And then when Chelsea went to 10 men, I was worried! I was thinking, it&#8217;s just like United now to go and lose the game. And then I think that would have brought a whole lot of more pressure on the manager. But I thought they played really well first half and then second half, it&#8217;s silly, it&#8217;s naive from Casemiro. As soon as he got his yellow card, I was watching it in the BBC studios with Danny Murphy and I said that I&#8217;d take him off. He&#8217;s going to get sent off.
