Captain without the armband.Have Cheksi had a shot on target this half?I saved you the trouble because ladies should never use the ‘c’ word
Sometimes it happens!It's Chelsea, ladsGreat to see the great man with a smileSir Alex checking the matchday thread.
Yep plus he has a better first touchThis is the defending i dont mind at all, not a single moment during this game we looked like bunch of cowards. Well fecking done.We look a real team.The great SAF with a huge smile on his face!
Absolutely great to see!
Regardless of Ole's abilities, one thing is for sure, the football won't be unwatchable and is likely to be even better with some signings. That's enough for me to be happy with after 4 years of watching shite on the pitch.Pretty sure my foreign commentator just exclaimed: "Zappacosta...he sucks coc*
Always interesting these streams.This has been an outstanding performance from us.
Absolutely outstandingPog BAAAAAAAAAFred is finished at this club alreadySir Alex hasn't seen many United victories at Stamford Bridge, must be pretty happyZappacosta has had a horrific cameo what the hell was that aboutSir Alex logged into his Caf account just then.

Hope we get City at home in the quarters. Don't want another crushing Wembley final defeat would rather take our chance while they have eyes on multiple competitions90+5 min
Stamford Bridge half empty but the United fans aren't going anywhere. They're enjoying every minute.Are there more United fans in the ground now than Chelsea?Honestly. Imagine if we had sold Pogba.
Agree. Great game as a teamSAF looking up from candycrush with a wry grin
Gutsy move and proves Ole will take no prisoners
Woops!This second half was just incredible from us.Didn't want to say it 60 mins in, but Chelsea have been incredibly toothless. For all this pressure on us, Romero hasn't had anything to do and I've not felt worried by their pressure at all.
Italian bias90+5 min
Late late corner for Chelsea as Young tackles Hazard in the box. The Belgian sends it in and Romero claims comfortably.Great performance from all the lads and a great way to bounce back after PSG.
Still laughing at how many on this forum thought Pogba was sh!te and wanted him gone. Clueless.Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. What a feeling, what a night.Full-time (90+5')Good tackle by Young there90+5 min
Full-time
Well that was very very satisfying. We've had plenty of miserable trips to Stamford Bridge in recent years (no win since 2012) so it's extra sweet to get the victory, knock Chelsea out of the cup (oh yeah they were the holders) and in such a huge game in our season.
Two first-half goals were the difference, both headers from fine crosses into the box, first from Herrera and then Pogba. In the second-half Chelsea threw everything at us but our defensive organisation was outstanding. We were under pressure again and again but every player defended resolutely and Romero had no saves of note to make. Really encouraging signs to see us defending so well after some of the shambolic defensive displays we've seen this season.
So we're into the FA Cup quarter-finals, with Manchester City the only team in the top 6 left in the draw. Let's see what the upcoming draw brings...
