Don't understand why everyone is going at Sarri, he can't help it when players like Alonso, Barkley, Pedro keep making basic errors. My only criticism of him is his selection. I believe Ruben, Odoi, and Emerson will make the world of a difference if they get the chance. Tottenham lost their last 4 games and drew 1, Chelsea won 3 games out of 5. Clearly, they are better. Chelsea lacks some stability, confidence. They need to work on their midfield. It's too bad. His lineups can be better, but there is literally no quality manager that will want to come to a club where the manager doesn’t get the time to implement his system with enough transfer windows to build their team. I'm just saying his target was champions league football for next season and they still got a chance in both competitions if he doesn't get it then he might be in trouble.
Chelsea is 1 point behind Spurs. Pochettino will drop anyone who doesn't perform but one problem with Sarri is he doesn't do that usually. Alonso didn't play well but he didn't drop him. Willian and Pedro didn't either. Barkley and Kova are underperforming but still, he plays them. And now Rudiger too played bad and made very bad decisions that went unpunished. Christensen, CHO, and RLC would start next game if it was Poch. They brought him for exciting football but fans are all bored. How do you defend against that? Hope Alonso and Azpi watched Liverpool's Robertson and Alexander Arnold? That's how wing backs play.
Look I agree that some players need replacement it's a terribly aging squad, but when you have players who are better in their respective positions at your disposal and you refuse to use them, that's not a good idea. That lineup could have cost them the game and this is against a team fighting relegation. But he has got some wrong players in the club. Maybe only the players need to change. If they sack Sarri there are no other good managers currently available for intake.
Respect everyone's opinion as they're entitled to them. If people believe Sarri to not be the right manager for them, then it's their opinion. It doesn't make them any less of a fan than you are, please understand that. Fans all love Chelsea, but most people aren't happy with what they are witnessing. You have no right to bash anyone or any fanbase including fallCardiff City as they were wronged today as well by poor officiating. Still, a win is a win. If you're a real fan, support Chelsea whenever they win or lose, whether they're on top of their game or going through a rough phase. Don't matter who the manager is, its all about being there for them as fans.
Sometimes learning can take more than a season, its what pep did during his first with man city. Watching the game today, players were not moving off the ball as much as Sarri clearly wants. He also did say before this that many of the internationals looked tired during training. Chelsea got lucky, yes, but fans should just keep supporting.
