You knew that Man U was going to put the ball in the net. The Chelsea fans may not have a lot to like but from a neutral fans point of view what a game!

The ref and lino totally fell asleep. the Lino claimed that Rooney didn't tell him he was taking a short'un. Don't remember ever having to tell the lino to pay attention because the kick was taken. Pathetic. THIS is why the respect campaign falls apart. they can't get the simple ones right. Simple reason why Rooney want booked for his goal protests: he was right.

First of Chelsea sucks. They will never, on this planet anyway, reach the pinnacles my Man. Utd. have. Just look at our trophy cabinet, it speaks for our self. During the game, the so called "unbeatables" got a new hole torn in them. Great news. Terry was playing his usual dirty football. The defense went to sleep, and Drogba and Anelka, well werent there at all. United destroyes them, and if the pastry man Rafa was watching he will choke on his words, and we WILL hoist the title again in May. Liverpool keep in dreaming and the KOP, well we'll just keep singing "you're gonna will $%^* all." Cheers! Chelsea= West London Pretenders. First of Chelsea sucks.

Can I just ask what makes John Terry 'Brave' for blocking shots headed goalward?
Isn't it a defender's job to block shots, help his team by defending shots, etc.?
Or is it that he raised his hands to block a shot from Fletcher?

It would have been 4-0 or 5-0 had Ronaldo's wrongly-ruled offside goal stood, and the penalties rightly awarded against Carvalho and Terry's raised arm (although that one isn't as clear cut as Carvalho's rugby tackle).

I think I saw it on Sky Sports News while interviewing Ryan Giggs. With the respect campaign Rooney should of been booked. No question about that. At least he has toned it down some over the years with United. One replay I saw did show it. I think I saw it on Sky Sports News while interviewing Ryan Giggs.
