Let's wait and see

I believe there's gonna be a lot of shocker

Deriz surely going to a lot of shocker diz season

but still business as usual 4 d big bwoyz

#5 will not happen, he is not Conte that usually run into spectators to celebrate a goal scored by his team against minnows. From my observation, Mourinho has over grown doing such he rarely celebrate goals scored by his team these days, even all thru' last season's Europa league Triumph.
