eishhh! @Mwenza, the length people would go to prove a point...

THE MISS OF THE CENTURY

Haya so jana we were at the theatre of dreams with my ricdeelet, having left the Mrs at home (always a fab atmosphere when these 2 are playing)

As a Chelsea fan, i am so happy with yesterdays performance even if we lost this was clearly won ny luck no brilliance no nothing, we dominated every sector (some-one pull out the stats) shots on goal, total shots possession in midfield etc i the old trafford faithful were silenced for log periods something you rarely see, Yes Nani scored a wonder goal, we see that in games at times, but Rooney, Chicharito (did he even have ONE shot on target) Young were all snuffed out, the problem was in the right wing in Nani otherwise it was well played by Chelsea, if Ramirez had scored and make it 1-1 it would have been a very different game, Torres has surely passed the corner, we saw it in Leverkusen and jana, he will get better and hats off to Boaz-Villas for taking off the continously in-effective Lampard, he is squarely to blame the 1st goal even if Smalling was offside (he dint track the runner)and also Nani's second, he dint show any EFFORT when passed.

So verdict, yes Man U won but a lot of things to ponder and have i heard them saying they now are realdy to face Barcelona LOL surely the many goals against Bolton,Arsenal must have hoodwinked them totally, One thing for sure and lets admit it, Man U were SCARED of Chelsea yesterday and lets wait and see as the season progresses i like this Andre fellow!!

Ric dees, you should be worried that Man U thumped chelsea 3-1 even when not playing their best football!!!

The minute they went down 3 - 0 by half time they knew things were going to elephant. Memories of another team that was down 3 - 0 by half time must have come flowing back. Were it not for the sloppy passing and wasted chances, this would have been "Massacre at the Theater of Dreams - Season II".

But you guys be easy on Ricdees. He probably bought the cheap tickets - the kind you need to listen to the radio to know what's happening and yet you are inside the stadium. He should have been watching the big screen in the stadium but he wanted to see the game "live".

@Ric Dees...witha all due respect, we were not scared of Chelsea, not as a fan and certainly I doubt as a player - this is Old Trafford man! Just because our midfield was ineffective yesterday does not mean fear - be objective man, even if you watched the game at OT doesn't matter. Like someone has said, to be beaten 3-1 by a poor Man Utd showing should send shivers down your spine...imagine if we come to the Bridge guns blazing and humiliate you in your own backyard? Wacha fitina bwana!

As for Man Utd beating Barca, yesterday we'd have been torn to shreds if that was Barca - those two defense splitting passes by Anelka and Ramirez that both set off Torres with different results were very telling - Vidic and Rio are still vital to our cause.

Frankly speaking I don't know why Fergie didn't play Giggs in mid with Anderson but no worries, 3 points in the bag and Cleverly and Wellbeck should be back for those tricky away fixtures in Jan @Taz - depth wins titles,along with some luck and good football - not necessarily in that order.
