Drinkwater ahead of Francesc from the start was a bit laughable considering how unadventurous United are.

Controlled the entire 2nd half upto this point but sure see what you want.

That was a very tight call on Morata. Right though.

Looks like it wasn't the right call in the end.

Morata unlucky to be judged offside in fairness.

Wonderful from Lukaku.

Not a straw... he was onside. Another example of why they need video replay.

You do realise this result suits everyone. He was onside though.

Brilliant from Lukaku

not sure why there is no urgency with Willian... strolling around

Did you miss the wibbly wobbly wonder VAR?

Mr.Nice Guy

Tactical masterclass from Jose. Tied Conte up in so many knots by flooding the central midfield and marking Hazard tightly that Conte ended up hauling off his best player. He also had the sense to recognise Martial was mediocre and replaced him with Lingard who got the winner.

Outstanding stuff and as a nice bonus today also destroys the theory spouted by many several months ago that United should have gone for Morata rather than Lukaku.

A grand day.

Turtyturd

Shocker from Conte. I know Giroud is a fairly sh!t alternative but the persevere with Morata is bizarre. Almost like he wants to be sacked.

You can't be offside with an arm I thought.

It was the best result for Liverpool. Puts 4 points between them and Chelsea with Chelsea to play City next week.

Yah but it was deemed pathetic form a Liverpool POV not a chelsea.

So need to use it as the benchmark

I bet if you look at City's it's like 20 points in those games :pac:

So many players talking on invisible Walkie Talkies .

That’s a great result for both United and Liverpool in fairness with City next up for Chelsea it looks like Spurs will make up the top 4

Bret Hart

Not the best performance but the win was crucial here. Been a good week for Utd.

Chelsea under serious pressure now for a top four spot. Realistically, they're gonna need to win the Champions League now to get back into it.

I never said it was pathetic. Liverpool haven't done as well this season against the other top 6 though as last year.

It's the result that Spurs would have been hoping for as well. City have the League wrapped up so everyone else's goal is Top4 for CL qualification. Once Top 4 is secure then you can be pissed if you finished 3rd instead of second.

A Liverpool fan earier did

Credit to Lukaku.

He takes a lot of stick for disappearing in these games, but he showed great composure for the 1st, and produced a cross he begs for for the second.

He stood up today and showed some class.

Chelsea will feel they left that game behind them though. They were sucker punched twice really.

And? Just because one fan said it doesn't mean everyone thinks it.

Enjoy your win and forget about your point scoring for your imaginary internet points.

Souness needs to get glasses, he couldn't see anything that Sanchez did in the game.
He was in the build up to the Lukaku goal.

He got away with having to say anything positive because of the cup final

His bitterness knows no bounds :pac:

Demosthenese

United showed today why they are still a dangerous team despite seeming like they've no form in last few weeks. Closed that game out really well and Chelsea ran out of ideas in the last 15mins. It puts their dire performance midweek into perspective. Just cos they play **** football doesn't mean they are ****. I'd say there's alot of CL teams that don't wanna draw them in next round.

Disagree with that. I think the first half was pretty much even and 1-1 was a fair representation of that but second half United were much the better team. Sucker punched would imply that Chelsea were superior and United got lucky when that obviously wasn't the case at all

I think he means the offside that was inside? Not sure what the second one is though.
