fletcher played alright. scholes was off and neville was being dicked by malouda, should have subbed him for rafael, at least he has the pace to keep up with him. i can't get why everyone is going on "oh but you guys got a handball goal"what seems more obvious to you? a striker that is one metre in front of the defensive line right in front of the linesman?or a striker who is in the middle of a jumble in the box who charges the ball in the midst of a lot of defenders and manages to contact with his hand.referee got both wrong, but should have easily got the offside right.

I think I am one of Utd's biggest supporters, but the fact is they were NOT the best team on the day.
If you are looking for average performances, in the first half for sure. Neville,Scholes, Fletcher,Park, Valencia and Evra. You cannot expect any team to foot it with Chelsea with so many players being off.
We had no pace and when Narni came on things changed.
He should have started.
