Left-back Emerson Palmieri has called on Chelsea fans to support Maurizio Sarri as players work to improve their performances this season.
Popular character among some sections of the fan base, the Brazlian has been up to here the second choice of the Spanish international Marcos Alonso.
He joined the Blues last year in the January transfer window and celebrated his one-year anniversary with the club last month.
Before moving to England, he spent three seasons and a half in Italy, having played for Roma and having been loaned with Palermo.
The 24-year-old made his professional breakthrough at Santos, the Brazilian team where Pele, Robinho and Neymar made their first steps in the senior match.
After defeating Malmo in the Europa League (2-1), he preached patience after a series of mediocre results that led Chelsea to heavy defeat in the Premier League, a defeat 6-0 against Manchester City.

The next step for the Blues is a clash against the FA Cup with Manchester United on Monday night before the return leg of their European match, the final of the Carabao Cup against City and a Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
"We still have a lot of important games in this month," said Emerson. "We must strive to react in the best possible way to every game.
"I'm sure we're going in the right direction, and even if we have a final to play, we have to think case by case."
