Match Reaction vs Chelsea (FA Cup, neutral)

[Letters]

We should have wrapped that game up in the first half. We had the best chances. Welbeck really pissed me off today. Useless. Was happy to see Giroud come on. What a cameo.

Holding, Monreal and Captain Merts were great. Sanchez had a good first half and so did Ozil but it looks like Sanchez picked up an injury from the second half.

I thought Welbeck did well today. Not clinical but that's not news. He worked hard today and generally thought he played well.

Great match. Thought we'd scored too early worried that they would wake up and take us to the cleaners. Our guys gave a great performance.

And Costa is a nasty cheating c**t, Why can't he get the cards he deserves?

Really loved the ref sending moses off, what a cheating cunt that chav is.

Merts this season: 127 minutes = 1 trophy

Spud entire squad: 47880 minutes = 0 trophies

You realise, that's what should have happened to Rooney when he cheated to end our winning streak. Ref's change history. Today the ref decided to apply the rules, in that instance at least. It makes a huge difference to the outcome. Commentators were calling for technology after the Alexis goal. Oh yes please! We'd have 12-15 points more per season.

He's a good athlete. I hear that sentiment a lot. He's not a good footballer. Besides missing chances, I just watched some of his runs and was left baffled by his decision making. Going near post instead of back post, late to make a run, there was one moment on a break Alexis lost his cool with Danny for making the wrong run. He doesn't understand how to play as a striker and in seconds of being on the pitch, Bif made the right run and delivered the perfect pass. I can't stand Giroud, but he at least knows the basics.
