38th minute, and the Michael Jackson lookalike Nani produces a pearler. 2-0, but surprisingly chelsea looking the better side. De Gea keeping utd in this. Looking far better than previous games

Yeh was 1 hell of a weird game
Coulda finished 5 all
United were just more clinical in the 1st half
Nanis goal was a spanker, all class even left fergie speechless on the bench

as for torres poor fkn cunt, he looked sharp after his goal

de gea and jones look the good

and chelsea fans gotta love rooneys impersonation of terry moscow 08 ;)

Fantastic game with both sides looking like scoring every time they attacked, could've been 5-5 at half time with both defences looking very dodgy.

Anderson had his worst game of the season and Jones looked like he was just having a knockabout with his mates at times. He was brilliant one minute then woeful the next, he's only 19 though and he's gonna be some player. Nani was our best player and his dribbling is a joy to watch at times.

Felt a bit for Torres as I thought he had a brilliant game and looked back to his old self at times, he'll cause defences problems this season playing like that. That miss was unbelievable though :oops:

same with the Ramires miss tbh, one of the most unjust 3-0 score lines at the half, but you gotta take your chances simple as that

Chelsea's man of the match against Man U at home?

Liverpool won the award for losing to the bottom team last night!

It was offside, but doesn't matter, referees always make mistakes, last time Luiz should've seen red, and our penalty was soft at best. Same thing happened for Man U today, what can you do. Personally i think it was a good attacking game from both sides.

looking at the picture no daylight between attacker and defender so was level. I texted my chelsea supporter mate he was furious i was like why u furious you are the better side atm looked dangerous in attack just couldnt finish, any other day that could have been 4 all.
would have been good for a nuatera supporter.

It is not an offence in itself to be in an offside position.

A player is in an offside position if:

he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second-last opponent

A player is not in an offside position if:

he is in his own half of the field of play or
he is level with the second-last opponent or
he is level with the last two opponents

A player in an offside position is only penalised if, at the moment the ball touches or is played by one of his team, he is, in the opinion of the referee, involved in active play by:

interfering with play or
interfering with an opponent or
gaining an advantage by being in that position


He was offside

Exactly. He might have been but all in all i actually think it was a great game. I'm sure we'll get a call in our favour next time.

Man U deserve there spot in the EPL at the moment, it's going to be a great year for the top three (Man city, Chelsea, Man U). All three sides are playing alot more attacking than last season and i really think this mornings game showed that.

Unfortunately Torres and Ramires missed easy chances, but Rooney did a great JT impersination as well, and Berba missed what he should have scored too. Great game to watch ( even though i was upset with the result).

If I could be bothered, I'd find one for Chelsea attempting to win the Champions League. But I've got better things to do.

An interesting stat about Nani. In his first 100 league games for United he's scored 19 goals, the same as Ronaldo. But he has 33 assists compared to 12 for his Portugese teammate.

He also gave Ashley Cole a bit of a run around yesterday, something Ronaldo never did as far as I can remember.

It's true. Nani has become excellent for united.
