    Doesnt sound like you were. "dominant display"

    Chelsea may have generated more attempts, yet we were able to make the most of our chances when we had them. Not only that, but we edged Chelsea on possession as well, highlighting the sides ability to retain possession of the ball.

    Still wasnt a dominant display by any means.

    Fuck this hate for Fletcher and Carrick.

    Yeah, Fletcher was fucking wank last season, but Carrick (in the latter part) of the season, was good in the middle of the park with Giggs.


    I like him, dont get me wrong. I'd rather have him in the middle than Fletch, but hes so frustrating at times.

    I'd be pissed off if we were actually playing well at that point, but we weren't.

    Knowing Carrick he'd have turned forward and given it away. Hide

    I agree, however the play produced by the team itself has also been on another planet. I would go as far to say that it nearly matches that of FC Barcelona at this time.

    It's ridiculous to criticise Carrick for that, all he was doing was keeping hold of possession while we held a 2 goal advantage late in the game.

    Carrick played it safe. Which is a good thing because if he lost the ball they could'v had a chance to score and he'd be slated even more.

    Obivously, but by the looks of the gif Mata is the only one who looked interested in chasing the ball, and he was coming from behind. Im sure there would have been an option for Carrick to pass to as he turned.
