The Official Manchester United Thread [vol 7]

[NRS]

A draw against an unbeaten Chelsea is not a bad result at all for you. Of course frustrating to lose in last minute or two, but still a good point.

Also some aggro at the end with Jose caused by the Chelsea bench or something? Classy bunch.

Actually they have been - they said it was their fault for getting carried away, and apologised both in the interview (Sarri) and to Jose (both of them). I don't think I have ever seen Jose apologise (just as a person, nothing to do with United)?

[selym]

It's got to be concerning that you couldn't hold on for the win though. Jose could at least close down games, sometimes from the 1st minute.

Gutted. We needed 3 and they were right there. Needed to play ole football in the last few minutes and kill it off. I backed us to win 1-2 at 1-0 down, didn’t cash out as I was confident we’d see it out! Chelsea are a good team but there is nothing to fear in this league. Really gutted we didn’t come away with the 3....30 more seconds. Aarrrghhh!

[Driver101]

I didn't expect Man Utd to get a point today. Must feel disappointing losing a late late goal for the draw.

I'll watch on MOTD later.

Martial sounds as if he's hit a bit of form lately. Is it just because he's getting the chance, or one of these players that peaks just as they are looking for a move?

[Challo]

Gutted not to hold on and get a result today, understand why he made the changes to shut up shop.

Nearly all managers would have done the same.

Glad we showed some fight in the second half and glad Tony got two goals.

[Black can man]

Any thoughts on Jose going all Razor Ramon today ?

U were much better today chaps
I think what was the martial none UTD fans believe he is
A pint at Chelsea is a good point whatever butnit wont help u get where u want to be .

Fair play, I had only heard briefly what happened, but if they have apologised thats at least something. Still a classless thing to do in the first place, but emotions etc & Jose is no angel of course (but suspect he also generally is better behind the scenes).

You been on the sauce lad?

Good to see the players dig in and fight again today. Things are looking up. Disappointing to concede so late on but that’s football and it happens, as we have done so many times!

All in all 3 great results for the two best teams in the League yesterday.

A valuable point, utd really looking good for a very respectable mid-table position now.

9th place is still a very admirable position.

I can’t believe you offer this comedy for free, you should take it up professionally.

You’d soon get used to starving.

I guess it’s hard to just take pleasure in your own team’s success when they’re a nothing club. Plastic and hollowed out. Hard to take satisfaction from that, I suppose.

Genuine question are you looking for an internet fight or getting some kick from posting the same boring st day in day out?

I wasn't going to bite because it's not worth a response, but I do wonder at people's mentality with the "oh so subtle" put downs.

For the record we will be lucky to finish 9th if we play like the first few games and don't start keeping clean sheets. Equally we could finish above yours and you'll look an even bigger plonker Rodney.

I'll give mine although I am not a United fan and certainly no Jose fan

The Chelsea staff member was completely out of order
Sarri has said as much and apologised and acted correctly
Jose was understandably pissed off, and in the heat of that moment I can see why he reacted
Jose apologised for over reacting and didn't do much wrong
Your criticism on the Spurs thread is therefore wrong this time IMO

Sorry.... 10th place is still a very admirable position.

Well there’s a surprise

We don’t know what was said if anything was said.

Do you not think Mr Mourinho should have shown a little more restraint ?

No. The guy abused him as he walked past and made a gesture. Any normal guy would react. Why does the world and his dog have a big chip on their shoulder about jose? Just let him do his job. The Chelsea manager immediately apologised to Jose and made the guy do the same. End of story. Jose was gentlemanly enough to not make a fuss and get the guy in hot water and also apologised for reacting.
