Resting Mata midweek might have been a stroke of genius apparently.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Speaking of Hazard, it's a shame that Kagawa has been injured. The two of them were compared a lot after their transfers. It'll be interesting to see which one works out for the best.
A draw against City and one of their London rivals isn't the end of the world. He has already rested Mata, Mikel and Oscar, who all were starting to look knackered by playing non-stop. I don't really know what really is your gripe?
Also, he was brought in to secure CL football for next season so they can buy themselves a top class manager and a few players in the summer. He is going to do exactly the same. He is not there to win any titles.
That he's only been in charge of two games and this one isn't over and yet you can already claim his rotation policy has worked or is working when he's only been in charge of two and a half games.
This is embarrassing. Atkinson is just blowing any time Cech looks dodgy
Yet people can full on get DDG in a head lock and still play on
Cahill's taken lessons from the big man.
Isn't that really reckless play against Cahill? He was first to the ball though.
Nothing wrong with what Cahill or Cole did. But fact is Cole didnt get the ball and caught the man, its a foul like any other. Thats all
West Ham are a different team this half. Entertaining game
West Ham piling on the pressure
West Ham dominating now
"Call him whatever you want but Rafa is doing a good job rotating the squad. The way DiMatteo was going, he would have run the attacking players to the ground by the time the new year arrived."
What was so "conclusive" in that?
That means Chelsea will get a second if they keep spurring chances.
So why isnt Hazard playing?
Is that you saying he's been shit this game?
1-1, Cole!
Yes!!
1-1
Suck a fat one Rafa you cnut
1-1
Suck a fat one Rafa you cnut
Yes, 1-1. I expected it to be disallowed.
Carlton Cole scores against is old team.Fact.
Reminded me of Cole v Evans a couple of seasons ago that goal.
That was well a foul too.Nice to see West ham equalise. Thought it was a foul at first, but not so much on the second viewing
Torres
Torres just can't score.Torres misses.
Torres
The first correct thing Alan Smith has said all season. Was more of a foul than the Collins one earlier that led to a disallowed goal
Rafa is rotating the squad. Not quite sure about the good job bit.
Noble could have been off, going by recent red cards shown.
fecking hell
Mata
Mata
Mata is so good at set pieces.
Mata free kicks, always dangerous!
Hit the post from the FK. Chelsea have gone close twice now already since West ham scored
If Chelsea drop points again i'd love to see how long it takes before Roman is on his back. The fans already hate him so it could be the shortest spell as Chelsea manager of the bunch.
Jaskelainens goalframe is still shaking
A good game has sprung up from nowhwere.
Great freekick from Mata off the post. Must be one of the top freekick takers in the league now
That Diame is a player. Impressed me lots this season.
