Manchester United vs. Chelsea
There is an apparent inevitability that Manchester United will be
shamed at Old Trafford (not for first time in the past year) in Sunday's match against Chelsea. Things could indeed get ugly, for the bigger the club, the harder they fall. It comes down to just how cruel Jose Mourinho wants to be -- certainly, 2014's appetite for public humiliation remains insatiable.
Was Manchester United's 2-2 draw at West Brom really their best performance of the season?
By scoring six in the Champions League during midweek, Chelsea reiterated they are the playground bully that is not only stronger but also smarter than its peers. United, meanwhile, do not seem capable of putting up much of a defence. As was anticipated, the summer recruitment drive has left their squad imbalanced, no matter manager Louis van Gaal's tweaking.
West Bromwich Albion putting two past them on Monday quickened the Red Devils' heart rate, evoking "the fear" ahead of facing the league leaders, then the holders Manchester City. In words that are already infamous, Van Gaal said after the 2-2 draw at The Hawthorns: "I'm disappointed because we played our best match of the season and the result is not good enough." What if former boss David Moyes had said that?
