Don't want to hear anything against Rafa for those two goals. Both player mistakes, both pretty bad goals to concede.

But you know as well as we all do that he will still get blamed by some people. "Why didn't he start this player or why was he starting ahead of him." It's inevitable.
 
chelsea have some great players on paper but they all seem lazy and dont run for each other enough they need to give their own players more options run the triangles at one stage mata had ball and his own player nearly tripped over him because he wasnt moving with any awareness or vision

Given that's pretty much Chelsea's strongest and most balanced team, I think it would be hard for them to say that. Perhaps Mikel instead of Lampard, but still...
 
******* pathetic and no it's nt Rafa it's those bunch of over paid ****** we put out on the pitch.
 
Mikel on for Lampard, wow spot on.

I'd have started with Mikel and brought Lampard on personally, but Rafa would be lambasted either way. I say Lampard's rubbish in a pivot, others would say Mikel's too defensive and shows negativity.

Excellent goal from Hazard. Bit of individual genius.
 
One suspects that if United were the ones who came back from 2-0 down, people would laud Ferguson and say Rafa's **** for not having used his bench effectively.

Benitez did well today, and must've given one belter of a HT team talk. Mata was the catalyst, and minus a couple of individual errors - harshly punished by United - Chelsea played well.
 
This was just like the 2-3 earlier in the season without the red cards. Very unlucky not to win.

De Gea :O
 
Great performance, takes a lot to comeback at OT. Good subs from Rafa.

Didn't want a replay but a good day with Spurs losing!
 
Credit to Rafa when it's due not often sad this but his subs worked a treat we looked like a different team in e second half and gutted Mata didn't win us the game right in the end. Hopefully we can carry on playing like we did in that second half for the rest of the season.
