Good game. Exciting if anything! Love the cup ties that bring loads of goals.

Hazard is class.

United's young players are gonna learn loads from that. Also lucky United didn't finish with less than 11 players.

Yup Wooton should of gone and Keane too.

Drumpot

Lucky for United I only see one player from tonight starting on saturday . .

Dodd

And that is what a football match should be like.
Not the one at the weekend.:)

That all started from Giggs getting stuck into Chelsea when all looked lost l. .

When you mean stuck in do you mean going straight through the back of a player and be lucky not to be sent off.

Great entertainment from both sides. Chelsea just had a bit more experience and class.

Great game!

Difference really was the strength in depth between the two teams. United bring on Powell and Tunnicliffe, Chelsea can bring on Hazard and Oscar.

But the football was great. Such a shame about the penalty in the last minute. Thought Wootton had a great game up to that point and will be hard for him to get over it.

double GG

Would have took those 2 results against Chelsea if I was given them before Sunday. Fantastic games!

Look there's been a nice auld match thread being going here. Why not leave these bs out for one night?????.



Well done Chelsea. Pure class from Hazard at the end. Great game to watch.

Mr.Crinklewood

Fair play Chelsea, strong bench won it for them.

Why can`t threads be like this all the time. Two rivals debating a match, with no bitterness.

Ramires, what a player. Him and mata have been chelsea's best players this season imo. Hazard and oscar don't look too bad either

Not biting tonight niallo, was a good game and took alot of positives from it . . Thread was very enjoyable with no trolling until Liverpool game was over . . Some coincidence obviously . .

In fairness the starting 11's of both teams were fairly even in terms of experience. Utd had a front 6 of Nani, Fletcher Giggs Andy and wellbeck and Cico up front....hardly youngsters

Front 6 for chelsea was Mata,Moses,Obi,Romeu and Sturridge and Piazon up top.

Chelsea's subs were stronger, but they were loosing

Chelseas first keeper. Uniteds second keeper.
Chelseas first choice CBs. Uniteds U21 CBs.

Unhappy with the result but the stronger team won.
Proud of the United youngster though.

Ah well we need point out obvious.

Not many United fans trolling your match thread I bet;)

Anyway was good craic in here tonight. Was nice for change.

Dont ye ruin it.

Pj!

Was always going to be a tough two games against Chelsea in London but I'll take those results.

Closed the gap in the Premiership and the youngsters done very, very well against a strong Chelsea team.

Feel sorry for Wooton but he has a long career ahead of him.

Linders is not exactly a classic No2, he's played a good bit this year. But leaving that aside...starting 11's

Wellbeck, Hernandez,Nani,Fletcher,Giggs,Anderson and Rafa all arguably 1st team players. That makes 7

For chelsea Sturridge,Mata,Obi,Cahill,Luiz Cech, Bertrand all 1st teamers.
That also makes 7.

For united Buttner is pushing for the first team as is AL.

The subs were much stronger for chelsea but i fancied that utd team on paper b4 the game for experience alone

Great game of ball. Was fairly evenly matched until Chelsea brought on the big guns, we weren't able to cope at the back.
Also missed Ando when he went off, he was class tonight.

Eh, did you watch the United v Chelsea game in the league ? That was our starting 11 . .Methinks you are clutching at much straws . .

Have to say Mata is turning into a gem of a player.

Eh, Sturridge MOTM?! Pfft.

If anything you are echoing my point of not ruining a good thread.
You replied with the obsession snide to a perfectly valid post, so you need to take a look at yourself before falsely accusing me of ruining anything :pac:

I'm done with this do no need to reply.

It would probably reflect better on Chelsea if all that were true but it really is not.

Two kids playing at CB for Utd though. Stood out a mile when the team sheets were released.

Not trying to take anything away from Chelsea btw. Credit to both teams. 9 goal thriller, brilliant stuff to watch even if my team were on the losing end

Great game, tv picked well this round

Chelsea look class going forward

OK. no need to make meal out of nothing. Was not talking to you in first place. Good luck.

Some really good positives tonight, the main one being Ando MoTM.

I was being a cranky git with some of the Chelsea lads until the likes of niallo and Leiva appeared. Then you really appreciate how good the match thread was tonight until the regulars showed up.

Good game.

Ran out of steam with about 10 or 15 minutes to in normal time and the tank was empty in the extra time but he covers so much ground its very understandable

As one of the lads said to me before "BOBFOC" body of baywatch face of crimewatch !!!

Were excellent going forward but ugly at the back

Pj!

People definitely got a bit too excited about Nani after his goal.

yabadabado

Good game,lack of experience cost united tonight but cant fault giving the young lads game time either.said it before the game it was a huge risk playing both Keane and Wotton at CB.Pity we didnt but a few of the first teamers on the bench but I suppose it shows where the priorties lie.

I was one of them. But even for bad game he can still get goal or assist.

Not one of those players started in the far more important league game couple of days ago . .Reckon thats a better barometer of what Fergie considered to be our best team at Stamford Bridge. .

Ahh grow a fücking set and stop making up stuff that's not true.

Sorry to the rest of you as I enjoyed this thread and only made 2 posts in the last 15mins, but really feel the need to reply to people just making stuff up and on a thanks whoring exercise.

What? Did you watch the goal he scored from start to finish? Sure he didn't have a good game but even with that he produced a world class move and goal.

As I said earlier in the super thread, I think Nanis poor form this season is clouding their judgement of him overall and how much he has contributed to Utd.

On another note, Hernandez link up and hold up play has improved beyond belief.

FutureGuy

Great game, good experience for the younger players but as I said at the start of the match , we had no one on the bench to turn the game around if needed whereas Chelsea had Ramirez and Hazard. Hazard was superb.

Looking forward to Saturday.

The majority of the United team are not first teamers. United also had 2 U21 CBs starting.
Buttner is nowhere near starting for United.

Chelsea are turning into some team though. Oscar, Mata and Hazard would put the fear of hod in anyone.

yabadabado

Chelsea really do have unreal attacking midfielders/wingers if they can get a good CF they will be awesome.RB and CF seem to be their only weak links.
