Chelsea’s social media game is really on point at the moment as it looks increasingly hard to argue they are taking frequent pops at old manager Jose Mourinho.
The Manchester United boss has wound up fans of his old club by pointing three fingers at them on a couple of his recent returns to Stamford Bridge with the Red Devils.
The Portuguese is of course making reference to the three titles he won with Chelsea, but he’s no longer so popular with his old employers ever since taking over a rival and for his continued digs at previous Blues boss Antonio Conte last season and the season before that.
It now seems as though Chelsea are aiming deliberate subtle digs back at Mourinho by taking any opportunity possible to get players posing with three fingers held up for a variety of reasons.
Here are some recent social media posts that have caused a stir, with a number of fans picking up on it and enjoying the chance to wind up their former hero.

Ross Barkley is the first Englishman to score in three consecutive @PremierLeague games for the Blues since Frank Lampard, back in 2013! ? #BURCHE pic.twitter.com/5dcJarfh3S
