Since I missed this game and lots people mentioned Jorginho. Is he that bad? I thought his performance has major dropped off, not surprised for a new non physical player in epl. It usually happens because no winter break.

You can throw me all these examples of managers like Mourinho, Klopp or Pep being given time, but all these 3 managers have a big thing in common. They are successful and win trophies, and plus they are young. They are all proven at the highest level. 

Sarri, on the other hand, is a very old manager, stubborn, has never won anything in his long life, managed only 3 years of top level football prior. He has no plan B in any of the games. His system is flawed and looking like it is ineffective in English football. He is playing our best 2 players in the team, out of position, on a regular basis, despite no benefit. He has already criticised the players in his 1st season and looks like the players aren't motivated anymore to play under him. Sarri even publicly said he can't motivate these players, Now having said all this, does this sound like a manager that can bounce back and be successful here? 

I sometimes wonder what our board were thinking when they hired Sarri. A 60 year old, with ONLY 3 years of experience at the top level and never won trophies. This is just like the Scolari appointment all over again. It was clear as day that we needed rebuilding after Conte, so we needed a YOUNG experienced manager to take over from us, like Klopp, Pep, Emery, etc.  

Klopp finished 8th in his first season worst then brendan Rodgers

Sarri is intelligent enough to see that Kante doesn't have the ability to be a holding midfielder. Kante still does a job in a more advanced role and has scored some crucial goals. His pressing is vital for us in that area of the pitch.

We replace our full backs with proper footballing fullbacks, have a creative LCM and RW, no one will give an arse where Kante is. 

Don't get it twisted. Jorginho was phenomenal for us up until November. It is clear as day he needs competition and rotation. 

Jorginho and Sarriball has been sussed out by the rest of the EPL. I am not saying to play Kante as a regista. I am saying to put him back into a trad DMF role and change the formation. Sarri's version of the 4 3 3 has been utterly exposed.

I remember both Leicester and Everton spanking City in Pep's first season as well. Not to mention drawing a shit ton of games they should of been winning.

Pep never had a run of games like this, Pep is a vastly superior coach to Sarri, very flexible and a tactical genius, a proven massive champion with a shit tonne of trophies to back that up,and Pep has had an EPL club that has backed him to a huge degree. We are losing our best player more than likely and have, literally, the worst board in the top 20 teams in the world. We are miles below Shitty and the Victims atm, and there is zero plan to take us back to their level.

They still got beaten by Newcastle- would you have predicted that? 

It's about desire and hunger- Pep is a great manager but even sometimes he cannot motivate his team to success - but at least the players try.

Our players don't even try (with a few notable exceptions)

All are to blame. The board, players, and Sarri.

This I can agree on

It's a manifestation or culmination of lots of issues.

We need Footballing prowess in the upper echelons of management at Chelsea and fast
