    Mourinho's team have played for 36 points this season, and won 32. And we get a draw with that team? I'll take it, any time. Well done lads

    Catts is decent but I'm not sure about this. His passing is still very wayward alot of the time. Back end of last season and earlier this I thought he'd improved it but he seems to be going backwards in that regard imo. Until he learns to be less wasteful he will never get a callup in my opinion.

    Outstanding performance from every single player out there tonight. Catts was immense.
    I really thought we were going to knick it near the end, would have been deserved as well.

    If this is going backwards, lets all get in reverse, I am not Catts biggest fan by any means but he was amazing today and some of his football was of the highest order, and what did JOS have for breakfast, our senior players, in fact the whole team today where immense, a Sunderland goal at the death was all this game needed to be right up there with our recent miracle results against the top teams.

    Agreed. Needs to keep the ball 90-100% as he doesn't make didficult passes.

    I really thought we might get a winner towards the end. We were creating the clearer openings, although we struggled to find our way past their back 4. Excellent effort and excellent result <ok>

    To my mind Chelsea are one of the top four or five teams in the world, they've come to our place on top form scoring for fun and we've not only held our own but we could easily have got all three points. I think our defence deserves a lot of credit. So many players put a great shift in, Wickham must be knackered.

    Just got back. Very happy. Great result. Not a bad game from anyone. Catts, Vergini and O'Shea played the perfect game and should receive 10 scores. Chuffed.

    Big shout out to Rodwell too. He and Matic had the best passing percentage on the entire pitch today with 95%, Matic played about 200 passes more like but still, massive improvement from Rodders.

    i thought o'shea was brilliant yesterday. he had costa all game and absolutely clattered him a couple of times rattling him enough to put him off his game. i've never seen him that aggresive. more of the same please John.

    Couldn't agree more Nordic, I've been critical of both JoS and Wes, but yesterday every day of their Man Utd experience came flooding back, they were brilliant. If only Johnson had right foot, we would be in dreamland today.

    As a connor wickham fan i thought he was great today ,his work rate was from start to finish was first class which nullified Ivanovich attacking game ,for me he was on par with lee for MOTM,for a big man he covered a lot of turf and was willing to have a go ,pity that chance didnt fall to him at the end unlike aj he can use both feet,great performance from a team that now looks as though it has some substance and belief,same again against city i hope.

    I dont think Costa's 'elbow' was deliberate! If it was he disguised it well! He should maybe have been sent off for the tangle with O shea though! Maybe not!

    I tend to think it was and he should have walked, he is easily frustrated as is the SO and others, sadly its the only way to beat them, and boy we went so close.
