Many Chelsea fans on Twitter are keeping their fingers crossed that Juan Mata might return to Stamford Bridge, after he was brought on and then taken off again during Manchester United’s Community Shield victory.
Mata, a two-time Chelsea player of the year, left the club in January 2014 after being deemed surplus to requirements by then Blues boss Jose Mourinho – now in charge at United.
Mourinho explained he replaced Mata in the closing moments of Sunday’s win over Leicester, 30 minutes after bringing him on, because he “needed to take off the smallest player” – but Chelsea fans were unconvinced.
However, United fans are less convinced that Mourinho is trying to force Mata out of another club.

Hahaha... Mourinho's brain is experiencing overheat. I think if e doesn't like Mata e should let him go. E treats Mata like an Academy player though a big name player. Conte can you please bring back our Mata to resolve our matter?

I would be happy seeing new Boss Antonio Conte bringing Juan Mata back at Chelsea. He got all the qualities we need. Come on Conte. Bring our god Juan back!
That is a good one my fellow fans but i suggest we allow our manager conte to handle it his own way.
