After the Lord Mayor's Show...
Back in 2004, Wayne Rooney scored a hat-trick on his debut for Manchester United, as Sir Alex Ferguson's side demolished the Turkish team Fenerbahçe 6-2 at home. The Old Trafford outfit followed that up by eking out a miserable 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough. José Mourinho, in his first incarnation as Chelsea manager, jibed (in a logic-defying way) that they should have saved some of their goals from the Champions League game tto beta Middlesbrough.
Now, with Mourinho back in charge for a second time at Stamford Bridge, the Blues have crushed unfortunate Slovenian champions, Maribor (who had previously drawn their previous two group stage matches with Schalke and Sporting Lisbon) by half a dozen goals without reply. Next up in the Premier League they face Manchester United. Will Mourinho be left ruing that he should have saved some goals from Tuesday night's pasting for the weekend?
