Manchester United have made 10 passes. Chelsea 56. (BBC Football Live) That's after only 5 minutes. Damning stat, eh @Matth_2014 ?
Mourhino has told the press that he'd like to bring Hazard to United. Of course he would! It's Mourhino's way. If you cannot coach good players to become great players, nick the good players that have already been made great by good coaches. By the time that Mourhino's lack of coaching ability has taken its toll on Hazard, United will have got a couple of decent seasons out of him. Eventually, Hazard would be reduced to the level of Sanchez or Fellani.
It may have been a more attacking line-up on paper from Manchester United than we were expecting but it's a familiar set-up, nine men behind the ball for large periods. (BBC Football Live) Poch drives a juggernaut. Mourhino parks a bus.
United could be as low as 15th in the table, after this weekend. Has there ever been as United side as ****e as this one?
TheMemeMan: It's fine. I mean we might actually have to start playing football now... (Twitter to BBC Football Live from a sarcastic United fan)
I'm really looking forward to Mourhino's meltdown in the post-match interview. I wonder which of his players he is going to viciously slate? There's so many to choose from.
