First quarter of the game stats have dropped: United have enjoyed 66% possession, have had six shots to one and forced nine corners. They're still missing one vital ingredient...a goal.

Diego Costa's fuse is minute. He goes from 0-FUMING in fractions of a second and he implodes again after he is denied a corner when his header flicks off the top of Daley Blind's head.

Getting Costa wound up may be Chelsea's best bet. 

Here's the heat maps of both teams so far. All Manchester United (on the right) - and have Chelsea even been down the left wing?

"There's a feeling of inevitability about Manchester United scoring. I really have been impressed with them. Chelsea look a far better team with Eden Hazard on the pitch. I'm amazed he is not playing."

The move for that Anthony Martial effort - the highlight of the game so far - started with a pass by young Cameron Borthwick-Jackson and involved ex-Blues midfielder Juan Mata before Martial let fly.

Liam Nield: Great start by Manchester United but we need to score before half time.

HR Greatness: Martial feasting on Ivanovic.

Mahesh: What is Matic's role in defense? He keeps finding the emptiest part of the pitch and stays there.

Anthony Martial whips in a dangerous cross but Nemanja Matic tracks his man - Marouane Fellaini - all the way to clear with a header.

Chelsea have been simply terrible in this game so far. Asking for a hiding...

Stewart, Broadstairs: I fear Hiddink is more concerned about his unbeaten record than Chelsea playing attacking football.

Chelsea have made half (54) of Manchester United's 108 passes so far. This is as lethargic and empty a Chelsea performance as I've seen in some time...

"It's a fantastic strike from Anthony Martial, but what a save from Thibaut Courtois. Absolutely brilliant. Martial cutting in from that left wing is such a threat - Chelsea have got to show him out wide."

Brilliant shot! Superb save! Absolutely class, promotion-worthy camera work!

Well done sir/madam, for capturing the slight, but decisive, deviation on the ball as Thibaut Courtois fingertips a shot from Anthony Martial past the post. Superb...

Gary Neville just can't catch a break, can he? 

Well, apart from being handed a first job at a massive European club by his billionaire mate of course...

His Valencia side - who seem to be inventing new ways of not winning - are 1-0 down at struggling Real Betis. Join Emlyn Begley for that one, over here.

"Manchester United have got more zip in their play, they've come out as if they mean business and are dictating matters. Chelsea seem like they've nothing to play for, they're rigid and cumbersome."

Roy Hodgson is at Stamford Bridge by the way. No doubt old CBJ will get a call-up in the next few months. He's played five times for Manchester United after all.

Michael Carrick, another hoping for the Eurostar ticket to France, has a low shot easily saved by Thibaut Courtois.

Manchester United very much bossing possession in the opening 10 minutes. Chelsea haven't got going.

Denis Ethan: Déjà vu here at the Bridge with Man United starting well, creating chances then losing to an odd goal later in the game.

Chelsea have started this game like a team who were all out late last night, in a discotheque. Bleary-eyed and leaden-footed. Not the names of two Manchester United players...

United win their fourth corner already but it comes to nothing. Guus Hiddink looks cold, and bored, on the bench. Flat game.

"Chelsea haven't yet put a glove on Manchester United. The away side have been able to come out, pass the ball around, and are playing with confidence."

You need to have a word with yourself Ben. All Manchester United so far, without either side posing a threat. 

Chris Harvey: United need to go all out here. They have a major chance of condemning Guardiola to a season in the Europa League. Motivation.

Eyobele: Martial's Pace v Ivanovic to win us the game!

Ben Edgell: I haven't given up hope of Chelsea winning the league again this season...
