Chelsea news: Thibaut Courtois is right about Man Utd concerns - Steve Nicol


CHELSEA goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was right to say Sunday’s game against Manchester United is a must-win.

That is the view of Liverpool legend and ESPN FC pundit Steve Nicol.
Chelsea head into the game off the back of a disappointing 3-0 loss in the Champions League to Roma.
Antonio Conte’s side are already nine points behind Pep Guardiola's Manchester City at the top of the table, with hopes of defending their title diminishing rapidly.
After the loss to Roma, Courtois claimed Chelsea cannot afford to not win against Manchester United, and Nicol is of the same opinion.

And you did it with a smile. Until one day you woke up and asked yourself, "What the hell am I doing?! This isn't what I want to do." You realized y...

Lionel Messi is arguably one of the best players of the game in this century, the Argentine has always maintained consistency in punishing opposition players and goalkeepers.  A feat that has seen him being crowned with the prestigious Ballon d'Or award a record five times. While Messi has been a torn in the flesh for most goalkeepers, some of them have proven to be invincible against the Argentine.   Here are four goalkeepers that have somehow managed not to concede against the 'magical' Barcelona forward. 1. Pepe Reina ( 2 clean sheets)  Liverpool knocked Barcelona out on away goals when they beat then holders 2-1 at the Nou Camp in the 2007 last-16, before losing 1-0 at home.
