Guessing coming on for like 5 minutes is considered playing a match for Sarri.

Kick Alonso to the reserves for the rest of the year, and start CHO most every game (hell try Willian at AMF even, it is where he started), plus play Ampadu a shit tonne more, hell play him at RB for the turgid Azpi or even to backup Emerson.

THEN we can talk, bifter boy.

Alonso OUT is non-negotiable. Same with playing CHO.

Fuck yer sorryball, your decisions are helping to destroy the club.

Whoever was the trigger-puller on renewing Alonso, not selling Willian to Barca, and buying Drinkwater for £70m (fee plus wages)

needs to be sacked and banned from football back-office placements.

Chelsea star completely ignores Maurizio Sarri tactical instruction vs Malmo

Chelsea winger Willian reportedly completely ignored the tactical instructions of manager Maurizio Sarri against Malmo in the Europa League this evening.

The Brazilian was supposedly urged to do more pressing by a screaming Sarri on the touchline, according to the Daily Star’s Paul Brown, only to ignore his manager’s request

Its been happening all season. Not just Willian. Morata, Hazard, Kovacic, Giroud, basically everyone has not done it at one time. But the pressing has been shit, whether or not this is through a lack of effort or lack of tactical understanding, I dont know.

The fact Willian is still at this club is the most disgusting thing ever.

Yawn. Not believing any of his words.

Anyway, that first half against Malmo has to be one of the most boring halves I've seen in a very long time. They were playing very very safe. Tons of sideways and backward passing. Luckily, the second half was better.

Winning against Malmo was expected, any other result I would have wanted Sarri's head gone tonight.

All that result did is delay the inevitable. Sunday will most likely be Sarri's last game in charge, when he is expected to put back Alonso and Jorginho. And we get smashed 5-0 or something.

Probably the first time in my history of supporting Chelsea, that I'm not going to bother watching the final we're in. A FINAL. I want to enjoy my Sunday.

 

Awwww! I'm sure they will be bereft not having your 'support'!

I really give up trying to make some balance in peeps heads just saying it's Sarris fault we are in this position And trying to get the players to shoulder at least half the responsibility.

Always the managers fault. Sound like a bunch of North Londoners moaning and whining.

Don't be this pathetic. Chelsea doesn't even know that you and I exist (some Chelsea Women players do know I exist), so with or without my support it won't make any difference! Use your common sense, lad!

Sarri has shown defeatist, stubborn, naive attitudes that we don't need at Chelsea. And while the players are shite, HE is the one that constantly picks the worst shite players in our squad. Alonso, Willian and before the turn of the year, Morata.

But don't worry. Shortly after Sunday, hopefully we can then focus 100% on these primadonnas and getting them out.

Tbf other than CHO for Willian (even based on tonight not always straight forward, CHO faded in and out of the game a lot which you can expect with young players as well as inconsistencies in performance), Emerson and Giroud are hardly obvious improvements on Alonso and Morata if they are at all (which for me, other than a few games Emerson has done well in patches, is just as bad as Alonso).

In all reality, poor squad building has left us in this mess more than anything. Can blame Sarri, Conte, Jose for playing player X over player Y but the one consistent has been that the club has been picking transfer targets 75% of the time for almost the last 8 or 9 years.

Back in 2011 we were linked with Cesar Azpilicueta, Andre Schurrle, Antonio Rudiger, Willian under AVB but we ended up signing them under Di Matteo, Mourinho and Conte. If that doesnt explain a lot then I dont know what does. Not to say they havent done well, werent good players or whatever but its obvious the club identifies and recruits the players as opposed to the manager having final say.

Weve had the success but it was built on aggresive, counter attacking, low block football. Go through the usual cycle of could be contenders, become champions and then fall off. Improve, hit a good level and then dont build on the success. Constant cycle and poor recruitment is a huge reason.

I didn't understand his comment that club has to sell one winger if they want him to play CHO more next season.  What? Pedro will be 32 and Willian 31 in the summer . I must ask for how much longer he's planning to rate them over him?  Unbelievable. He is the one who should tell the club to sell them both! Actually Sarri and our board are perfect for each other.  No ambition what so ever. They are happy with Willian and Pedro.  Ffs i want even with Hazard staying another top winger like Pepe,  Chiesa or Lozano and would still expect CHO to play regularly. Plus Pulisic. City has Mahrez, Sterling, Sane, Silva and I don't see any issues there.

Im convinced he will stay at least until the end of the season. We are already in end of February, early March.

I think a lot will depend on Sunday. While I don't think that a loss will end up in sack, but I think another 4/5/6-0 fiasco just might do it

[Special Juan 28,133]

He won't make it until this time next week, we will be beaten easy on Sunday and he will be gone. February into March doesn't matter, his time is up here.

Last night was just delaying the inevitable.

The words on the official site state "We are using him in the right way" So from Sarri earlier in the season on this lad we have had "He isn't ready" to "He's ready to compete with Willian and Pedro" all this with limited appearances in the league, loads of time on the bench. And people wonder why we are disillusioned with Sarri. Nobody can tell me this lad is worse than either Pedro or Willian, not a chance. I said before I think Sarri scared to use players out of his circle of trust, unless he is forced into it due to injuries/suspensions. He's used Emerson and CHO in what I call the 'safe' games, the games we are expected to win.

There is also this quote "so it’s not easy for a young player to play with consistency like his team mates" So he's telling us the lads have been consistent? The only player who's been a model of consistency is Kante. Yet we are told constantly he has to be patient? I think CHO has been more than patient in all honesty, not only patient but he's actually looked really good and scored goals.

I can't fathom this bloke out in all honesty.
