We are so excited guys. Our joy is that Club Football has returned. Tomorrow will be packed and we may not have writing space to give something to digest, something to excite. So, we decided to do this today – the Chelsea and Man United Rivalry and head to head record. It’s something to give both sets of fans bragging right. Man United fans can boast of overall dominance and record, but Chelsea can claim they live in the Present and have really dealt with Man United. The other interesting thing we will discuss is #The_Mourinho_Effect, having served both Man United and Chelsea. Let’s see guys:

• Overall number of games between Chelsea and Man United = 180
• Overall win for Man United = 77
• Overall win for Chelsea = 54
• Overall draw = 49
- [Smiling] This means there’s always likely to be a winner between them. Draw record is lesser. Who will win tomorrow #Wink?
- Chelsea are not Man United’s mate [Wink]. United have a 23 wins over them. #GGMU [Wink].

CHELSEA AND MAN UNITED GAMES PLAYED SINCE 2013 = 14 games
• Chelsea win since 2013 = 8
• United win since 2012 = 2
• Chelsea and Man United draw since 2013 = 4
- WOW… things changed from 2013. United was no more a match for Chelsea. Chelsea fans can then brag that they live in the Present. Let’s go back a bit to cover the whole of Roman Abramovich era:

<strong>TOTAL CHELSEA AND UNITED PLAY IN ABRAMOVICH ERA</strong> = 44
• United win in Abramovich era = 14
• Chelsea win in Abramovich era = 20
• Draw is therefore = 10
- This means that the Abramovich Era brought success to Chelsea. Need not mention that his era brought Chelsea’s first League title after 50 years. The man that started it was Jose Mourinho, the most Successful Manager in Chelsea’s History. Let’s now do the Mourinho Effect:

<strong>CHELSEA WITH MOURINHO STAT AGAINST MAN UNITED:</strong>
• Played 14 games in all
• Mourinho won 7 for Chelsea, Drew 5, lost only 2.
• This means Mourinho contributed 7 wins in 14 games (of total 20 wins in 44 games in the Abramovich Era).
• Guess Mourinho has been underestimated you know. When people talk him down and he reminds people of who he is and what he has accomplished, they say he is proud and bragging and living in the past. Is that true? Let’s see how #The_Mourinho_Effect continues as a Man United Manager against Chelsea:

CHELSEA-UNITED STAT WITH MOURINHO AS UNITED MANAGER:
• Overall games played = 6
• Chelsea won = 4
• Man United won = 2
• Man United’s win over Chelsea since 2013 = 2
- Chelsea still has to upper hand you know. However, the state of Man United defends Mourinho. The only times Man United has won Chelsea since 2013, has been with Mourinho as their Manager (2). Shouldn’t Man United fans be more grateful? Else, Chelsea would have married United now you know.

For our final analyses, we give the first Credit to Roman Abramovich. He proved a great businessman and winner to transforms Chelsea’s fortune upon takeover. Do you know Chelsea was sold to him because of debt? He bought Chelsea, took responsibility of their debt, and now, Chelsea thrives. Chelsea is now Joint most successful English Club with Man United - 5 titles since 2003. Really great.
The second Man we respect in it all is Jose Mourinho. The man is a phenomenon. From the 5 Chelsea titles mentioned above, he won 3. We already mentioned that he is the most successful Chelsea Manager, but records like only conceding 15 goals, keeping 25 cleansheets, recording 29 wins, all in a one season - something any Manager will dream to achieve.
However, we think Mourinho’s greatest problem is Personality Clash. He ever wants to be the top dog. With any challenge (from both players and Club Management), things don’t work out. Notwithstanding, if he has his way, he will definitely succeed. He loves numbers, ever want to hit the mark, seems to always know what he is doing, therefore falls out with people that try to tell him what to do. And because of his knowhow, he ever defends himself and what he is doing; but people mistake it for arrogance.

Recent remark by Zlatan Ibrahimovic supports our thoughts of Mourinho. Zlatan recently came to Mourinho’s defence. He said:
“Everyone criticizes Mourinho and I don’t think it’s because of the results, it’s because of the character, because of the way he is… I see myself a little bit in that situation because we have our vision, we have our confidence, we believe in things, we say certain things in our own way and of course we get the blame… We get criticized more when it’s not going good. But when it’s going good and we win, the satisfaction is bigger than the other ones… We are ourselves, we believe in what we do and we do it until the end. That is what is going on there.”

We rest our case wishing Man United fans can be more grateful for Mourinho, their most league win in post-Ferguson era was with mourinho last season – 25 wins and 81 points, 8 points short of when United last won the Title. They should see themselves as improving. For Chelsea fans, they should keep their heads up high, they are on top of things and on top of the table, however, they should be wary of a serial winner who does not Believe in SarriBall as they do [LOL]. Cheer Everyone, we are Footbalgeria, we Love Football!!!
