Chelsea dominated

Benching Cristiano Ronaldo turned out to be the best decision Michael Carrick has made in his short tenure. This was the eighth consecutive game Chelsea had failed to beat Manchester United and taking the oily one out meant the visitors simply worked better as a team. While still disjointed, fast vertical play could have opened Chelsea up on more than one occasion but they couldn’t find the right ball or didn’t look for it.
