Chelsea 2 - 0 Man Utd
Hasselbaink (22); Melchiot (72)

Chelsea: Ed De Goey; Celestine Babayaro, Mario Melchiot, Frank Leboeuf, Marcel Desailly, Dennis Wise, Roberto Di Matteo, (Morris, 70) Mario Stanic, Gus Poyet, (Le Saux, 76) Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Gianfranco Zola (Gudjohnsen, 72).
Subs not used: Ambrosetti, Flo, Lambourde, Cudicini

Man Utd: Fabian Barthez; Gary Neville, Denis Irwin, Mikael Silvestre, (Stam, 18), Ronny Johnsen, Roy Keane, Paul Scholes David Beckham, Ryan Giggs (Fortune, 77), Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, (Cole, 69) Teddy Sheringham (Yorke (69).
Subs not used: Van Der Gouw, Neville P, Butt.

Interesting to see that Melchiot and Johnsen both started and that Le Saux was used as a sub in midfield.

Oh, and United lost and Ferguson blamed the ref for Keane being sent off for the 7th time while at United!

Thanks Roo. It's nice to see some popular cheapies recovering nicely from injuries and rounding into form. On the downside Barthez hasn't looked like the top goalie he is; could the Schmeichel "curse" (victims Taigi, Bosnich) get him too? Then again, Man U's poor performance at the recent Charity Shields hasn't been any indicator of performance during the season.

I can't drop LeSaux... it's not like he'll lose any money...

Glad I got Melchiot... Also nice to see my keeper shut out a traditionally high scoring team.

Why'd they take Giggs out?

-Blue Hen- Nothing to worry about the Giggs situation, I believe they just wanted to throw in a couple of guys who are not going to see much PT once the premiership begins.
