Recurring issue for United crops up again
It’s another cutback goal conceded by Manchester United, albeit one that owed a stroke of unfortunate luck to a deflection.
Follow the link below for a piece we did in January covering United’s vulnerability to these kinds of moves.

Big win coming?
10′ Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United
That was Chelsea’s fastest Premier League goal against Manchester United since a first-minute goal by Spanish winger Pedro on October 23, 2016.
They won that game 4-0.

United undone by poor defending
That was a horrible goal for United to concede. Unintentional flicks, deflections, and balls through legs. So slack. Too many goals conceded through cutbacks.

Nightmare start for United
A nightmare start for United in what had been a frantic four minutes.
Kobbie Mainoo gave the ball away just inside the away side’s half, which eventually led to Gallagher opening the scoring for Chelsea.
Even though the ball went through Casemiro’s legs on its way in, there is an argument that Andre Onana, who got a hand to the strike, should be doing better.

End-to-end action
End-to-end action

The opening minutes have been every bit as wide open as this match was billed to be.
In between bouts of frantic defending on the edge of their own box, Chelsea have lifted the volume of Stamford Bridge with a well-worked goal that exploited a startlingly open United flank.
But there are near-constant reminders from both teams that the scoring is unlikely to end there.

How Gallagher stunned United early on
5′ Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United
I did question why Dalot was on the left and not Wan-Bissaka after they played that way against Brentford – and that switch has indirectly led to the goal. Dalot came infield, Mainoo lost it, and the full-back was miles out of position.
Chelsea played it down the right flank to the onrushing full-back Malo Gusto, who crossed low back towards the penalty spot. It took a nick off Raphael Varane’s heel, and Dalot missed it with a casual back-flick attempted clearance.
Gallagher kept his head over the ball and kept the shot low. It went through Casemiro’s legs but it was far from being right in the bottom corner.
Indeed, United goalkeeper Andre Onana was very close to it and the ball squirmed under his hand. Was he unsighted? It looked like he could have done better there.

GOAL! Chelsea lead already – and it’s come via Conor Gallagher!
4′ Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United
Chelsea are ahead inside four minutes! What a start for the hosts, what a nightmare for Manchester United.
Diogo Dalot comes inside, Kobbie Mainoo loses it, Malo Gusto crosses and Conor Gallagher sweeps it in.

Garnacho gets in already
2′ Chelsea 0-0 Manchester United
Already quite end-to-end, this game.
Chelsea attack but when it’s cleared, Alejandro Garnacho suddenly has 40 yards of space in front of him.
Malo Gusto is jogging 40 yards behind him. Not encouraging signs.

Caicedo with an important block!
1′ Chelsea 0-0 Manchester United
Interesting that this is the most drawn fixture in the history of the Premier League. Also interesting that it’s Diogo Dalot, not Aaron Wan-Bissaka, at left-back for United.
And Wan-Bissaka bursts down the right to help create a very early chance, laying it back to Antony who shoots… but it’s well blocked twice by Moises Caicedo.

Key battles
Aaron Wan-Bissaka vs Cole Palmer: The United right-back, playing out of position on the left, is opposite Palmer, Chelsea’s best player. Can he shackle him?
Casemiro vs Conor Gallagher: Conor Gallagher, in the No 10 role for Chelsea, will look to press Brazilian veteran Casemiro, who is not as physically mobile.
Any others you’re looking forward to?

Rare continuity for Chelsea
Rare continuity for Chelsea

At Stamford Bridge tonight we have that rarest of creatures this season: an unchanged Chelsea starting XI. Such continuity looked impossible when Malo Gusto limped off in the closing stages of Saturday’s draw with Burnley, but the full-back has made a lightning-quick recovery at Cobham.
Adding to the good news for Mauricio Pochettino are the returns of Carney Chukwuemeka and Trevoh Chalobah to the bench alongside Thiago Silva, who remains out of favour.

Big call by Ten Hag to bench Rashford
Big call by Ten Hag to bench Rashford

Erik ten Hag has made a bold call dropping Marcus Rashford to the bench. While the forward’s form does not necessarily warrant a spot in the starting XI, the United manager will know the impact his omission will have when it comes to generating headlines.
It is now up to Antony to ensure Ten Hag isn’t left ruing the decision to leave the England international out.
Harry Maguire’s return to the team is important and should add stability to the back four. And in Scott McTominay, Ten Hag has a player capable of popping up with a goal that he can bring off the bench should it be a close encounter.

Ten Hag: This is a huge opportunity
Ten Hag: This is a huge opportunity

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag, speaking to TNT Sports about his team tonight, said: “We have two big games in three days, we need everyone. We need the bench and lately we have had a strong bench.
“It is a huge impact and it is a good impact to have Rashford on the bench. (Mount) is not ready for a start, we will bring him on carefully. We want to avoid another injury so we have to build up his game minutes.”
On Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire starting, he added: “It would have been an headache if they wouldn’t have been fit. We have a lack of fit defenders so it’s a relief they are available and fit. Jonny Evans didn’t train a lot but the others did.
“If we want to qualify for the Champions League, this is a huge opportunity.”

Liverpool are 1-0 up at Anfield and it’s via Darwin Nunez.
More precisely, Darwin Nunez’ bum.
Sheffield United goalkeeper Ivo Grbic took far too long to clear and kicked it off Nunez’ backside and in.
Big implications in the title race!
