Official: Maurizio Sarri Joins Juve After 1 Season
Whataloadofballacks replied to Sir's topic in The Chelsea Forum
Agree with this entirely. It wasn't all fans but there were enough booing at the Bridge to suggest it was a large number giving Sarri stick. Chelsea FC gets a lot of unfair stick but sometimes we (the fans and the club) don't help ourselves. Having said that, my guess is that the club is desperate to have a "long-term" manager but circumstances have made it impossible for the last 5 or so seasons. -
Better keep hold of those youngsters and loanees!

I know nothing about this. Was he done for manslaughter/causing death by dangerous driving? More likely it's just the worst case of a baseless defamatory statement I've ever seen. -

Pretty wrong that I burst out laughing at that. Classy. -

Is Alonso being booed by our fans? -

Like that sweet trick and pass to play the "offside" Hazard through at the weekend. That was right out of the top drawer. It's very frustrating. -

He said Sarri would be gone by 9am last Monday. Once they realised he was wrong the BBC gradually removed his article/quotes from the website. He's not the brightest and couldn't hit a barn door when he played for us! -

No, I was joking about Keane at Forest. I agree with you, I think. I'm not talking about kicking a boot or smacking him around. I'm talking about dealing with it in an appropriate way and one that preserves or improves the level of respect Sarri has in the dressing room. He must surely address it. As John Terry said in the post-match, he would expect the manager to address it. -

Isn't that part of the point, though? The media portrays Chelsea as a dressing room that struggles with "player power". I've always hoped that's not the case (at least, not worse than any other club with superstars). I'm not saying this proves it but whether or not there was a misunderstanding, the board came up. It doesn't look good and it looks like Kepa was disobedient. Hopefully Sarri's press conference was (sensibly) just trying to play it down so he can protect the player and that he will deal with it properly behind closed doors. Imagine if a Nottingham Forest player did that. Martin O'Neill would have the players zipping up the body bag for a team building exercise! -

Sarri says it was a misunderstanding with medical team. He almost sounds like he's taking the blame! -

It's possible but Sarri's reaction suggested otherwise. He was walking down the tunnel and it looks like he nearly walked out. -

Also, although Kepa made a save, he bottled the key one in the shootout. It's basically a guessing game and if you go the right way you have to make the save, unless it's a very powerful strike right in the corner.
