Sancho is continuing his shite form. Almost every attack died when the ball reached him. Needs a benching for the next game. Elanga actually more dangerous in 10 minutes than Sancho in 50.
That's a shite penalty decision though, given how often it happened and not get punished

fell asleep with 10 minutes to go and got woken up by Casemiro screaming

What an image

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

The least we deserved. Well done to the lads for fighting till the very end.

 

[Mickeza]

So we smashed them for 35 minutes then after that it was very tight and even with them getting a penalty that rarely get given and somehow a draw is a fair result? feck off sky. We should have won that.

 

[bosnian_red]

Thank feck for Casemiro. Absolutely world class player.

1st half we were better, 2nd half was pretty much dead even. Dumb penalty to concede but the game was going for a 0-0 if not for that, ended 1-1 due to the little push. Huge shame for Varane, hope it's nothing much but I doubt that. No idea what he injured.

Antony i thought was pretty good but quiet 2nd. Bruno was good IMO, Eriksen a bit shit throughout, Casemiro easy MotM. Back 5 very good as well, nothing to comment on there. Sancho was shite. Rashford was quiet. Eriksen shite. Those 3 were the reason we struggled IMO.

Get fecked Chelsea

There's only one Roy Carroll

How on earth can you fall asleep in such an intense game

 

[sirAlexsglasses]

Now this is looking like a United team, never give in and keep at it until the final whistle, teams under Ole would have folded straight away. And as for McT he has no footballing intellect at all, one seriously cheap and easy foul to give away.

 

[Catt]

We need a striker badly.

 

[lex talionis]

[saivet]

Worth watching back the full 90 or just stick with MOTD? I missed the game but had it on record.

 

[JonnyIreland]

Feels like a victory, even though the single point says otherwise. Loved the passion from Casemiro after the goal, just what we need. Hope Varane is ok

 

[RG 11]

There's only one Roy Carroll

 

[RaddyRed]

If we had Haaland we would win the league.

 

[DevTheRed]

Lack of options up top lost us that game, we need reinforcements in Jan.

Judging by his reaction it’s bad but hopefully Varane has a speedy recovery.

 

[MadDogg]

Shaw finally put the ball in himself there at the end, and it's what got the goal. He's been playing very well these last few games but the one thing that has been noticeably lacking is his delivery into the box. Not that it's been bad, but that he's barely been doing it at all. He's capable of wonderful crosses so hopefully we'll see more of them going forward.

I think Varane did his knee

 

[BlueHaze]

What even happened to Varane? I totally missed it.

 

[CloneMC16]

Thank feck for Casemiro.

We were excellent in the first half. Should have been ahead. We definitely fell off in the second, but Chelsea didn't really do anything. We gave a stupid pen away and almost handed them 3 points. Happy with a point in the end. The team is clearly improving.

 

[bosnian_red]

Game is 90 minutes. The last hour of pretty much nothing from either, draw is fair. Didn't deserve to lose at all, but the game was just sloppy in midfield and attack after the first 30 where yes we dominated.

 

[Globule]

Could have won if we finished our chances (not the first or last time that's going to be said this season), but I'll take that result considering the way the game developed.

Considering Chelsea's defensive record, the fact that our players must have been fuming with the officiating and (wrongly) aggrieved by the penalty, I think it's a positive sign that we ended up equalising.

Also chuffed with Casemiro. Said it after the Tottenham game, but his first goal has been coming so he couldn't have picked a better time.

 

[Abraxas]

Just lacked the intensity today after that colossal effort against Spurs. Slower to the ball, passing tempo down, seemed fairly happy to settle into a lethargic pace and accept a draw in the second half after a reasonable first. I think we slightly edged it but ultimately can't really argue with a draw.

 

[KirkDuyt]

Started very well, didn't watch again u til 80th minute. That ball mustve been like 1 cm over the line tops.

 

[baskinginthesun]

Didn't really think Chelsea deserved that. Thought we were better throughout. The 2nd half was a lot more even but, we still created far better chances than Chelsea did.

Penalty for something that usually doesn't get called. Meh! Don't really think McTominey didich wrong in that situation.

Great response though and it's good to see this transform and actually fight back.

 

[altodevil]

Need a striker - need to improve the bench

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

Martinez is so good, i'm in love

He’s already one of the top defenders in the league. Times every tackle to perfection.

 

[RomfordRed75]

The draw was a fair result. I love Casemiro. Boy do we need a striker in January

 

[Baxquux]

Desperately need a Centre forward to supplement/replacement Martial. Part of the reason for lack of balls coming in, particularly first half, after so many promising positions, was not having that focal point even if they're not Haaland level with Marcus drifting or not getting across the defenders. Some nice interplay but too akin to late- Wenger Arsenal once we're actually in the box.

Still should have sneaked this if we hadn't had heedaball McTom doing god knows what on that corner. The refs giveleeway for 50/50 digs and tugs on set pieces but he was never going to get away with anything so one-sided. Absolute lunk behaviour.

 

[always_hoping]

Three points almost gifted to Chelsea with a total lack of discipline by McTominay. It was a game that had 0-0 written all over it 2nd half when it was a tactical dull affair. Some header by Casemiro to earn the deserved draw. The lack of clinical edge was clear to see again in the 1st half when United was on top and created good opportunities. Can Ronaldo be swapped for a goal scoring striker in January?

The injury to Varane overshadows the decent result. Varane was in tears as his teammates tried to console him. Looks like he knows it's a serious a injury.

Murtfoh said we were not getting anybody in Jan

 

[city-puma]

Chelsea’s squad depth is superior than us. We are a little tired. But, our performance is great, especially considering we just played a great game Wednesday.
Our transformation is definitely in the last phase. We will see more consistent control and dictation in games.

 

[Sarcastico]

Our general play has improved very much. Just need to work on our final ball.

 

[Desert Eagle]

Overall we were the better side. Created the better chances, showed more intensity and creativity especially in the first half. At twenty minutes we were at 70% possesion at SB, pretty fecking good.

Really unfortunate with the Varane injury and the penalty. Sancho and Eriksen were really bad but the system allowed us to not get run over.

Big boy Casemiro with his first league goal and what a way and time to get it.

We're starting to look like a decent team.

 

[gearoid]

In the end, a draw was a fair result. We need to put out chances away when controlling the game like we did in the first half hour. Sancho needs to go at defenders and Antony is too left sided and predictable. Thought Shaw had a great game from start to finish.

 

[Mercurial]

The comeback grit was refreshing

 

[Leftback99]

Second best after Kovacic came on but better before that. Simply have to take chances when on top.

 

[Red Dreams]

Casemiro obviously MoTM.
But Dalot came close.

We should have sealed the game with the chances Rashford missed.
Against Spurs too he missed a hatful.
Need a reliable striker.

We are getting to be a darn hard team to beat.

Erik has made his mark.

 

[Von Mistelroum]

Casemiro and Martinez becoming my favourites! Quite like Antony too.

If we could trick any club into offering 40m or so for Rashford we should absolutely do that and buy any actual striker.

 

[Lecland07]

Tough game - there will be some negativity around some players, but this was very cagey. There weren't many chances created in the game and both were pressing quite hard.

I would say it was pretty equal, so a draw is right. Good result. This game isn't going to decide who gets top four.

 

[kps88]

Two teams who desperately need a striker
