I'm a United fan and I'd say that what Rooney did on saturday was thuggish, I don't think he's a proper full on thug.
I know he's had his moments but he's a far way from the likes of Joey Barton and John Terry.

And Gerrard. Don't forget Gerrard.

Expecting a tight match,low scoring..

A draw and a win next 2 matches,any way will do for me.

TheDoc

Feeling a United win Tuesday and at the weekend.

I'm sure the manager and players know that two wins this week would effectively seal the title.

Too much at stake for players not to perform .

And as shocking as it might be to say, I feel Chelsea ar emoving the ball way too slow moving forward these days, something the United back four will deal with effectively, also gives Carrick time to adjust sinc eit takes him atleast 2 minutes to grasp whats happening.

Le King

1-1 or 2-1 the Chelsea players will be dying to prove a point.

SantryRed

Sh1t game as most top 4 clashes. 0-0 borefest.

KeithAFC

2-0 Chelsea

Yup. Up in court over assault, several off the ball challenges and add a few two footed lunges into the mix aswell and you'll find that Wayne Rooney has nothing on the guy.

Jesus. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

The point was being made that Rooney isn't as much of a thug as others ie. Gerrard, yet he's seen to be and opposition fans forget about their own players before condemning him.

Chillax.

SantryRed

Still has nothing to do with this match.

flahavaj

Thread looks like being an absolute classic.

Nailz

I agree, it has nothing to do with this match, but it doesn't mean PHB's post wasn't a bit over zealous. If anything this discussion should be in the Wigan match thread, where it has been already.

What did rooney do? Does it involve grannies?

It always involves grannies with Rooney. The reason he elbowed McCarthy in the face on Saturday was because McCarthy's granny is dead so he couldn't get anything off her. Clattenberg had to give Rooney a hug after this to console him.

0-0 or 1-1 IMO.

Sad state of affairs when my earlier posts aren't the worst in here!

Ordinary man

After the start to this thread rooney is destined to single handedly win the match himself:cool:

KaiserGunner

Hoping for a win for Chelsea but I would take a draw either. Hopefully Chelsea are fired up for this one anyway. A fairytale story would suggest that Torres gets off the mark for his new club, so Im going for a 2-1 Chelsea with Torres as first goalscorer.

seafood dunleavy

Anyone know if Giggs will start this game?

Just think of the extra money 4th could get you.


BTW Why am I being served university of liverpool ads, Typical soccer forum bias.:D

everdead.ie

For the craic I really hope Rooney scores a hat trick any type of united win would be great.

Here is a reconstruction of the Chelsea intern shooting incident.

Seems to me somebody plays a bit too much GTA and thought he was on a "Kill Frenzy" mission. Shoot as many interns as u can in a minute. :pac:

Yeah same boat

Dreading this match. 1-0 Chelsea with a Torres goal!

FutureGuy

Given the fact that Rooney got away with assault and Cole got away with shooting someone, I can see a 0-0 with 3 failed assasination attempts, 2 decapitations and 4 attempted rapes.

That would be ideal for Arsenal, although I'm sure we'd just feck it up by losing at home to Sunderland!

Yeah, I'm not going to get my hopes up, but we do have a nicer run-in. Hope the match tonight isn't as dull as I'm anticipating, they tend to be though!

smuckers

think it will be 2-0 but the old guard will come up triumphant for chelsea.

Terry to get the frist and Drogs to get second.

0-0.

VDS, Rafael, Smalling, Vidic, Evra, Nani, Scholes, Fletcher, Carrick, Giggs, Rooney.

We are due a slice of luck against Chelsea, lost to them twice controversially and lost the league by one point. Drogba's offside goal at Old Trafford last season, and the debatable free against Fletcher which lead to Chelsea's goal at Stamford Bridge where Brown was possibly fouled as Terry scored, and Drogba possibly interfering with play....

Fair enough the game at the bridge we got a bit luck, but don't forget at Old Trafford both teams got a bit of luck tbh. Anelka should have had penalty and Park possibly should have too, Drogba's goal was offside but Macheda's was a blatent handball, it evened itself out in that game.

Heard it all now, Utd are due a slice of luck alright. If they get any more luck Fergie will expose himself as a Leprechaun.

Don't be silly. There is no such thing as Leprechauns.

Last 5 seasons at Stamford Bridge
2010 Chelsea 1–0 Man Utd 6 yellows
2009 Chelsea 1–1 Man Utd 8 yellows
2008 Chelsea 2–1 Man Utd 7 yellows
2007 Chelsea 0–0 Man Utd 7 yellows
2006 Chelsea 3–0 Man Utd 6 yellows
Average Chelsea 1–0 Man Utd 7 yellows
Average goals 1.8
Advice based on these statistics therefore is to bet under 2.5 and certainly over on a card index.
Interesting stats for this season that go against each other are that Chelsea are joint top for clean sheets but Manchester United have only failed to score in three games.
Advice based on not stats say that this will be a boring, dour game. The main point of interest will be how Vidic fares against his nemesis Torres. Torres has the indian sign over Vidic from his Liverpool days but has achieved nothing of note in the blue of Chelsea. If I had to put my house on a correct outcome I would back United +0.5. If this were Manchester City I would expect them to play negatively, but with Chelsea, I don’t know what Ancelotti will ask his troops to do, but if they come out and attack, Ferguson will have his side ready to counter. Most likely goalscorers, but not that likely are Torres or Chicarito.

umm, selectivly forgetting machedas handball. The first game was hard luck against us alright.

TerryTibbs!

United fans are funny. Lost last game controversially! Drogbas goal was as legit as Machedas .
