What we witnessed yesterday was a bit more like the Manchester United we know and love.
Good passing game, totally outclassing Chelsea, before even Mikel was sent off, they were pinned back in their own half for most of the game.
The goal by Tevez was a real good one, just nipping in front of Cech and sneaking it past him at the last minute, pure class.
Old Trafford went wild and the little man got that much needed first goal, here’s to many many more Mr Tevez and I think he just got a little bit closer to the fans hearts, especially scoring against the rent boys.
It was kind of ironic really because the advertising boards just flashed up Tevez to score the next goal 6/1 and bang, in it went lol (you got that one right, Bet Fred).
Personally I didnt think it was going to be a classic game but I was proved wrong and thankfully so, just hope I am always wrong if we can score like that again.
Well we all know, how close previous encounters with Chelsea have gone, usually alot closer and very little to choose from either side.
Well Fergie you won that mind game, nice one.
The second goal was just what was needed, penalty or not, it was just what Old Trafford wanted, the fans needed something to gloat about again, hey lets face it, moral is well and truly lifted again.
Louis Saha stepped up,after not long coming on and woo hoo, we are 2-0 up and not long to play.
All in all a much better performance from United, yeah okay Chelsea were missing Lampard and Drogba but I am not sure they would have made much more of a difference anyway yesterday.
The argument might continue about whether Mikel should have got a red card or not, (who cares we dont lol) either way Chelsea would have been down to 10 men anyway, cos you can certainly bet if the ref hadn’t already sent him off and possibly making the wrong decision, Joe Cole would have gone anyway for the two footed challenge afterwards.
The effect of Mourinho leaving/sacked whatever, certainly has had an effect on Chelsea but they will bounce back, well if they have the same bounceback ability United have, so dont write them off just yet.
The only good thing I saw about Chelsea yesterday was the fans and their banner, which was a nice touch and a dig at the Chelsea management, it said “Jose Mourinho, simply the best”.
But I hate to say it Chelsea, our banner was alot better than yours lol but aren’t they always, me biased nooooooo lol.
It took me til about 12 midnight to get home again afterwards but worth every minute of the journey.
Our fans can stand up with pride today, not just from the win but because, they sang their hearts out and really got behind the boys, which helped make the atmosphere a really good one and it was equally as nice to walk back to the car and see lots of happy and smiling fans, even though it was raining.
And finally, maybe just maybe we shut up a few critics with yesterday’s result as well, showing that if you write us off we come back and bite you in the ass.
COME ON YOU REDS.
