If it wasn't for that appalling assistant referee we would've win.
what about the appalling actual referee?
The ref had a decent game I thought. All 3 pens were correct.
You try reffing that game mate......it was played at 200 miles an hour and he doesn't get to see replays in slow motion.
Great match for our reserves. Much needed game time.
embarrasing night for chelsea tbh.
You should of finished the game with nine men.

Chelsea had 5 guys who did not play on Sunday and were all over you.
We should have had 3 pen's and you took your chances well,but did little else,with little creative play or passing.
Kids are no excuse either.If you want to win against 11 men and a decent ref,try harder and pick better teams.
Both teams really poor tonight...nani goal was the pick of the night ..every other goal was questionable...Chelsea were dominant when there first teamers came on. At the end of the day our new defenders cost us the game. Harsh but true.
why is nani so passe in a match..it beggers belief the amount of times you know he is on his way to losing the ball. He should really get the ball in earlier.
All in all the blues were gifted the game.
easily the better team. but for poor officiating we would have creamed united today with our fringe players and had 3 points on sunday. future looks good for us, very excited.

Chelsea made 6 changes but then brought on Ramires, Oscar and Hazard.
We made 10 changes and brought on the likes of Powell, Tunicliffe and Macheda.
5-4
8 goals at home in 2 matches...bright future indeed
5-4
? I suppose it is funny.
It's so nice watching United fans suck lemons over a cup they don't care for apparently.
The score tonight would have been the score on sunday had United not had a very generous ref and linesman.
The first 11 vs reserves thing is a pathetic and weak excuse, and not true.
Are all chelsea fans deluded plastics?

Prove me wrong.
Maybe we just have a better overall squad then
There are prat Chelsea fans on here! No you wouldn't have won on Sunday as you were beaten by a better side! All your belly aching but can't handle that Torres should have been off in the 1st half! Basically you lost! As for tonight, it was great stuff by both teams but Chelsea's subs were too good and won them the game. But don't delude yourselves that you think you would have won on Sunday as its quite pathetic!
Such a great squad you can't make changes for the COCup? How does that work?
Maybe we just have a better overall squad then
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
How exactly have you reached that conclusion?
If anything it suggests the exact opposite. You had to call on Ramires, Oscar and Hazard to beat our reserves. As well as starting with Mikel, Mata, Cech, Luiz and Cahill.
Your squad looks weak to me, even if your first 11 looks exciting.
Who says you have to make changes? Hazard, Mata and Oscar were all over your first team on sunday aswell as tonight... nothing has changed.
stret
Pick better then SAF,and do not use this excuse every year.
Respect the competition you are in,or why bother?
You beat 9 man Chelsea with a dodgy goal on Sunday,so are you flying high at the top of the EPL?
I felt in normal time we were unlucky not to have won. Hernandez really should have wrapped the game up and I think we'd have held on if Anderson stayed on as he ran the midfield and allowed us to break and keep possession.
But obviously once it went to extra time Chelsea deserved their win and could have won by more if Sturridge wasn't cráp.
Good performance considering we had so many fringe players playing and Chelsea had most of their first 11 playing.
We didn't HAVE to call on anyone. We were all over you anyway. It wasn't helped by our defence being shocking!
For 30 minutes they were, they did nothing in the first 30.

Mightly proud of our lads tonight.
