I thought Torres played really well on the front line today. Yes he had few 'tragic' misses, but without him, the forward could not produce any decent chance at all, despite Ramires shot on goal.

I was mesmerized by his lethal shot and powerful running. It's obvious that he's still rusty, but yet tonight, he shows that form is temporary and class ....is permanent

You're right, Rooney have Gk to beat while Torres facing empty goal, stupid argument really

When i actually processed that miss, my reaction was exactly static. For 2 whole minutes i was just baffled.

got video of the miss? im pretty curious since alot of people claim it is the miss of the season (despite only 5 games in).

haih..manu fans has made the joke about torres,

the positive side of the game as 2nd half is much better without lampard. the game was good with both end missing those chances, we are just not there yet, we doesnt have a good finishing, but we did give them a fight

imo we can't really put both situation into comparison.

1.Rooney is taking penalty kick with his right, strongest leg, ball stay still, one on one with keeper

2.Torres is making a shot while running, with his weaker leg, ball moving fast, and with no keeper (recovering fast though)

It's both a bad bad miss. that's all we can put into perspective. Comparing both is kinda lame imo

To people who criticize Lukaku. He's only played for like 20 minutes. And he's 18. And he's new to Chelsea. Please understand he's no Drogba YET!

by right the game shud ended man 4-3 chelsea.....(after excluding smalling's offside goal)
ramires is nervous!...at least allow sturridge to score the goal!....
our defending is really sucks....when ever manu attack...we are nervous...! damn why terry still on field!....shud gave luiz.....
torress...how much bigger the goal size u need? that is unacceptable miss!! even 5 yr old kid can finished that off!
lukaku was poor...
i expect malouda instead of mikel....a bad sub by AVB.....
now i miss drogba....
and cech u have the height cant you save nani's long range...since u are not under pressure circumstances...!

i would say overall were unlucky, and same time just a average game!...the previous match against leverkusen is still the best for the moment!...

despite the lost, i don't feel sad at all. Torres is believe is back !

After this game, there are plenty of positives from our team....we created a lot of chances but we failed to take them...consider this how many teams can go to OT and play like we did today....the stats are clearly on our side but in the end United takes their chances and they deserved the win...

and also after this game, i don't see lampard as regular starter anymore....he clearly cannot catch and match the speed of the match....it is an insult to lampard by subs him off straight after the half time.....it also shows that AVB was brave enough to drop big name.....

well for Torres, really feel for him, after such a wonderful goal then he produces 1 of the miss of the season...but overall i feel satisfied for his performance.....a glimpse of an in-form Torres we used to see....

fairly said!...i hope rooney's miss is terry's end of CL cursed!

with 50 GBP price tag, once a lethal and feared striker in EPL and as a striker for the Champion of World Cup 2010, that is a miss of the season.

i really hope he learns his lesson today, he need something to work on... anything to make him scores again.

+1

sorry but when was the last time u give a fair comment to the team? are u really the blues

Even Andy Carroll can score that

That.

Decisions and lady luck smiled upon us this time. I thought Chelsea played very well at times. It was pretty even and very entertaining.

A lil bit of mindfucuk with all the misses but I enjoyed watching the match. End to end stuff, misses, goals and on field dramas.

BTW, I do think that most of you need to shrug off Torres' price tag. He needs time. Don't be a bunch of mofos like we have in MUST. Can't even comprehend simple things.
