Willian has issued a rallying cry ahead of Chelsea’s trip to Manchester United on Monday evening.

The Blues are looking to bounce back from more points dropped after a 2-2 draw with Watford at Stamford Bridge on Boxing Day.

Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been linked with Louis van Gaal’s position at Old Trafford after United suffered a third successive Premier League loss at the Britannia Stadium in Saturday’s early kick-off.

And Chelsea forward Willian took to social media to rally his Chelsea team-mates ahead of Monday’s intriguing clash between the struggling superpowers at Old Trafford.

Willian has been one of Chelsea’s most-consistent players in an otherwise disappointing season for the defending Premier League champions.

The Brazilian playmaker has scored two goals and has made three assists in 16 Premier League games so far this season.
