    Won't get a better chance to beat Chelsea than this, they are there to be got at. Could all change second half though.

    Who is Chelsea's current penalty taker at the moment?

    I'd imagine Hazard would take it if there was one.

    Might be a bet for chelsea fans

    I just hope united can bang one in

    He's actually done quite well today, hold up play has been very good but still not quick enough in doing something with it.

    I very much agree, but I feel we should of been one up by now

    We're probably going to make 45 year old Drogba look like a superstar today.

    Feck my life.

    He scored from a corner. Hardly remarkable

    These things happen in cycles. Liverpool had their day and Manchester United had theirs. Other teams come along. They'll start winning again in a few years.

    Games not over yet I know, but i think we've played well. Lot of positives to take from the game regardless of how it finishes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    I hope after today larry shuts up about Fellaini being the worst ever player


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,690 ✭✭✭ElChe32


    I'm sorry lads I don't see whats the big deal around Januzaj, I want to be proved wrong, but all I saw was 2 decent passes and the rest of the game slowing the play down every time he got the ball. Anonymous in the 2nd half..

    Was expecting the loss, so not really that upset by it. Frustrating that it came from a setpiece but was expecting worse.

    RVP, I felt, was anonymous. DiMaria had a bad game.

    Fel was really good, I felt, putting in a shift all over the place. Januzaj and Shaw were quite good. Not a great performance but not the worst by a significant margin. Would be more confident with Falcao in the team though.



    ----

    Had this typed up on the 93rd minute. Will eat my words. Fel was our MOTM though. Awesome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,209 ✭✭✭KH25


    Fellaini was excellent today. I gave him a lot of criticism last year but he has proven me wrong today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,560 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    All the bitching and moaning, there is only one RVP, OUR SAVIOUR.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Deserved that lads. F*cking delighted.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,222 ✭✭✭✭Will I Amnt


    Fellaini is the man again today. Best player in a United shirt by a distance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Zico


    Transfer window coming up.

    Will Ed Woodward buy the players we've needed for the last two years?

    Paddy Power couldn't **** on OT enough to make that happen.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,889 ✭✭✭✭The Moldy Gowl


    Fellaini and rvp, the 2 scapegoats. Heros.

    Great point. Great performance

    Only knew RVP had scored because my brother started to scream like a ghost in a strip club.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,366 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    What a moment that was. Ooooooo Robin Vaaaaaaaaaan Persie.

    Fellaini put in a serious shift today again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Delighted for Fellaini.

    Took some serious flack last season whilst mainly injured as well as trying to settle in.

    Great performances the last 2 games :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    As I said I was one of the more positive about our chances during the week, but with how it panned out I am happy enough with the draw, more then manner of it. Keeping going right to the end and pulling it back should be a huge boost and a return to the never say die attitude, hopefully.

    Good performance overall, Chelsea the better in the second half, but we edged the first so a draw is a fair enough result tbh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,002 ✭✭✭beno619


    Great first half,poor second half. Fellaini and Adnan were great, RVP was marginally better.

    Great result.

    Fellaini was utterly fantastic today.

    He was given a job and stuck to it all game. Fab never had a look in. Well done big man.
