Chelsea are in a tricky situation against Manchester United, with injuries mounting up, and they need any help they can get on the pitch tonight.
Harry Maguire almost gave the Blues a chance when he plunged his foot into Michy Batshuayi’s unmentionables in a challenge on the touchline.
The referee, and then VAR saw nothing wrong with it, but former Chelsea man Cesc Fabregas didn’t agree, making his thoughts clear on Twitter.
He kept his thoughts short and sweet, as you can see:
Has Harry Maguire got away with one here? 👀

It’s very clear that Maguire extends his leg deliberately there. We’re not sure what the ref was looking at.
Chelsea have now had a second blow, with Willian booked a dive when he was clearly fouled.
This ref really owes us one now. If we keep pushing, and he realises his error at half time, he might just give us one.
