We have to view this as a huge missed opportunity. I think anybody who is honest was not confident before the game and even less so when the teams were announced. How wrong we were. The build up for our goal was first class but it is a damn shame that with a squillion pounds worth of strikers we only had one bullet in the chamber. Chelsea came back as Chelsea do and we looked a little out muscled in the second half, is Rio our biggest tough guy at the moment? It is hard not to think that with either Vidic or VDS on the field we might have defended better for their equaliser. This is far from a tragedy, but we should have won. Bringing on O’Shea was the move that lost us the points. No offence John.
It should have been Tevez for Berbatov who disappeared in the second half. Fergie won’t put up with anyone who doesn’t graft – look at how Rooney kept going throughout. OK he gave away a stupid free kick for the equalizer but what a grafter!
