Chelsea did not deserve to lose to Manchester United today, according to manager Andre-Villas Boas.

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas believes that his side did not deserve to lose Manchester United earlier today.

The Blues slumped to 3-1 at Old Trafford, despite creating a host of goalscoring opportunities.

Villas-Boas' men trailed 3-0 at half-time, but the boss was pleased with his side's second half reaction.

"The scoreline is crazy," Villas-Boas told Sky Sports News. "It was a very strange match because both sides created a lot of chances.

"The response after we conceded them goals was very, very good.

"We created a lot and it was a good display but luck wasn't on our side."

Chelsea now trail table-toppers United by five points in the Premier League.
