"Sarri is not that kind of manager, but I do not blame him, because you have so much pressure to win at Chelsea, you do not have time to curse young players." Pochettino has this luxury, as he know he's not going to get fired, in Chelsea you have eight months to get fired. "

"If you had said that they would be in that position at the start of the season, Sarri would probably have taken it in. This is not so serious. The problem is the mistakes that are going on." they have committed, and they have been heavily beaten in big matches, which is what cost them, and the most obvious mistakes are so obvious to everyone.
