How long can Sarri last after that. 2-0 at Arsenal, 4-0 at Bournemouth and 6-0 at City.

 

He must be the only man in the world who would move a double Premier League winner and World Cup winner from his best position and not correct it after it not working.

I don't subscribe to the Kante criticism. Kante is an average, at best, player -- although a machine when it comes to winning the ball back -- therefore I wouldn't be trying to find his best position, I'd look to build the squad around better players. He's at his best in a two; anything else and he struggles. There are solutions, but I wouldn't change my whole system for him.

 

I think there's something wrong with that Chelsea squad. How many times are they going to 'down tools'? I thought it was Mourinho third-season-syndrome, but then they down tools under Conte, and now I feel like they're doing it again.  

 

They need to stick with a manager and rebuild. I'm not sure Sarri is the one, because he's too idealistic.

The big mistake managers make when playing a far superior side is to try and play the same way as their betters best to play to your own lads strengths.

He's worth it too.... well, when compared against other top earners in this day and age... none of them are worth that amount of wage, but you get what I mean :D

But Sarri's system isn't working.  When something isn't working, fix it.  He can't bring in new players so he has to go with what he has - so why not then play Kante beside Jorginho to allow Kante to be the legs ?
