Manchester United 1:1 Chelsea

Post-match discussion


Thu, 28 April 2022

The biggest positive is that all the players wanted to play and still showed some hunger. I think the squad can be salvaged - just need to hit some form somehow.

The best thing I can hope for is a good pre-season and easy first couple of months next season when the fixtures are announced.

EDIT

Our players are almost always at the incorrect position for second balls in these games, I just don't understand it.
 
When Mata is your paragon of intensity, you know you have issues
Should just play him for the rest of the games we have left.
 
No Maguire = defence is only a bit shit. Find a way to get better players than Dalot and Telles in the team and we might even edge up towards good.

Enjoyed that 2nd half after another god awful first half. Little steps.
 
As dog crap performances go, that was one our less dog crap performances. Still a million miles away from where we should be though. Roll on the summer.
 
Must have been nostalgic for Chelsea fans to see Mata and Matic playing.
 
Better second half. If Elanga didn't get sucked in Chelsea wouldn't have scored. But can't fault him too much as he did provide much better cover on LW than Rashford in the 1st half. Great ball from Matic for the equalizer, tried his best out there to make something happen.

Ronaldo was fantastic. Not just the goal, but the overall effort level shown. Even more remarkable when you consider his age and what he has just gone through. That is how a professional footballer operates.
 
Should have lost by a fair few, instead Ronaldo bailed us out yet again.

Defence needs fixing, all over the place at times.
 
Chelsea are crap. Couldn't even put away the worst team in the league.

This pleased me. Much better attitude. It's the least they can do when fans are spending time and money still supporting them.
 
Bruno seems to fancy himself as an abstract performance artist with his passes these days.
 
A bit more effort given by the players 2nd half and it produced a draw against the 3rd best team in this league. Imagine if these players gave the required effort all season? Chelseas goal came from their only shot on target in that 2nd half what Dalot was at on it only he knows.

Thankfully only 3 more United matches to watch in a truly miserable season.
 
Plenty of effort but as we all know, you have to keep the ball better and this bunch simply can't.
 
My goodness out of all the players that really need a break and have a long hard look at what way they want their career to be remembered it's Rashford. Just nothing from him at all.
 
Thing that annoys me is the players who look to me like they're trying are the older lads who have actually won things.
 
Ronaldo was the hardest worker out there tonight which says a lot...

No idea where we'd be without his goals
 
Imagine coming off the back of the likes of City vs Real Madrid and Liverpool vs Villarreal to watch……this.
 
Great goal by Ronaldo and nice assist by Matic too. Other than that not much to celebrate. Also good to see a youngster get a debut although I always feel bad when not given enough time to even get a touch on the ball.
 
I just want next season to start already. It’s going to be a long summer :(
 
Great goal Ronnie after a nice pass from Matic.
Apart from that pure dross. Our fullbacks suck, McT and Rahsford are hilariously bad
 
At least it was not a defeat , and in these times that almost feels like a win , showcases how standards have fallen at the club.

Yet again completely dominated by any half decent team we play and saved by yet again by Ronaldo.

On our performances it is actually hard to see how we have managed to stay in the top half of the table.
 
I don't know why the pundits are bigging Chelsea up, I felt they were almost just as dreadful. We probably even edged it in the second half with these jokers
 
Hilarious that our first two subs were Mata and Phil Jones. Both played well enough but still...
 
Sometimes I wish for a SEVERANCE type implant so I can forget how poor we are when not watching them.
 
Shocking first half, how Chelsea didn’t feck us in the arse proper by halftime I’ll never know but thems the breaks.

Much better in the 2nd half and I thought Ronaldo (the problem) my MOTM, tracked back, fought, Rashford ‘ave a look and ‘ave a word with yourself.
 
We didn't lose.
Didn't get a sniff in the 1st, were a bit better in the 2nd.
