too bad Greenwood doesn't start and Gomes didn't make the bench, but Matic and Mata not starting and Tuanzebe over Smalling/Jones is good enough for me.

undeserved lead, but I'll take it. Extremely clumsy by Zouma, great penalty by Rashford.

Zouma has had a shocking half. Otherwise Chelsea looking better, United don't appear very structued.

Pretty quick collapse by Chelsea.

have to feel for Chelsea, that's not reflective of the game at all.


brilliant by Maguire ahead of the second goal and Pogbas pass for the third was outstanding.

#LampardOut trending lol. Poor guy, they've looked good for the most part, just lacking in the final third.

Always good to see Chelsea get a nice beatdown, deserved or not.

poor Frank is going to be under pressure quickly. Absurd result, Chelsea were not bad at all.

These plastic Chelsea supporters are shameful. How many managers do we need to burn through before we actually back one of them.

Chelsea was the better team in the first 60. Zouma had a horrid game and the team buckled pretty quickly after the second goal.

I have zero expectations of this team this year yet I am happy with the first 60.

Just me or does Shaw look like he's carrying a few extra lbs?

well, I'll take it. Absurd result but all 3 of Maguire, AWB and James had excellent debuts and the fact that both Martial and Rashford score in the first game is pretty important as well. Good result to take off pressure early from Ole and the young team (youngest starting XI this weekend).

Haha doesn’t help the narrative, when we got new pundit Mourinho in our ear.

I don't see it happening unless Lampard resigns. For all that Frank has done for the club as a player they need to give him the season. In my opinion of course.

Chelsea's board rarely does the right thing though lol.

As much as watching Chelsea suck is fun, we do have to remember that they're under a Transfer Ban, Lampard will likely get this season unless they flounder against lesser opposition.

Also missing Hudson-Odoi and RLC to injury as well. Once they are back then we can see what young players we have and hopefully spend some of that Hazard money after the transfer ban.

which, in a weird way, could actually benefit them in the long run. They have some fine talents like Mount, Tomori and Abraham that probably wouldn't get a chance without the transfer ban, and they could actually do really well for them. Hudson-Odoi too once he's healthy again.
