS for you I totally agree but the rest were mediocre for me.
We had a much better grip of the game in midfield and deserved at least a point from that match.

3-0 was flattering but Chelsea is not usually a team to throw away that kind of lead so we shot ourselves in foot here.
Other than Brana, Luiz and Essien I think rest were ok. Mata scored one and created one but on other few occasions he made poor decisions.

Agreed Mata was just poor first half and ok second
