However, Mourinho claims facing Chelsea is not especially emotional, especially with Liverpool coming to Old Trafford next month. “It’s any normal game and probably to play Liverpool in a couple of weeks’ time means more. Because for my club – and everyone knows that the most important thing is not me – and my club’s supporters to play Liverpool really has a special meaning. “That’s the way I have to look at things. And I don’t have any bad feeling in relation to Chelsea Football Club to say, ‘Oh, I’m going to play against my former club, I am going to prove this, I am going to prove that.’ “I’m not going to prove anything.
