Due to the time difference I wasn't able to watch the game, have it recorded at home, but it doesn't seem like a game worth watching. So Chelsea lined up with Cech sitting behind a big blue bus? If this is how even title challenging teams will play against us, maybe Moyes should just sign someone to write parking tickets. Could make enough money to buy Bale and Ronaldo.
There were two chances when we could have scored. Only if Wayne and Welbeck had chosen the better option of passing to vanPersie than being too eager to prove themselves. Cleverly played to his strengths and was better than most of Chelsea's midfielders. Well done to Moyes for passing this preliminary test.
I should have watched a film. So it's Liverpool v Man Utd next, not a fixture I enjoy but you can bet that it will be more interesting and intense than tonights game.
I cant complain with the result, UTD and Sir David are renown slow starters, but Chav FC always hit the ground running, also they played to draw, the Jose way. I think Sir David could be a quite good UTD manager, Jose on the other hand will be out soon enough with his anti football style play.
This, it was the special twat that ruined the game last night with his park the bus tactics, i expect goals on sunday.
A Liverpool vs Utd game will have goals - and more than likely be a cracking game. High intensity, free flowing football. **** all this parking the bus for 90 mins.
Jose has created a nice problem for himself with Lukaku, Torres and Ba. He either has to admit he was **** scared of United so played without a striker or that he doesn't rate any of his strikers. Either way it's hard to put a positive spin on things. Mata will also be majorly demotivated. As Jose said, for a player to be selected for his country, normally he must be first choice at his club. Very poor man management.

Maybe its because our brains liquified and dribbled out of our ears after watching such dross. Terrible game. Both teams afraid to lose. Mourinho didnt want to fail his first real test and Moyes' to afraid to lose his first game at OT. Utd had more possession as you would have guessed at home. We just set out to nullify and counter. But with no real striker that was never going to happen. Your guys kept getting pressured on the ball and couldnt give RVP any service. Rooney was the only glimmer in that game.......Advertising himself to both managers maybe?
Do you think Mata, Torres, Lukaku and Ba will be bouncing today? Man management used to be one of Mourinho's strengths. Perhaps he has disappeared too far up his own arse and the toxic atmosphere he created at Real Madrid wasn't a one off. Very bizarre team selection last night to top off his public courting of Rooney which at times has been embarrassingly desperate.
