Manchester United – Wayne Rooney Isn’t Going so Soon
Maybe there’s more than some truth to the rumors that Manchester United want to really sell Wayne Rooney this time; that Alex Ferguson has had enough from his weight going up and down, from his fitness and attitude problems. Slight glitch in the system – Maybe no one wants him, or at least to pay for him.

Chelsea FC – Demba Ba Rises Above Managerial Hate
There’s nothing Rafa Benitez can do to end the hate and protest directed at him (for fear of the owner) but win a league title or the Champions League, but that won’t happen this season. All he can do is win matches and finish in the top 4, and with Demba Ba scoring again, that shouldn’t be too difficult of a task to accomplish.

Chelsea FC – Rafa Benitez Has Had Enough
There’s nothing like waiting for a win to get back at the fans and at your bosses. Rafa Benitez has seen nothing but disrespect from everyone since taking the Chelsea job, knowing all too well it wasn’t going to last very long.

Chelsea FC – Eden Hazard Shines Again While Fernando Torres Keep Missing
There’s a good chance that if it was up to Fernando Torres, Chelsea would have been still looking for that equalizing goal. Instead, in a performance filled with chances but a lot of disappointing and bad football from the European champions, it was Eden Hazard, coming off the bench, that became the hero of the day.

Chelsea FC – Juan Mata Makes All the Difference
For about 55 minutes, Juan Mata was denied space and freedom, and Chelsea looked like a team that might lose to a league one side in the FA Cup replay. But then he scored, and floodgates opened for Chelsea, and Mata helped Frank Lampard look better than he really is, and gave Rafa Benitez a few more days of relaxation.

Chelsea FC – Oscar Hides the Terrible Fernando Torres
No matter how many chances he gets, it seems that anything Fernando Torres had going for him earlier this season and then again from time to time has almost been depleted, with both Eden Hazard and Juan Mata, despite countless tries, failing to make the broken Chelsea striker to work like before. Luckily, Oscar does have some football to overcome his physical adaptation to Europe.

Chelsea FC – Eden Hazard Gets a Near Perfect Comeback
After becoming a villain in the minds of ball-boys across the United Kingdom, it was time for Eden Hazard to come back and do what he was brought for; play and score for Chelsea, and maybe even more for Rafa Benitez, who needed 3 points more than anyone would like to admit.
