4-0 against a team parking the bus. Pretty good effort. All 3 of Kagawa's goals were well constructed. Nice to see him get a hat-trick. Hopefully will prove a catalyst for him to finally settle in as an important cog in our machine. Rooney's goal was a sublime strike. I just hope he hasn't wasted it in a game that was already won when we might need something similar on Wednesday morning.

What a shit, shit performance against Chel$ki. Obviously thought we'd done enough at 2-0. Time for the hairdryer treatment.

To be fair i think we looked like we ran out of energy. It was a very draining week emotionally and physically for the team.

I'm glad it was an FA cup game, now we have a week to sort sh*t out and go win the double.


On a slightly OT topic, we could have 4 north west teams in the semis yet both games have to be at Wembley. Absolutely stupid. Imagine Wigan vs Blackburn at Wembley FFS. Stupid decision and devalues the final. But i digress. :)

Chant of the day from the Chelsea fans to the ManU fans - "We'll race you back to London"

:lol:

Especially as Fulham sang it first, a long time ago... ;-)

Credit where credit's due then

Would of been an empty motorway, Chelsea had to send 3,500 tickets back as they are such a big club they couldn't fill their little bit of the ground... :D

No doubt the motorway will be just as empty after the replay...

Why?

The only reason is you have a little stadium.

Unless you think the Chelsea support is in anyway comparable to Uniteds? Yes United have more fans in London than Chelsea, but that is because Chelsea fans come from the home counties and are wannabe cockneys.

Fact is though, Manchester is red.

What a shit performance. Bossed the ball in midfield, especially in the first half, but could barely manufacture a shot. Our goal scoring form has dropped right off. As has RVP's personal form. Thank f**k we have such a large lead in the league.

Well at least we may start playing again now.

Giggs should never play 90 mins in central mid again. If that is all we have got for the big game then we need to use some of this monster sponsorship deal to buy a new midfielder.

Don't know who. Someone to play along side Carrick. An Alonso (obviously won't be him) type player who can help cover the defence but can pass and take pressure of Carrick.

Fairly lacklustre performance, but the gulf in class was glaringly obvious. We didn't need to shift out of first gear, Stoke are that ordinary. Still annoyed we've lost our goal scoring ability from early in the season. Should have put the foot down and put 5 or 6 past them.

We had Giggs in mid against city and now Rooney vs Stoke,

FFS we need to buy Carrick a world class partner in the summer.


on the game, big win that. It will settle a few nerves.

Carrick has been tremendous this season. Him and RVP have been the keys. You're right though. We need another top class mid - a Ronaldo, a Keane, a Beckham, a younger Scholes or Giggs.
