Have a little faith.

Ashley Young and/or Januzuj could still win a penalty.

[Whisper]

Don't forget Welbeck.

[MJB]

We have Hernandez on the bench, ask Stok how he usually does against Chelsea.

[Whisper]

Hey I hope I'm wrong. But goals were always likely to be a problem for us today. Forgive me if needing two of them doesn't fill me with confidence.

[Jimmy]

If you're still watching the game, at least you're doing better than Nerf yesterday

[FLiam]

That was a quality counter attack. Great pass from Hazard in there.

[Whisper]

I'm not sure I'm capable of actually turning off/leaving early.

Oh dear Oscar.

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

It's a bit of the same old that we've seen for a good chunk of this season. Just lacking with the final pass or shot in the final third. Been a pretty even game really. Quite gutting to go a goal down in the manner that we did against the run of play and through a big deflection, but it happens.

Crucial we don't go two behind. I'd certainly be switching Januzaj out wide in the second half and bringing Kagawa on for Young and into the center. Moyes got the setup wrong against Swansea and when he switched it to that we took control and looked much more threatening.

And as I say that we go two behind.

[FLiam]

Oh dear.

Awful defending. Awful.

Now I think it's gameover.

[Baddar]

There's the big difference. Being clinical. We've actually done well in this game.

[MJB]

Well that went well. Couldn't even hang on until half time

[Whisper]

Vidic plays EVERYONE onside and it's Evra and Rafael at fault?

Don't think so Gary.

Can't honestly say I've seen Eto touch the ball and not score this game...

[brenchill]

[Kaney]

As much as I hate Man U and would love to see Chelsea give them a right good drubbing, I'd kind of like them to drop points to ease the pressure on us. Hmm.

[Summers]

de Gea probably shoulda kept the 2nd out.

[therockbox]

[MJB]

Not really. He was just unlucky that it didn't hit him straight on. Eto'o is so close, it's impossible to react. It's all down to luck for the goalkeeper in that situation.

[Sam]

Oh for fucks sake, should have held his legs Valencia.
