well that's how most games between good technical teams go - you need to pass your way into the net but that doesn't work when all 10 players from the opposing team are in their third

generally everyone plays counterattacking football these days which isn't great to watch, really


What. YOu are mental. COunter attacking football ie the way that RM and Bayern play is awesome.


except they play it vs teams with awful defenses while everyone in the PL just shuts up shop (see: villa in mid-week)

Who can watch a game of footie and stay neutral?

Its ok to watch good organized defensive games, but I was kinda disappointed with the offence of Chelsea. So direct even though they have so many great passing players! Should trust their passing game more even if they play mainly for a draw. Good performance though, and a point at Old Trafford is a good point!

Depressed as a united fan. We buy a player capable of making short incisive passes then stuff him on the bench in favor of English players who work hard.

Bleh.

Wow, I thought the rebels in Syria had it hard, but being a Manchester United fan is true suffering.

Pretty true, i wanted the same. It just felt like they had a bit of a leash/lead on them indeed. I hope they just did that because they only early in the season haven't got the full team Mourinho wants etc. And likes of Hazard not 100% nor Mata etc.

Oh well, hopefully we try and take our game to Bayern on friday

Uhh Real and Bayern dont play counter attacking football.. They are just very good at it when the opportunity presents itself, which is often enough, especially when you have the pace they do upfront, its a pretty straightforward correlation..

Thats alot different from playing a style that relies inherently on the counter. Both RM and Munich can pass your socks off when they are playing well.

Both teams were pretty conservative the 20 odd minutes I was watching. Its all very nice that you have players tracking back and all but you dont score goals tracking back..

iirc Chelsea under Mourinho once had the best defensive record in the league's history, it's hardly surprising he goes for safety first at Old Trafford.
