Sarri But Not Sarri Thread

If he keeps that team as the basis for going forward I can get behind him again. So much better looking last night. Entertaining, slick passing, fight, passion and most importantly our academy boys playing in the same team from the start. Biggest annoyance for me is sarris refusal to play rubes and Callum as well as Christensen. Last night was a breath of fresh air. Hoping he starts playing the lads more

Don't change the winning team. Please. Everyone wants to see yesterday's starting XI against both West Ham and Liverpool.

Willian/Pedro, Kova/Barkley, Higuain and Alonso can play in the two Europa League games that are coming up

Im OK with losing every single game thats left this season with the team that faced Brighton yesterday, than winning with Alonso.

This dude is very smart. On the verge of getting sacked...then put two young english players in the starting XI. Bang. Won over fans and british press.

Tactics were exactly the same. Just fielded the players fans wanted to see against awful opposition.

We will struggle against better teams same as we have before. Still don't see top4 this time around, regardless who starts.

It was a bit of irony and probability/belief that something like that won't happen.  Anyways apology accepted

His head is still just above water though. A defeat/draw against West Ham with Alonso, Pedro and Willian will suddenly make him public enemy #1 again.

a defeat/draw against west ham even with CHO and emerson will make him public enemy again

Maurizio Sarri lookalike spotted on the timeline – and football twitter did it’s thing

https://www.chelsea-news.co/2019/04/sarri-lookalike-spotted-on-the-timeline-and-football-twitter-did-its-thing/

You’ve got to love football twitter sometimes. If you’re not the butt of their jokes, of course.

The unsuspecting victim in this case, who had a torrent of banter heading their way, was twitter user @Auroras_Smile – who doesn’t even appear to be remotely interested in the beautiful game.

Unfortunately for her, her partner, pictured below, looks insanely like Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri. The similarity is uncanny – it’s weird.

Of course, football twitter was fast to pick up on the lookalike, and some of the replies to the poor woman’s tweet were comedy gold.

Sarris biggest mistake was trying to change players to fit his Sarriball instead of adapting his Sarriball to fit the players at his disposal.

Yeah but even Guardiola adapted his style to fit the PL with Fernandinho for example who is more of destroyer than creator, something Guardiola always demanded from his DM. Because thats what you have to have in PL.

We play with Jorginho and our DM/CBs look like joke when we are countered. 

My point was that Sarri develops a team that will fit his style but also PL. Jorginho for example simply isnt suited best for that DM role because you have to be physical. We should have went for someone ala Rodri who is also good in defence and good distributor. But Sarri wanted to do the exact same thing with Jorginho in PL that he did in Serie A. He didnt consider the fact this is way more phyisical and faster league. Pep honestly dodged a bullet here.
