Looks like he is denying it so hopefully the double the punishment. Fair play to Gerrard that he came out after the match and admitted and took the blame.

Pillow talk to protect his image imho, no apology to Herrera which he should have done, just thinking about himself...

It is, but not everyone is on the verge of joining the MLS in a high profile arrival with sponsors potentially falling over themselves for the next big thing from the Prem, they dont want him stamping on people, it doesn't fit with their wholesome hero demographic.
Just me being cynical wouldn't have hurt to apologise to the player, most players do when they've been busted in these types of situations.

Hummels seems so nailed on if you believe the press, I really hope so.
Varane or Marquinhos to partner him, and Clyne on the right.
Cavani in for RVP, I like the sound of that.
De Pay in for Nani, yes please.
As for these silly stories about Sterling, I dont want him plus it would never happen

What a transformation. Watched the Derby three times now and some very strong performances. Feel very comfortable that the reds are back in business and extremely optimistic for the remaining games.
It's been a long time coming but normal service has been resumed.

I thought they would loose against Chelsea, but to be fair they played well.
Falcao let side down, gave away free kick, gave away ball straight after which gave them another shot on goal. Lost the ball that gave the them the goal, although he was fouled. Then missed few chances on goal. Bring back Wilson
Good points was Paddy McNair was amazing, took the ball forward took few shots on goal, looks very promising. I'd put him on ahead of Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Jonny Evans
If they had bought Wilson on might have scored

McNair has a sweet shot on him, didn't realise. Performance was excellent. We just miss a world class finisher . . . Falcao should be that man but if he can't do it at Utd he needs to move on.
Rooney should have started or gone up front. No excuses on that one, we had enough options in mid-field to allow that to happen.
Any prospective signing watching the match would have been pleased by what they seen.

I saw why he put Rooney in midfield, who else could do that job?
Needed a defence and attacking minded player, only 3 are Blint, Carrick, Rooney and other 2 were injured. Falcao needs to go, hes rubbish, he can't score, hes to week on the ball, hes not got any decent pace, only thing he's good at is work rate, not good enough for man u

Falcao has been **** poor. Too easy to get off the ball, slow, really bad touch and poor positional play. Its amazing someone with his CV just cant get it on in the premier league.
Chelsea did what we knew they were always going to do - park the bus and hope for a lucky break which they got. Even so it was poorly defended - Valencia is right back ffs and was strolling back even though a massive gap on that side of defensive. I must admit he has been playing a lot better in general since moving to right back but he needs to be more aware when defending. The vast majorities of decent attacks (in all games not just this one) come down the left because there is so much space left.

I thought we played well again, didn't deserve to lose that game, as for Maureens comments about United being in chelsea's pocket, sometimes he just needs to suck it up and not talk so much ****.
Chelsea deserve the title this season but they're not all that and we have a lot to look forward too
Simon is spot on about Falcao, as much as I wanted him to succeed he does look lost a lot of the time which has been a real shame.
On a plus PSV have announced that they've had contact with United over Depay
And on another plus, Villa made the semi's

Depay don't look to bad, hopefully can get him, maybe Robin may follow and encourage Van p to start scoring loads of goals aswell
