I'd disagree, though perhaps I'm judging my own team more harshly. Chelsea were very poor in the first half, but I thought United took it to another level in the second. Their utter inability to keep possession was something to behold. So many players just not at the races, with special mentions for Cleverley, Evra and Valencia - who looks completely shot.

They have to play Fulham, Swansea, Everton, Chelsea and City in their next 5 matches. They could stack it all the way out of the CL spots.
Ridiculous mistakes for Liverpool's second and third, looked in charge at 2-1. Chance for Arsenal to get back in it but they are going to need to put a really good run together.
Still hoping Chelsea wind up 5th.

Ha ha, he's not Xavi but he's well above diabolical, which he what he was today.
That would be a very Spurs thing to do.

Torres falls and Ferdinand being a poor sport - YouTube
Anyone know the context behind this? What was happening at the time?

Agreed. Chelsea were dreadful in the first 15 minutes but actually began to piece things together as the half progressed. Of course the substitutions helped matters along massively, but if their goalie and central defence hadn't been completely abysmal for the goals, they'd have got away with it. Whereas Man Utd looked comically inept for most of the 2nd half.
They'll probably win at The Bridge though.
Shame that Ferdinand wasn't dismissed for doing to Torres what Terry did in Barcelona. Where was the Turkish ref when you needed him?

Except that this year they'll probably have the distraction of an FA Cup Final. Could be the undoing of them in the league.

Yeah, that was pretty poor from Rio but don't think the Ref could have seen it where it happened. Might be retrospective action though.

I think we'll hear a lot from Dave Whelan in the next few weeks about survival being priority, he knows the club will financially struggle without the Premiership. Martinez will no doubt tell the players not to think of the semi (especially as it shouldn't be too tough a game), and any final will be after the league is decided anyway.

Will definitely be trolling you back for this, right when you least expect it...
That De Gea save is ****ing ridiculous. Love how his two best saves for us have denied Mata a last-minute winner.

Spurs and Arsenal at their best are better than Chelsea. All depends if Arsenal show up between now and the end of the season.

Not that they had much of a chance anyway, but I guess that compounds it.
