Have to agree with the above comments, no pluses other than an away goal

 

With Rooney out what is the plan Saturday?

Shut up shop and lock Chelski out?

 

A draw would be a good result. I'd think a Chelsea win hands them the league as the GD would effectively give them 3 points advantage.

 

Rooney looked off the pace and out of sorts all night - can't help but wonder if his knee issue is worse than they are letting on , even before whatever he's done to his ankle.

Poor performance all round really (feckin gary neville gets on my ****...) except perhaps VDS despite shipping two goals.

 

Rooney out upto two weeks,sprained ankle.

 

I dont think Rooney was off the pace. He was getting **** all service or help which made him look like he had a bad game! We were p!ss poor, thats all you can say. I think against Chelsea we should give Diouf or Macheda a go, at least they will give 100% to prove themselves

 

Be nice to see Macheda get a chance

 

VDS

One of the twins, Rio, Vidic, Evra

Carrick Fletcher Giggs

Valencia Berbatov Nani

 

Won't be far off with that mate,but he may start with Park for Giggs ?Giggs with an a apprearance at some point maybe though.

 

I'd swap Scholes for Carrick, better ***** into the box that will **** the life out of Terry

 

A bad first half but looked a lot better in the second, some big decisions went against us at key times. That's football and we've benefited from a few ourselves. Well done Chelsea it's in your hands now.

Not over yet, not confident about the Spurs game

 

Beaten by the better side on the day, no one stood out for United all looked jaded, a bit concerned for Wednesday now

 

We'll lads - bad result alright.

We were poor by our normal standards sadly

 

You were only poor because of the opponents

 

Yep bad result Chelski still have to go to Anfield and whiteheart lane,a few more twists and turns yet and a Visit to city for us ? Getting whispers that Rooney will start on the bench on Wednesday.

 

I don't think he'll start on Wednesday - and even if he's fit I still don't think the should risk it
Keep him for the remainder of the premiership games
**** the world cup too - in the nicest possible way
I reckon we can win on Wednesday too

 

LOL Anfield, if Liverpool cant beat Birmingham how are they going to beat a Chelsea team concentrating on the EPL. United wont get 6 points from Spurs and City either.

Done and dusted in my opinion, you win the league over a season and we have coughed and spluttered our way through this one with no real cohesion and lets add no team has ever won an EPL with 7 defeats, Chelsea deserve it over the season we would have been lucky winners had we squeezed it, shame as it would have been nice to take 4 on the spin and make history. Oh well we can start again next season

 

Remind me how your lot got on at St. Andrews?

2 games lost at Anfield in the Premiership this season, same as yours at OT - not that funny is it?

Mind you, I don't mind us rolling over at Anfield for the greater good

 

We'll I reckon Liverpool and Arsenal will do Chelsea over

 

Arsenal? they going too have a tear up on the training ground?

 

Well skysports just confirming what we already knew,that Rooney is ruled out of Wednesdays game with the sausage munchers.

 

I think he should risk him. I mean, what's the worst that could happen

 

Lesser of the 2 evils?

 

He knows his stuff

 

Flightman-esque almost

 

I would fully agree that Liverpool not qualifying for the CL is for the greater good, United will win a 19th title in the next few years IMO.

Man City not being in the CL has been a major hurdle for them and the players that they could sign, knowing they have CL football they will be able to attract the best and that's a worry for a United fan never mind Liverpool. It would be hard for Liverpool to gain that place back IMO.

Ideally Spurs will qualify and LIverpool will still have a chance of qualifying come the game with Chelsea.

A bit off topic,but Messi has just bagged his 4th goal... Omfg !

 

1-1 just like yourselves, and we couldn't beat Chelsea

Still we managed to beat Birmingham at home so it wasn't all that bad and our tilt at the Premiership is still going with 5 matches to play (albeit a very slim one), at least it wasn't over after the first 5
