Mourinho: I will respect Chelsea fans
Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has said that he would show respect to Chelsea supporters at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
Mourinho faces his former club which is coming at a time he is under pressure to deliver results.
United are eighth in the Premier League standings, seven points behind Chelsea who are second.
“For me it’s another game. Would I celebrate like crazy, my team goal at Stamford Bridge or my team victory at Stamford Bridge? I don’t think so. I think I would try to control myself and to respect the stadium and the supporters that were my supporters and stadium for many years.
“To do that should be something where I completely lost my emotional control, which is not easy, so I would think which stadium I am in, which public is in the stands, but apart from that it’s another match for me.
“I want to do well for my team, players, support, I am 100% Manchester United tomorrow, no more space than respect for the stadium and the fans,” the 55-year-old said at the Pre-match conference.
