Any reports from today's game? I don't have the full sky sports package.
Be doing well to get anything by tomorrow morning, I think the Manchester United supporters are still asleep after it

Really poor game, Chelsea seemed happy to leave with the 0-0 and Utd didn't exactly go out all guns blazing. Rashford had a 1 v 1 saved in the first half and bar a couple of long range saves from Mendy I'm struggling to think of any chances?

Far from a classic game, Lampard known for open expansive football set Chelsea up very defensive today and he had his new signings keeper Mendy and Silva to thank for keeping a clean sheet. Oles tactic of finishing the game with a stronger team didn't work and bringing Maguire straight back into the team and dropping Tuanzebe after a fine display against PSG almost backfired as another ref would have given a penalty for a clumsy tangle in the box.

Cavani looked lively when introduced and he might get his first start against the German league leaders next.

Definite penalty. Maguire has obviously been watching Chris Smalling's 'How To Defend A Corner' YouTube video.

There is a strange acceptance of holding by defenders at corners. Show me a corner that some kind of infringement doesn't take place, yet if you graze someones shin and they go down as if shot it's a peno

I think both managers went out not to lose that game and move on. Suspect privately they'd have taken 0-0 at the outset and that's what happened. United had the better of what few chances there were but got away with a penalty concession by Maguire. Probably finished the game stronger...I felt United were going to nick it at the end.

Never understood the holding at corners craic, if it happened out the field it would be a free kick therefore any holding or grabbing should be a penalty if it happens in the box.

Another decent first half against a good Leipzig team. Chances at a premium though. Greenwood took his goal well.

The new player in midfield is good with the ball at his feet...Pogba with an assist borderline offside and seen some of them go other way!

Can't see it being one nil though! They are decent

Brian Kerr is trying to give United penalties glad hes not the ref. Van De Beek stood on the ball and fell over.

Not doing so badly in the group of death so far. Outstanding result against the German league leaders and last seasons CL semi finalists whom are managed by one of the best young managers in Europe.

Ole got it all spot on tonight, starting team, tactics, subs brought on, Rashford off the bench to score a hat trick against Upamecano was very impressive.

Rashford is some pup. 🔥

Impressive performance. Deserved scoreline. Soaked up the pressure from Leipzig and made it count at the other end. Can't fault any of them. Pity they're so bloody frustratingly inconsistent though!
