    £90m for some haircuts, shít dancing, and one performance every 8 games. Bargain.

    Christ that Top 5 is tighter than Wenger's wallet!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,200 ✭✭✭superfurry1


    United really bent over and accepted that with a smile that was a very shameful performance.

    Meh, your old reliable aren't getting it right no matter how much they spend. It's funny watching the glory hunting Irish Man Utd fan section panicking and performing mental gymnastics as they don't know what to do with all that spite they normally unleash on other clubs.

    Oh but maybe if you buy 4 more players for 150 million it might work.

    Only 2 goals between the top 5.

    Fantastic performance from Chelsea. The new formation and setup is working very well so far. There's a proper balance to the side now and it's refreshing to see an actual left footed player on the left side and no Ivanovic on the right. It'll be interesting to see how it works long term as other sides adapt and attempt to counter it.

    As good as Chelsea were, United were equally bad. Some of the defending and individual performances were bordering on being disgraceful.

    I think Jose said something about '' foul on my players'' I think .
    Could be the Luis tackle he's on about .

    Not sure why what I posted is so hard to understand, I have explained multiple times. Please read back

    I did read it. The OP said he had one good game and you said he had two?

    I'm just saying if the fee was lower people would probably be fine with his performances so far. When people know he was 90m they expect more.

    Beaten by a better team fair and square

    United had more possession today. Moral victory goes to Jose.

    I'm not debating any of what you are saying. Not sure why you continue to try to justify the point you are making

    Jose will always always find someone/something to deflect the blame. In saying that Luiz's tackle was nasty, I think he more mistimed it but still was lucky.

    Yeah if you ignore what I'm saying and talk sarcastically it means I'm wrong. :) jeez, wasn't there another man utd fan acting the exact same way with me recently? Wonder what the correlation is. Cos there is no way I'm just right.

    I could make out 'uno a zero....quattro a zero'.
    I'd say it was something undermining the result like 'you'd won the match at 1-0 nevermind 4-0' or could have been suggesting the result was as good as 1-0 to Conte seeing as they have to play again.

    Ah here who's the spiteful one. Utd fans are being realistic in the main.

    Well if Mourinho was such a tactical genius, he could have turned his team around from 1-0 down to win the game.

  • Registered Users Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    The irony here was that these Chelsea players got to go out and play the kind of expansive football that Mourinho always prohibited. To do it so effectively and with such style against Mourinho's team must be sweet for a lot of those players.

    Let me know how it goes. Too painful to watch sky at the moment
    Don't fap too much!! :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    Theres a good lash of those chelsea players who wanted to put it up to Utd and their performanced today showed that. Hazard and Matic being two stand out players in that regard.

    A lot of sh*te went on last year regarding the players being terrible and jose maoning about them but it must have been a sweet victory for those players, whether it was 1 or 4-0 its only 3 points but its the confidence it brings from the manner of the win is whats good for chelsea fans and players a like.

    I love contes passion but i wonder is that what got up Joses backside when they were shaking hands at the end.

    The top 5 is seperated by 1 point. Nobody will walk the league this year it looks like, its going to be a hard fight and Utd are far from out of it. Theyre only 6 points behind is it, Utd will lick the wounds and come back, chelsea fans can cheer this victory, abu's too but its a long season.

    The 6/7 days rest really helped us too. Utd had 2 games in the same time we had 6 days rest, that helps and showed too.

    first time jose has lost by 4 clear goals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭justshane


    Jose keeps referencing the third and fourth goals as counter attacking goals, they weren't.

    Except no goal came from Chelsea counter attacking.
