Who played the opening pass for that RvP chance?

Couldn't have been kagawa, he does nothing, moyes is always right!

Thing is with him he always plays pretty well and has a few moments because he's a class player. Just doesn't have confidence because of moyes.
 
You never know, it might turn out that this Olympiacos team is full of future world class players like Porto was.

Genuinely starting to wonder if he atleast half wanted to miss..

The amount of times the Chelsea players just stopped trying for their manager.

I don't like the thought, but it's pretty ridiculous.

A player like RVP doesn't try to miss.

Vindication for Moyesy.

"I think we were unlucky. Van Persie had a great chance at 81 minutes and if he had taken that, we'd be going home with a 2-1 defeat in the bag and a great chance of going through to the next round after a good performance. Wasn't to be."
 
That cross from Smalling, my days...

Stop making excuses, Rooney's comments didn't suggest he was lacking in confidence ahead of the game when he said he wanted to with the competition this year. Players like Valencia, Young and Cleverley aren't good enough and it is as simple as that.

It is evident in the way they were instructed to play. They were asked to sit in their half and stroll around in walking pace.

If those players are so poor, then why play them? Why not continue with Fellaini in the middle? Why not start Januzaj when the next games is 11 days away? Why is Rio starting when it has been evident for the past 3 seasons that he cannot play 2 games in 3 days? Why Kagawa, who has been one of our better players in Europe didn't start? Why couldn't Valencia start at RB and Smalling shifted to the center for Rio?

It's evident that the manager has shot the confidence of these players and made them doubt their own quality. A players plays well and then he disappears for 3-4 games.

I have been one of the ardent supporters of his appointment. But the writing is on the wall that this job is too big for him. His selection and rotation policy have been shockingly bad. And I doubt that he is going to turn it around. He has had his chances but has come up cropper again and again. It's hight time that he is let go.
 
Oh FFS, they even slip to give us a chance of stringing two passes together... then Smalling crosses
 
It's probably better if we don't score... if we do, we'll end up taking a one goal lead and sitting back, ala Sunderland.
 
RVP has been awful all game. Just a minute before missing that sitter he fell on his arse and took 20 seconds just sitting there instead of getting up trying to get the ball back when it was lying on the ground 5 feet away from him. fecking insipid performance from him. Smalling and Valencia have been worse than him but hes been shocking.
 
Moyes has actually become a worse manager since taking iver United. This is theworst display I've ever seen I think.
 
Smalling is not at the required level. Embarrassing night for him.
 
STILL it's about getting it wide. Is the manager brain damaged or something? Really!
 
Can someone explains why Rio (apparently his agent) keeps posting on his FB Timeline like that on a miserable night like this???
