(Photo) Ratcliffe converses with Brailsford at Stamford Bridge after Ten Hag urges new owners to not ‘interrupt the process’

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is in attendance at Stamford Bridge alongside Sir Dave Brailsford. 

As it stands, they won’t be best pleased with what they’ve seen of Manchester United’s opening half against Chelsea.

Conor Gallagher opened the scoring inside five minutes before Cole Palmer doubled the Blues’ lead from the spot in the 19th minute, which came after a foul from Antony on Marc Cucurella.

Alejandro Garnacho has ignited some hope for the flustered Reds, as he was quick to capitalise on a Moises Caicedo mistake and halve the deficit for United.

Ratcliffe and Brailsford’s appearance coincidentally comes days after Erik ten Hag urged the club’s new co-owners to not ‘interrupt the process’.
