Last week, witnessing Chelsea coach Conte complaining too much about his student's injury, Mourinho only gently advised his colleagues to be less "argue-free" because that is normal in football, especially in a harsh environment like the Premier League.
Mourinho also expressed that he has spent many years fighting in the Premier League, so problems like this have encountered too many. However, at the press conference before the big match tomorrow night, the Polish coach expressed his sympathy for Conte.
"To be honest, I could cry all week with the current injury situation of the players. I don't have Pogba for 11 weeks, I don't have Pogba playing against Chelsea or Spurs, and I don't have Pogba playing in the Champions League," Mourinho shared.
The "Special One" constantly mentioned Pogba is reasonable because the French midfielder is an extremely important link in M.U's playing style. Pogba's nearly 3-month absence greatly affects the strength of the "Red Devils". Mourinho insists that with Pogba, the Spurs game last week could have been much easier for Man United.
Returning to Chelsea, Conte had " set a blind eye" on the pre-match against AS Roma in midweek that Kante would return to play. However, the French midfielder still could not find any place and Chelsea lost 0-3 to their opponent.
With tomorrow's big match, Conte also revealed that Kante will return to play and the image of this midfielder practicing on the field also makes The Blues fans somewhat believe in that. Kante's return will make Chelsea's midfield more solid and Bakayoko will somewhat reduce the pressure. "Little Vieira" had to endure pain to play in the loss to Roma 3 days ago.
Chelsea need to regain their form early because information about the conflict between Conte and owner Abramovic has been circulating all week. Although there is no authenticity in the information, looking at the way Abramovic sacked a series of coaches against Conte, this is not uncommon.
