Ian Maatsen has admitted that Chelsea’s upcoming clash with Manchester United will be different from their last match against Brighton.

The Blues edged the Seagulls 3-2 at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, despite being a man down.

Maatsen is happy with the victory, and thinks it will give the team a lift ahead of the game with Man United on Wednesday, although he also warns it won’t be easy.

Maatsen says: “I think we just need to keep going like this. We need to have time to get to know each other and it will come. It’s just about time, but yesterday we showed we can create and finish chances very well.

“Obviously today gives us a good spirit moving forward to Man United, but it’s going to be a different game so we’re going to prepare as we always do.

“Of course yesterday we enjoyed the win, but today we are back at Cobham to reflect quickly on this game, get the positives out of it and then bring this good spirit to Man United.”
