    WTF is Cech on about, what a bitter ****. What he said in the build up to the game was ******* ridiculous aswell.

    Great ******* result. Rooney was immense...again. Valencia was very good at rb as well.

    Respect to Cech there on the penalty. The interviewer is prodding at the fact that it was a wrong decision.

    Drogba being taken off proves that something is not quite right in the Chelsea camp. Abramovich seems to have forced Torres on Ancelotti, just like he did with Shevchenko.

    I seriously nearly came when Valencia & Nani broke on the same wing together, what a ******* sight.

    Very impressed with Valencia when he moved to right back made a good few tackles.

    Did well.

    Confident of a semi final now though. Really can't see Chelsea scoring two against us, especially if it's the same defence as tonight. We'll score aswell.

    They will push for an away goal, we will counter, we will **** them in the ass.

    Yep, stupid decision. Drogba was excellent for Chelsea.

    I'm at an Irish pub right now and Chelsea fans were hounding me after the game over the penalty appeals and my celebrations...**** off you blues you've had more than your share of bad calls in your favour. United!

    I thought moving Toni V to right back killed our momentum. He got forward once after being moved back and we suffered because of it. He did a decent job but the overall performance of the team suffered imo.

    I was surprised by how little of the ball Nani saw tbh, I don't think we held up the ball very well save for a couple of times. I was hoping Berbatov would have been able to do it but he wasn't very effectual either, was a very nervy last 10 minutes.

    Yeah agreed. He was brought on to hold the ball up, but we barely got it to him and so he was pretty ineffectual.

    I agree..it was a shockingly bad game..I expected a higher tempo and more quality. Add Valencia to that list though..the guy was ******* immense..MOTM for me for so many vital blocks..he didn't get a foot wrong and Chelsea had no space down the left

    I loved the Rio interview when he was asked about the not given penalty. 'They have rode their luck a few times over the years here, so it's about time we got some luck here'. Brilliant!

    Great to see him back in the starting line up. Thought he had a good game considering he was out for two months. Hopefully he stays fit for the rest of the season now.

    Loved Rio giving Torres a piece of his mind twice. The bar I was in erupted both times.

    As for the penalty, yeah it was a penalty, and two wrongs don't make a right but it really does feel like poetic justice.
