Hazard was the man, which makes me wonder why he wasn't starting to begin with? It just doesn't make sense.


Yea, I mean of course it's obviously impossible to know what would have happened but it was pissing me off they were acting like bringing him on was some master stroke from Benitez and the Chelsea fans were morons for questioning him.

To me, if anything, it proved how ridiculous it was to have him on the bench to start the game. Also, if Terry and Ivan are in instead of Luiz the odds that goal from Rooney gets through the box untouched is about .01% chance. Also, it's highly doubtful either of them would have forced Cech to make his best save of the match unlike Luiz.

I would argue that United scoring 2 quick goals may have saved the Blues. Rafa was forced to bring on Hazard when he did. If the score was closer he probably would have brought him on in like the 80' as a part of his "squad management"
