You wouldn't be saying that if that was a Liverpool player, what about Diego Costa's elbow on David De Gea.
We would have won anyway. It was only De Gea keeping you in it, and it was only a matter of time before we scored. Your dirty tactics backfired .Get over it.
You don't see things the way others do matth. Man utd were no way the "better team" you hadn't even had a shot at that point and De gea had already bailed your arses out with two good saves. It would have been more of a game if it stayed 11 v 11 and Man United were definitely still in it at that point, but there were not better at all.
Of course we were, we were controlling the game until Michael Oliver made it about himself, I will admit you dominated the game after that.
yup. Game would have been more open, for both teams, if it had stayed 11 v 11. Think we would have seen 2 or 3 goals if it had (not necessarily all from us, but in general). The sending off pretty much killed it as a contest.
It was ultimately predictable that Jose would turn United into bus parkers as he did with us. How the plastics will deal with that is anybody's business.
You're banging on about it all being unfair but ignoring everything that the Man Utd players did. Yes it was an unfair sending off we all agree. Yes Costa is a twat and was acting like a cage fighter more than a footballer. However Valencia red card and Rojo red card, Oliver also got those wrong and you want to avoid those incidents.
Wouldn't say you were controlling it but you were certainly playing well and pressuring Chelsea, might have gone either way if Oliver hadn't ****ed up.
I don't agree that Valencia's was sending off at all, he didn't get anywhere near the opponent's leg but did make contact with the ball. It wasn't the same type of tackle Rojo has been guilty of this season for instance. As for Hazard, he did start to exaggerate and it ultimately got Herrera sent off. Wrongly. All players do that though and Matth would be ing if it was happening to a United player. His reaction to Rojo inadvertently lightly placing his foot on his chest though? He barely reacted, let alone roll around on the floor. This tells you two things; 1, it was **** all so stop moaning about it and 2, that Hazard had the chance but did not exaggerate so was hardly a cheat. Non story lads, why waste your breath?
