Manchester United arrive home after a nightmare journey back from London

A small group of stars were spotted arriving at Stockport train station late last night following a nightmare journey home from London.

Having lost 1-0 at Stamford Bridge thanks to an Alvaro Morata header, were then delayed by two-hours at Euston due to an earlier incident near Watford.

Only a select few players including Antonio Valencia, Marouane Fellaini and Daley Blind were spotted leaving Stockport station just after 12am, with many of the squad staying in London for the international break.

Manager Mourinho also opted to stay down south, heading straight from the match to his nearby London home.
