Case Study: Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United 5/11/2017

This one seemed a bit more interesting in the build-up than an away trip for a Jose Mourinho team against a bigger side should be, due to Manchester United's surprisingly attacking display at Old Trafford in April. Mourinho's lack of ambition beyond grinding out goal-less draws in the away games…

Retrospective: Lazio 4-4 AC Milan 1999
