Fans of Chelsea have highlighted the one thing that Blues supporters want from their Carabao Cup clash with Manchester United – revenge.
Following a tweet posted to Chelsea’s official account showing Billy Gilmour and Christian Pulisic in training , fans had one request on their lips for the Blues.
Following the 4-0 opening day of the season mauling for Frank Lampard’s side at Old Trafford (as per BBC), Chelsea fans have been counting down the minutes for the chance to get their own back.

Since the opening day defeat for Lampard and his side, the two club’s fortunes have switched – with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Red Devils falling on stonier form in recent months (per BBC).
With Blues fans still reeling, many were calling for Lampard to start a full-strength Chelsea side in the Carabao Cup clash.

What do we think?
While supporters will be keen to see their side return the favour lent by Solskjaer’s side at the beginning of the season – the Carabao Cup presents a fantastic opportunity for youngsters.
Lampard will be able to give young players the experience against Premier League opposition which will stand them in good stead, whilst resting key players – and should the Blues exact revenge in those circumstances it will taste all the sweeter.
