Totally Sparky. I spent most of the match trying to work out which was the 'lesser' though.


On another note, why the hell were cards not issued for dissent? Mascherano would be spinning in his grave... were he dead of course.

Make no mistake about it ,Sir alex had Ronaldo on the bench because of his performance or lack of against Barca.If He would have played him from the start in this game Ronaldo would have been shut down as usual , and he will probably start to loose confidence .


Laughing Laughing Laughing You really do sound like an idiot sometimes. Not saying you are but if you really beelieve all you post i might consider it

He rested Ronaldo because he is his best player, THE best player in the world right now and he wants him fresh for the second leg of the CL final which is the more important game given Man U could lose this and still win the title. Wink


That's your opinion as it was my opinion ,but i will put myself calling you an idiot.Ronaldo being United's best player is questionable. I mean, if you're basing that on his goals then i have to question your intellect.
When you consider that Evra ,Ferdinand,Vidic, VDS and Tevez all perform in every match regardless of the level of opponent or importance of match,i find impossible to put ronaldo above them. Like i said before each to his own. I'm not really concerned with the opinions of the majority as you can already tell,and i don't just go against the grain for the sake of being different.

Even i thought if given the chance at a penalty Ronaldo would have buried it,but he bottled it big time.
I think when it comes to confidence Ronaldo is one of the toughest to break.But if he starts to look at why he hasn't done so well in the recent big games ,then his confidence will become fragile.

Well on that basis, half the defenders in the league would be better than him.

And if it's all about big games, then Dirk Kuyt is better than him as well.

I just hope Man U don't win the league on goal difference. That would be an awful way for Chelsea to not win it.


I agree 100%.

Very true, once again inconsistency rears its head.

At one point I couldn't believe how much Hargreaves was going on at the ref, certainly warranted a card.

I agree inconsistency in all type of decision is the main problem not the referees.
The penalty is given but another referee wouldn't simply because because they would interpret differently the rules, the offside rule is a joke for me and as for the dissent the campaign for cleaning up the players act did not last long Laughing

I can't believe Ferguson was complaining that much about the penalty, Carrick could easily have avoided using the arm, it was a stonewall penalty. Queiroz and Ferguson are both beginning to get on my nerves listening to their post match interviews in that respect, they are becoming as bad as a certain Frenchman. Vidic's injury looked painful.

well.. it's another weird formation set by fergie in this match.. so there's nothing much to hope.. T.T

and i felt really upset when vidic suffered from another nose bleed incident.. would like to sue drogba
for having a tough knee and for trying to kill vidic.. but no enough proof to go trial.. T.T

but Rooney managed to make me chuckle a bit when he scored in a non-fit condition and everyone wanted to give him a hug.. must still be having a little pain with his waist.. T.T

honestly.. i'm still uncertain about what carrick had done for a pk given against us.. tried to view the replay a couple of times already.. but the crowd wasn't very helpful.. T.T

hope we could return to the former best formation and win against barca this tuesday.. T.T

He went to kick a wall and caught a female steward, apparently.

Ha, if you say so.

Why would i say Chelsea don't deserve to win it, out of jealousy, when my more bitter of rivals Manchester United are the alternative? If Chelsea were 3 points ahead of Liverpool, 1st and 2nd respectively, then you might make sense.

I really have to question Grant not selecting Makelele for a match of this magnitude ,he's been solid the whole season.If he's saving him for CL then ok ,but Chelsea still ahve a chance to win the league and there are only a few games left to play.He cannot afford to leave Maka on the bench for the remainder of the season.All eyes must focus on the one game that has a chance of stopping United's claim for the league title,
West Ham.As i said earlier in the month this is the game that United will find tough outside of the Chelsea game.I see it as at least a draw if not West Ham squeaks it,Trust me.

What did you make of Wenger resting half his side for the Liverpool league game Specnur, sacrificing Arsenal's Premier League chances?

Chelsea v Manchester United
