What They're Saying
Shrewsbury Town manager Micky Mellon (via the Telegraph): "We've found there's a massive appetite for football in this town. There's a fan-base who will come and watch big games of football. Big ties like the Chelsea game will be great to keep moving us forward. Everybody will talk about the money, but the most positive thing is that we're going to fill the ground. We've got a worldwide audience, so if somebody comes here or watches it or reads about it and takes an extra seat up in the stadium, that's a positive for us."
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho (via the Guardian): "I have only one day, we travel to London and we are travelling to Shrewsbury. We are in trouble because we have so many injured players. It is even more difficult for us to go. We have to go. We now have a difficult match because they are doing very well in their league and doing very well against superior teams in the Capital One Cup. It's a big day for them. We know it will be difficult for us, but that's football.
