I knew the match wouldn’t be easy for Chelsea, even as Manchester United's performances have been so poor. It’s not always easy whenever Manchester United are playing against Chelsea, and I knew today's match wasn’t also going to be easy. I was expecting a draw or win from Chelsea, and the match ended as a draw, which is not really a bad one for Chelsea, at least they were able to get a point in the match, and they are currently in 4th position, they are currently ahead of Arsenal, which is just what I want to see Grin

.

A duel between these two is one that you wouldn’t expect to be easy, given the rivalry between them both and even its fans. It was at Old Trafford even, you’ve got to expect some aggression from Manchester United and I can say Chelsea did the much they could but, the result isn’t satisfactory.
Had to go visit the league table and boy, Chelsea is ahead of Arsenal, could they hold that up, I’m not so sure. Nottingham Forest in 3rd place on the league table, now that’s surprising. They’ve improved greatly and with the lots of goals from Chris Wood, capping their games with a 3 point, you would expect them to be better positioned but 3rd place, I wouldn’t have hoped.

The performance was very okay from United own reasoning, barely have they performed this good in a long time. Meeting with their rivals brough out so much potentials in the manner at which they played today on the pitch. The intern coach (Ruud van Nistelrooy) has influenced the team with a good defensive mindset, despite creating fewer goal scoring opportunities but overall it was a great play from the United players. On the other hand, Chelsea tried but they were really poor conserving the opportunities they had, Enzo missed what should have given them the exact 3 points and victory shutting down the long unbeaten United there in Old Trafford.
