Jesus Torres.

My lord. And for the first time this season a defender is following it up to clear it out.

Manc-Red

A Tail of Two Halves eh?

That was shocking. **** sake.

a ****ing disgusting 2nd half display from united

Paul Tergat

Sigh

United were atrocious for a good hour of that game!! Very disappointing.

Leiva

You really would sell that DE Gea fella.

Yea sell him.

RasTa

Worst second half performance this season, shocking. I'd give Valencia a 0.

Nailz

I'll take that after an atrocious second half showing. Lucky lads.

Johner

Should have won that! United lucky in the end to get the replay.

Nalz

Chelsea the better team by far, regardless of Uniteds start and chances in the first half.

Evans and Cleverley were poor. Evans did okay first half but he was awful second half.

blueser

Well done to Chelsea. Pity the game ended there though; going on that last half hour, there was only going to be one winner.

Manc-Red

United fell into that trap of thinking a 2-0 lead at half time was enough against Chelsea.

Big mistake..... Lucky to be in the draw tonight tbh

Will I Amnt

That was fairly pathetic. Just gave up possession constantly from start to finish. Rafael and Cleverley were a disgrace with their clearances and passes. A team with better forwards would have walloped us.
Probably our worst performance at Old Trafford this season.

The_Kew_Tour

Valencia and Rafa were shocking absolutely shocking.

Bionicle

United should count themselves lucky.

What did Ferdinand do?

tapped Torres with his foot at the back of his ankle and nudged him to the ground...cheeky kick out to be honest. If the ref saw it he might have went. Then picked Torres up and get him a mouthful. I wonder what Torres did to deserve that? Probably nothing.

United very lucky to get a replay.

Absolutely. I think Carrick and maybe De Gea are the only two players I wouldn't criticise.

Gutless is the best description I can come up with. I hope Fergie ****ing sows it into them in that dressing room. Unacceptable father lack of effort and application.

Chelsea were nearly as bad in the opening of the second half so fair ****s to youse for turning it around.


I'm actually dispondent after that non display from Utd.

Paully D

Any idea when the replay will be on?

markc1184

I hope Nani's injury is nothing serious. Valencia has been poor once too often now. Needs to be dropped for a few weeks. Cleverly done nothing but sky a shot and give the ball away.

De Gea for #MUFC preserves Sir Alex Ferguson's amazing record, in nearly 39 years as a manager, of never having lost after being 2 goals up

GavRedKing

Rafa for a full time contract hazard and mikel settled the team and made the play alot better.

Manc-Red

Hazard's goal was of the highest quality - superb

Professional Griefer

Big Dave loves making dem top class saves against Mata. Such a fantastic young goalie.

Did De Gea slip as he moved across to try cover it?

Not exactly an amazing record. No team should ever lose after being 2 up.

Great feet but he has chocolate wrists.

Whose job was it to pick up Mata today?

Looking at that second goal again what the **** was Evra at jogging back not bothering his arse? Disgraceful attitude.

Quite possibly - I wouldn't be taken the quality of the goal away from home though either way

Depends on whether Chelsea get past Bucharest, I would imagine. If they do, probably the semi-final date. If not, April 2/3.

BrownBear11

Cleverley doing 90? What's going on?!

He doesn't. He really doesn't.

I'm not the least bit surprised the performance picked up once Lampard went off and Mikel and Hazard came on. We had far more balance. However it's the character of the Chelsea side that deserves credit today, a stirring fightback.

The whole first half all we heard was how we were missing Terry's leadership, in the second half David Luiz stepped up to the plate, an awesome display from Brazil's first choice centre back.

Eden Hazard lit up OT when he came on, there are few more talented players in the Premier League, he was sublime.

Mata, Mikel and Oscar were all excellent too. It says quite a bit about this team that I'm a bit disappointed that we haven't won the game.

With this group of players, with a couple of signings and a few returning from loan and the right manager I think this is a group capable of challenging for the Premier League in the next season or two.

I've been watching the Limerick game since HT, but Mata was the outstanding Chelsea player from about 25-30 minutes inetting them into it.

What a poor performance by united in the second half.... Anyone any idea when the replay will be?????

Professional Griefer

Might get word of it here at the draw.

I beg to differ. In 39 years of management that is pretty impressive.

Nailz

Edgar Davids always looked like a badass.

Still set up for a Millwall v Chelsea final. Would love to see it just for the sheer anarchy it would be.
