Chelsea clash with Brighton
Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea side are currently locked in action with Brighton, in a game that could see the Blues keep within touching distance of Manchester City with a win.
And despite an injury scare which saw Reece James forced off the pitch midway through the first half, Romelu Lukaku handed the Blues the lead, nodding home from a corner somewhat against the run of play.

Brighton finished the half in the ascendancy, and one man, in particular, caught the eye.
Manchester United fans make transfer plea
For those Manchester United fans watching the clash, there was one man that stood out. Midfield man Yves Bissouma.
They took to Twitter in their droves to plead with the Manchester United hierarchy to bring him to Old Trafford, as can be seen below.
Bissouma….get on it @ManUtd

How on earth is Yves Bissouma still a Brighton player? @ManUtd are your scouts blind? This guy is way better than Pogba with a fat salary and steady flat performances! #CHEBHA #Bissouma #ManUtd #MidfieldMaestro

Bissouma is a complete midfielder, he needs to come to Manchester United and ball with the big boys.
