There was no sign of Wayne Rooney on the Stockport platform, with team-mates Marouane Fellaini and Ashley Young, but the England skipper could have hopped on a stop later at Wilmslow.

Young was all smiles, as he perched on his luggage, as he hopes to keep his place in the starting XI after getting a surprise start against Liverpool on Monday.

Lingard  has been teaching team-mates his Dab dance moves this season – with Paul Pogba a willing partner – but he was more focused on a secret handshake on Saturday.

Mourinho is gearing up for a return to the club that sacked him in December after a dramatic dip in form just months after winning the Premier League title the previous season.

Staff at the west London club are desperate to get one over the Portuguese after his second stint at the club turned seriously sour.

The Blues could be boosted by the return of captain John Terry who had been sidelined with an ankle injury.
