so the philosophy does work regardless of the players.

Seems that way. I was just thinking how nice it is to have a tactically astute manager.

We really should capitalize on this good spell, Chelsea will realize there is a football match going on any minute now.

Falcao not being made to involve much in the build up at all.

Like Rooney last week, he just has to control the CBs movements.

JB08 · Apr 18, 2015

Miss the Herrera-Mata combination

Shamwow · Apr 18, 2015

Smalling been dominant so far...

RetroStu · Apr 18, 2015

You just know we are going to be sucker punched, it fecking sucks.

Chelsea will be happy with this. Just waiting for a sucker punch

I doubt if I was in their situation I would be happy with this especially given Costa isn't playing.

Sucker punch could obviously happen but if the shoe is on the other foot I would want more than what's been showed.

Mystry · Apr 18, 2015

Herrera has been doing a great job so far dictating the play.

To be honest, it's been pretty similar to Wazza's against City so far. Sitting in between the two defenders and trying to drag one or two out of position. When Rooney did it, it was being lauded as one of his best performances for United under LvG according to Gary Neville. I'm looking forward to hearing his analysis on Falcao's performance today if he keeps this up.

This is so annoying! Is time Warner not showing this?! NBC is showing college football?!

Is Chelsea going rope-a-dope here?

McNair isn't shy is he? Great to see.

Ole's_toe_poke · Apr 18, 2015

We are playing well. But really missing Carrick. Noone is able to switch the play like him.

Surprised how they have started.

ha_rooney · Apr 18, 2015

Excellent start.

Señor · Apr 18, 2015

Whose that nervous centre back playing for us? Is it McNair? Oh no, it's Smalling.

Dobba · Apr 18, 2015

Was Van Gaal asked about the length of the time the injured players will be out for pre-match?

Trizy · Apr 18, 2015

Shaw

Chorley1974 · Apr 18, 2015

lush, just need a goal

JB08 · Apr 18, 2015

All Chelsea need is one chance. Then all this possession means so much less.

How good are we now

Aye. Win or lose, I'm loving how we go to the opposition now and impose OUR game on them. Fantastic. Credit to Louis.

dannyrhinos89 · Apr 18, 2015

This is a fantastic start

Shaw looks dangerous

Herrera is dictating the midfield

thegregster · Apr 18, 2015

Shaw attacking play has really improved.

Smores · Apr 18, 2015

I pray Herrera doesn't get injured, he's quite integral to that energy in midfield

ScarleyUtd · Apr 18, 2015

That was a lovely build up for that corner.

Mali_Zeus · Apr 18, 2015

We are totally dominating them. Brilliant start.

prarek · Apr 18, 2015

Chelsea may be effective but god they're boring to watch.

Moriarty · Apr 18, 2015

Well in Young. Should have elbowed Fabregas on that stupid mask.

Flying_Heckfish · Apr 18, 2015

If we just stand on Hazard at corners they have 0 outlets for the counter

Anustart89 · Apr 18, 2015

67% possession :lol:

mu4c_20le · Apr 18, 2015

Chelsea are standing off, they seem happy to leave with a draw

His touch has looked a little sharper so far too, nice little lay off to Herrera.

Señor · Apr 18, 2015

It really is impressive to see us playing like this despite our injury situation. It's making me even more confident in Van Gaal as its the system that's working wonders for us, not necessarily the players in the system.
