I know how to beat Chelsea – Mourinho reveals United’s game plan after 2-0 win


heheheehe........Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has said that he knew the best tactical plan, that would see his team defeat Premier League leaders, Chelsea.
Marcus Rashford and Ander Herrera scored for the hosts  as they cut the Blues’ lead at the top to four points.

Mourinho revealed afterwards that it was the same system he used in their 1-0 loss at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup, but it did not work that time because Herrera was sent off for two bookable offences.
“We went to Stamford Bridge in the cup with same tactics, the game was totally controlled with 11 players, only the decision that made us play with 10 men for the second half and 10 minutes in the first half, gave Chelsea a chance to be dominant.
“We knew that playing this way would be very difficult for them.
“Marcus Rashford played fantastically well. He had a very good game at Stamford Bridge in the cup, exactly the same chance to score, because he is faster than their defenders.
“Today he scored and it gave the team more confidence, more stability,” he told Sky Sports.

Chelsea saw their lead at the top of the Premier League cut to four points, after they were beaten 2-0 by Manchester United on Sunday.
Antonio Conte’s men were hoping to restore the seven-point gap between them and Tottenham Hotspur, who hammered Bournemouth 4-0 at White Hart Lane on Saturday.
However, United who started with their top scorer Zaltan Ibrahimovic on the bench, took the lead in the opening 10 minutes.
Ander Herrera appeared to use his hand while winning the ball, before he released Marcus Rashford with a slide-rule pass. The teenager blasted the ball beyond Asmir Begovic, who was deputising for the injured Thibaut Courtois.
Jose Mourinho’s men doubled their lead early in the second half, as Herrera’s shot was deflected by Kurt Zouma and lopped over Begovic.
