Against the run of play, an “AFFRONT”...dearie me. Two, what we call in the Colonies, breakaways, another mini-break where Daniel James was sent in behind Chelsea’s offensive defense, and a CLEAR PK. What run of play were they watching. Chelsea did hit the woodwork twice, once the side post, another the crossbar; DeGea did have a busy afternoon, but neither did Chelsea have clear breaks as United did, they were typically hurried shots in crowd, fine shots obviously, almost scores, but inches are the 1% difference between average players and good players. By contrast the woodwork could not have helped Chelsea’s goalkeeper, United had acres of space to shoot at.
Marcus Rashford is a fucking gazelle, a big, strong, long-strider; he reminds me much of a young Yaya Toure. When Yaya got a ball in midfield he just went gamboling past the defenders who could never catch him or have the strength to move him off the ball if they were in path. Rashford did that today.
What of the “run of play” of Chelsea’s defense, aficionados? It was shambolic. They play defense like that they won’t win a match. Give ‘em two today for argument. They still would have been routed 4-2. Dearie me.
