Manchester United vs. Chelsea Nicknamed 'El Boringo' by Rival Fans

Tom WebbDec 27, 2015

Manchester United and Chelsea have both endured dramatically disappointing campaigns so far, and with the two set to go head-to-head at Old Trafford on Monday at 5:30 p.m. GMT, rival fans have seized the opportunity to point and laugh at the season's surprise strugglers.

In years gone by, the fixture has regularly carried the utmost significance at the top of the Premier League, but it's a little different this year. And with United and Chelsea currently sixth and 15th in the table, respectively, the clash is being dubbed "El Boringo."

Imagine comparing El Boringo to El Clásico. It's like comparing a Kia to a Lamborghini. https://t.co/XMki0cW7Bv

With just 45 goals between them from a combined 36 games so far, it's an accurate nickname.
