Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta says they cannot afford to underestimate Manchester United today.

Chelsea know all too well the feeling of replacing a club legend halfway through the season, having replaced Frank Lampard with Thomas Tuchel in January.

"Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

"They were not good times [when Lampard was sacked]. We were in a bad position."
