True Blue 850 Posted October 18, 2018 Even tough the difference in form is evident somehow i am not super confident as the predictions that we should ease to a win. Hopefully we start of well control the game and kill them off early. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just guessing but surely it Mou the coach of Chelsea when that happened, right ? Chelsea 4-0 Man Utd. October 2016. Antonio Conte. Only reason I remember is I was in South Africa at the time with 2 mates who both supported United and we were looking for ages to find a place to watch it. They were not happy after Pedro scored within 60 seconds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mourinho was managing Man Utd for that game, by the way... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That score right there highlights the great shape he left Chelsea and the fucked up mess Man Utd was. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RandoEFC 4,471 Posted October 18, 2018 I can't remember ever looking forward more to Man Utd games. If they lose, Mourinho looks like a cunt and I don't like him so it's funny, but if they get a result then all the WUMs in the media, who actually get paid for being WUMs rather than quality reporters in many cases, look like cunts which is funny because I don't like them either. Last time out was gold with United hilariously going 2-0 down to Newcastle before going against the script and trolling the media and forcing them to rip up their Jose obituaries for another week. This time I'm hoping for Juan Mata to give United an early lead, Chelsea to have 80% possession for the next 80 minutes before eventually going 2-1 up with at least one of those goals being controversial, only for United, preferably through Martial or Sanchez, to steal an undeserved draw. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danny 1,095 Posted October 19, 2018 Feel like I've walked into an alternative universe where Chelsea are the exciting, free flowing attacking side and United are the dull, laborious and robotic defensive side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He left in the middle of December when you were 16th and 1 point from the relegation zone having only won 4 out of the first 16 league games and losing 9.

CaaC (John) 2,443 Posted October 19, 2018 It has the making of either a boring 0-0 or and entertaining 1-1 but I would love United to come out on top...gulp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero 3,627 Posted October 19, 2018 Really should be winning this given the form both teams are in, however it looks to be a potential banana skin. Early goal for us would be brilliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero 3,627 Posted October 19, 2018 I reckon Mourinho will have a plan in stopping Jorginho instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spike 2,598 Posted October 19, 2018 2 hours ago, Teso dos Bichos said: Herrera is fit and ready to play according to JM. Get him to shadow Hazard and I don't see the rest of the Chelsea squad having much of a chance to score. Pogba and Sanchez to score 2-0 JWUJFW Sounds good to me. Herrera will have a red card by Hazard’s second dribble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that'll be a big part of the tactics, but I imagine having a midfielder shadow Hazard is also going to be a big part of stopping this Chelsea... if United are going to be stopping this Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

LFCMadLad 1,656 Posted October 20, 2018 I think you lot are looking far too deep into things and are giving Mourinho far too much credit when it comes to tactics or 'shadowing thus player' and 'marking that player' etc etc We all know he'll just park the bus and hope for the fucking best.

LFCMadLad 1,656 Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Can see United getting fucking whipped here Edit that.. after seeing Utd's line up with world class players such as Pogba etc, I think Mourinho should be wining this game!

Inverted 1,280 Posted October 20, 2018 Set pieces are one of the most obvious ways of getting a sense of a team's level of preparation from the training ground. United are consistently shit at defending them, despite being physically dominant over basically every team they come across. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stan 9,590 Posted October 20, 2018 Just now, Cannabis said: Not sure if serious. huh? What's not serious about that? Mourinho can't get the players to do what he wants or instruct them properly, alluding to @Inverted's point about not being able to prepare them properly. Therefore one of the things that leads to losing games and conceding goals. Which is what the tweet is about - conceding same amount of goals in considerably less games. Obviously also down to players just being dumb as fuck, but point still stands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBalon 2,607 Posted October 20, 2018 I thought Mourinho was known and revered for getting average players and teams to win honours? He has an average team at his disposal to do this... The most expensive average team in the history of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
