And the first times you played those 3 you needed some fortune from the referee in 2 of them to swing the game in your favour before it slipped away

As usual the non United fans forget the decisions that went against them. Ashley Young's good goal being ruled out against City in the 3-2 win. Torres very lucky to stay on the park in the first half for kicking Cleverley in the head due to a dangerous high challenge. That challenge was worse than the one Nani got sent off for against RM. Yeah Hernandez was offside when he scored the winner but every team get goals that stand that were offside. Chelsea have had plenty over the years and have definitely benefitted from questionable decisions against United on numerous occasions in recent seasons so stop whingeing.

Every teams get luck. You need more than a bit of luck to take 9 points from 9 from Anfield, The Bridge and The Etihad. You need a very good team to do it as well. Which is what United are. It's why they are champions.

He was trying to control the ball don't act like Torres was charging at him in with a chainsaw

"Yeah Hernandez was offside when he scored the winner but every team get goals that stand that were offside. "

I've never seen a team score though when they're running out of the oppositions net after the pass was played though

Drogba was much more clearly offside at OT a couple of seasons ago than Hernandez was last season. That is undeniable. There were no players in the officials line of sight and Drogba wasn't running back from an initial offside position before the ball was struck.

Players shouldn't try to control the ball with their feet when it's head high. It's dangerous and can easily lead to a bad injury for your opponent and a straight red card. Ask Luis Nani. He'll vouch for how easy it is to receive a straight red card for challenges with your feet that are near head height. Torres' challenge was far higher than Nani's.

Yes it was

Hernandez was in the goal net when the pass was played in, I fail to see how you can be more offside than that.

He was in amongst a group of players it was hardly clearly offside to the naked eye at the time. It was only when the replays were shown that people realised. Drogba was much more clearly offside at OT. How anyone can even argue against that is laughable.
