Sarri But Not Sarri Thread

[Fernando 6,454]

Yes like I said that whole kepa situation saved sarri job. 

Now he will stay till next season and we can have some stability. 

I actually expect next season to improve a lot. 

Hopefully the club does some good business this summer.

Yeah during the games i watch them instead of calling our manager stupid things on a forum for Chelsea fans.

What is he beeing duplicitous about? Emerson and Alonso? Emerson played 210 minutes last 2 games. He could need a rest since he is quite injury prone. I'm sure we'll se him play 90 minutes against Fulham. 

No i don't. I could see our rivals calling Sarri a cunt on redcafe or rawk during the games but not here or at any other Chelsea forum. It's just horrible. And it's not about Sarri but about every Chelsea manager or player. Well yeah, except for Courtois i guess. 

[Vesper 28,781]

CHO, the whole GK nightmare, not even having Emerson on bench (we had ZERO fullbacks if one went down) etc etc.

But we won so everything I say is rot.

Cheers

PS if you are going to have a go at every single Sarri bash on the board, you are going to be busy for weeks, and not many are my posts.

1 shot on target though....

Jeepers. Sarriball feels like Mourinhoball most of the time!

F Sarriball. Should have scored 5 against Spurs. They are tired after all after playing Burnley. 

[Jase 43,479]

Fair play.

Ironically I think Kepa disaster helped him. Club fined Kepa which means they supported Sarri on this issue. And now he have more power in the dressing room. We are in good position to achieve our goals this season and if club gives Maurizio what he wants in the summer I'm positive he can work out very well here and give as full transition of style for what was he appointed in the first place.

Things will go one of two ways now i feel.

We will either build on this, take advantage of the kind fixtures between now and the seasons end (bar two games) and consolidate top 4 or these few days are a brief stay of execution and things go downhill again ala AVB post Valencia/City.

Agree the one difference in circumstances where I hope it isn't a false dawn however is that the last two games have shown some promise that Sarri is prepared to compromise at times to get the result over the performance (something I feel AVB never showed).

Hopefully the tide is turning and his stubborn nature is eroding a little. He must know that this season for him is a matter of survival. If he can survive and oversee what could be a very busy summer for the club if the ban is deferred, he has an opportunity to bring in a few more players more suited to his style for next season to push on. 

I couldn't see a way back for him personally before the cup final, but the last two games have given me some renewed hope that he can still be a success here.

I'm actually on the opposite view with AVB, he basically said fuck it and abandoned his style for Valencia/City and reverted to default type. It worked for those two games but ultimately cost him because after those games he couldn't get his message across again and we played like a team trying to do both default style and AVB style and ended up with a disjointed mess that couldn't string two passes together.

We beat and basically dominated Spurs. The first 30 minutes were probably the best 30 minutes of football we have played in the League this season but yet people are still moaning about shots on target.....smh!

Yeah, I don't understand either... 

This is not a normal season anymore and it's been a total circus for the past months. Still we've been the better side v City in the Cup Final and now beat Spurs after 120+ minutes of football just three days ago and a heartbreaking penalty shootout. Plus all the negativity surrounding the club after the Kepa incident.

Not a lot of shots of target, but did not concede either against one of Europe's best teams atm and a very good Spurs side. 

You can't expect everything to be ok at the club when it is not. Normal people lose their interest in their job as soon as their bosses raise their voice a bit, now imagine football players in this toxic environment at Chelsea for the past months... 

Hope we're on the right path again and build on these last two performances.
