I completely agree with you

Just pointing out his desperate actions

We really need a statement this week transfers wise, will set us up perfectly for the rest of the season

Wasn't even angered by that, knew he'd do it.

Bid for Bale???

S2C Moyes lowering himself to the level of red @rmy.

Moyes choice of words were apt. "we're always looking".

indeed we £#%&!ing are.

can't tell if mourinho bottled it or if that was a rather pointed way of indicating that he isn't happy with their squad. very disjointed display from them, sloppy in possession and i got the impression a few of the players didn't have much awareness of what their role was.

a frustrating result, as others have said there was a win there for united but we didn't do enough. final ball was a let down too often and poor finishing elsewhere.

Screech more like.

Exactly the kind of player whose deft skill and flair would create a goal in this kind of game

ive just washed it off

pleased for mj, tbh. aside from that, what a load of boring £#%&!ing £#%&!.

disappointed we didn't go for it, the onus was on us. giggs instead of kagawa?

special mention to danny "50p head" welbeck :shakehead:

BBC lol

In fairness I think he was knocked off balance by Ramires

His earlier miss was his own fault at not getting the ball out of his feet

so much for mourinho wiping the floor with united and exerting his dominance over english football

it's always disappointing to drop points but it was far from a disaster of a performance by us. we faced the seemingly common problem of looking a bit unsure in the final third. we were easily the better side, chelsea clearly came with the intention of drawing. not the best game robin's had but there's only so much he can do against a bunch of cloggers.

reminded me of that 0-0 against the berts a couple of years ago

Yup - and that didn't turn out so badly for us in the end

Get something at Anfailed, and it is a satisfactory start.

Thought it was a solid performance . Moyes seemed in control . Rooney excellent. Add a fit nani Rafael would be good. Just love to add a playmaker . Don't object to the Everton boys added to the squad .
