:laugh: Chelsea.

David Luiz and Gary Cahill are cack.

Man Utd just so much better than Chelsea, if they hadn't dozed off for the few minutes where they conceded they ought to have bossed this easily. Great save from De Gea at the end as well.

Luiz lucky not to give away a 3rd penalty in stoppage time.

36 goals in the 8 games between the top 4 this season - mainly because Manchester City apart, everyone else has a crap defence.

Yeah, not sure how to feel - bloody ecstatic that we pulled that back from 3-0, but that was a ****ing ordinary Chelsea side there for the taking and I'm gutted we didn't get all three points.

Chelsea are horrid, and AVB is an idiot, Three holding midfields are only going to invite pressure, and Sturridge clearly not the striker to go off, if your going to take one off.

Great Comeback!!

Happy with the point, and that save at the end from De Gea was fabulous.

The defending for their goals was poor though, otherwise Chelsea were there for the taking.

Yeah, Citeh's isn't great either.

Another awesome match. Evra's was a clear penalty although he did really well to win it, Welbeck pulled the Pires trick for the second, kicking Ivanovic's leg on the way past him then falling over. Young's in the first half was a clear penalty though.

In other news, Torres is still **** and Chelsea are starting to get holes in the holes in their defence.

I think getting Romeu on was fine, they were so, so open at 3-0. Torres should've come off though. I'm pretty sure every mistake a Chelsea manager has made in the past year and a bit has been some variation of thinking Torres is less **** than he is.

I don't think Chelsea's direness is AVB's fault, he's inherited so many bad players that a lot of people still think are much better than they are.

They weren't really any less open when he took Sturridge off though, and they looked less likely to score too, after.

Getting rid of Alex, and persisting with Luiz, now buying Cahill. He's also the one keeping Torres on.

He may have had a bunch of over-rated tossers at the club, but he's done nothing to improve it, IMHO.

Yep brilliant save, and all the better that he and his still dodgy punching will be playing, for the next few games.

No-one in the league has a very good defence, Citeh's is the best, but it's the best of a fairly bad bunch.

Some decent attacks in the league though, that's slightly different.
