Maurizio Sarri is in hot water. The 2-0 loss at home against United in the FA cup round 5 hasn’t helped his case and the fans want him out.
Angry fans chanted “F*** Sarri-ball” and even sang “you’re getting sacked in the morning” at the Italian.
The vile chants increased in magnitude as the Italian manager subbed in Zappacosta while winger Hudson-Odoi remained warming the bench.
The ex-Napoli boss declared post-match: “I am worried about the results – not about the fans.”
What’s more surprising is that Sarri isn’t sensing the dissatisfaction among the Chelsea loyals over team selection and philosophy. Clearly, Sarri’s previously reknowned system knows as ‘Sarriball’ isn’t taking flight in the Premier League and Sarri’s first purchase Jorginho has not been influential so far.
Sarri added : “I can understand, because the result wasn’t really good. We are out of the FA Cup, so I can understand. But I am worried about the results.
“I could not hear what they were singing very well, but sometimes yes. I have never had that sung at me before, but there is always a first time.”
But asked whether he is worried about potentially being dismissed, the Italian said: “No. I was really very worried when I was in League Two in Italy. Not now.
“We were unlucky. Will I be given time? It’s not my problem.
“My problem is to start preparing for the next game. I think the players are with me. I am not sure, but I think so.
“My relationship with my players is good.”
