Either way someones in big trouble, Chelsea for being petty or Clattenburg for well, racism..
Petty if it isn't true, being sore losers in other words..That's not a petty accusation, it's very serious. Surely, of all clubs, yours should realise this?
Shame really. thre's been some great football today, but once again it's not going to be the backpage headlines. Just unsavoury ones.
I'm still trying to get over that first half earlier.
If anything we can take more heart from this game than them. Absolutely battered them after the first 20, was the best I've seen us going forward this season (Until Torres red). Spirited after we went down to 9 men and did well to limit them to only 1 goal.
And it's pointless trying to justify the fact United got the rub of the green by bringing up previous matches (and also intentionally not including a number of instances that went in United's favour).
If I was a United fan I'd be embarrassed to be overjoyed with anything other than getting the 3 points tonight.
Don't think anybody can deny Chelsea are serious title contenders after this match. We played well and Manchester United played very well too. Referee decisions aside, it was a great and passionate game. Also I am ****** at Torres. He has let everyone down repeatedly despite all the support. Hopefully Sturridge grabs his chance to play centre. Still Chelsea are top of the table so its not all bad
I am still livid with the ref mind, ruined a great game. Both sides with a lot to do on the defensive side when the emotions fade.
Why should they, when things went Chelsea's way in previous games and they won, did they feel embarrassed to win? I doubt it. Rather than pointless its a pretty salient fact.
Take more heart? You were at home, not the away team. And your own inability to defend transitions should not be ignored. Like United, yes you can attack, but can you defend just as well? No seems to be the answer. This has been shown up alreadin in Europe.
This was pointed out as an area to exploit before the game, and it was exploited repeatedly.
I didn't say they should. I said I would be if I was a Utd fan. Some of your fans outside the stadium were going on like you destroyed us, when you lot were extremely lucky to come away with a win.
It is quite pointless to bring up previous matches. According to some people's logic in here, it's ok for the ref to make mistakes because it evens it up from last time? Do me a favour. So if Liverpool score an offside goal next weekend it's ok?
If people are so fixated with the past, you fail to remember Welbeck's penalty last season, the two offside goals at OT, Evra's tackle on Ramires that should've been a pen in the UCL, and Macheda's handball. Just off the top of my head. Not that any of that matters now.
Our defensive frailties are well documented and I knew we'd struggle from the start. So I don't know what you're trying to prove. Was just saying we can take heart from coming back from two behind, and going on to look like we could win it. Just like United felt last season when you came back to 3-3?
Meh does not really matter, you win some decisions and lose some. That's how it is. Hopefully Chelsea get back on track next week with a win
As he should be.. Torres has constantly let the fans and the club down despite their overwhelming support. Hopefully Sturridge proves he as good as he says he is or I am half hoping the club lets Torres go in January. Really ****** with Nando....
Llorente is runnin down his contract...
