Between Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge, plus a couple of TV appearances we should be looking at a couple of million extra income that wasn't in the financial forecasts for this season. Two games that will cover all the income from drop on attendances were suffering this season. And there is me thinking football is about winning games.

Chelsea are well known for blocking loan players from playing against them. But there's Frank. I don't think we would have had the slightest chance of signing either Tomori or Mount without him, and especially with the Hisser in charge, so you never know. Will Chelsea throw another favour to one of their own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waffle Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 If the club weren’t trying to cause a talking point with this game they’d have cleared this up in Frank’s statement yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Chelsea will have made a decision yet. I think whether or not Chelsea allow Mount and Tomori to play will depend on how strong a side Sarri intends to put out. If they're going to be resting half their first team, they're not going to risk getting knocked out by their own players. But a near full strength side? They wouldn't see a huge risk and there'd be something to seeing their loanees play against their first team counterparts in a competitive setting. I think its definitely more likely they don't allow them to play though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derby blood Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Looking forward to this game, unable to go to old Trafford due to being on holiday in Poland, will deffo make this game though, can we pull off another shock, I think it is written in the stars , that Frank will go back to Stamford bridge and put one over his old club? Well that's what I will be hoping for, Bryson to win it with a last minute winner. Chelsea fans unsure if to cry or cheer, when there top scorer of all time puts one over them.
