I am still bewildered at the strangeness of the match between United and Chelsea yesterday, although I am very happy with the performance and the three points; I can't get to grips with some of the bizarre events. Firstly, Wayne's penalty miss was shocking; despite him unfortunately slipping, it wasn't picture perfect by any means. Furthermore, in the first half a certain Ramires decided to miss an open goal, practically - however all credit goes to Mr de Gea who made an excellent save. And you couldn't expect it to get any worse...could you? Well with Fernando Torres involved I suppose it does. With credit to Ramires, he played a lovely ball to Torres who skilfully rounded the keeper and had a yard between him and the goal...and he missed. On replay, I still can't hide my grin - it was humiliating for the 50 million striker.
On the other hand, 3-1 is a great result for the boys and it was fully deserved. Stand out performers were Jonesy, Nani and de Gea. Stoke are up next in the league...away, it will be tough. We are also playing Leeds in the Carling Cup tomorrow so that will be a good watch - I will fire up the report on Wednesday.
Thanks.
