We dominated them physically. That is un-man utd-like. They have always dominated us physically for the past 7years.

[quote author=Mr_TA]Horrid boring match. Lots of poor individual performances. We still lack that physical presence in midfield but its the creativity we lacked most. Our final ball was so bad. Can't believe Kagawa isn't getting a chance to play. I bet money he leaves this close season. We're still playing Giggs in big matches. Smh.

We did have the better chances and the ref didn't help by not giving us an obvious pen but that's life I guess. On to the next one.

Also if Chelsea don't want Mata can we have him? I can't believe he can't get into the starting 11. That's ridiculous.[/quote]I hope we won't lose kagawa the way we lost pogba. Can't see why Giggs will be playing and Kagawa will be watching HDTV

chrisley024: Rooney was poor this half. We need CM. Cleverly plays it too safe though he has been good.

Rooney has worked his a55 off. A play safe cleverly is better than a calamitous one.

Chelsea has been poor tactically.

dademola: Mou's game plan is working perfectly. He'd want to go for d jugular in d 2nd half. Mata toress tinz. I think we need smeone to open up this game in d 2nd half....

His tactics dint work taaaaaaa!!!!

coogar: phil jones is such a hopeless right back - we really miss rafael in this game. his crossing of the ball is missed. nothing is happening on that right flank.

Jones is a soap

SailorXY: --------de Gea--------
Jones--Evans/Smalling--Vidic--Evra
---- ---Carrick------Cleverley------
Valencia-----Kagawa/Anderson----Welbeck
-----------*picks himself*----------

----------------------------------
I don't expect Ryan Giggs to be part of a first 11 against tough opposition, same goes for Vidic/Ferdinand partnership altho Moyes will feel experience does it. Wayne Rooney will definitely be better coming off the bench with 25-30mins left cuz of the new attacking dimension it will bring. I'll also like to see Zaha for maybe the last 15mins against Cashley
My prediction
Man Utd 3 Chelsea 1

I will go with your line up. will prefer Evans ahead of Smalling, and a fit Anderson ahead of Kagawa.

Sincerely i am not too comfortable with the game. With the array of midfield arsenal chelsea has in the kitty, I am being tempted to give the game to them. Moyes tactical ability to play CL will be put to test today.

Citie were just too lazy while defending. maybe is because kompany is not around. i pray he does not come back before we play them. welcome to EPL, Pellegrini. This aint La Liga where teams lie down to die.

coogar: who has been successful for chelsea in the last 10 years as a striker?

shevchenko nah
