I'm yet to be convinced by Chelsea under him tbh. Played largely dross since he was appointed and have loads of pointless possession.

Can see them getting done on the break today.
I agree to a point, I think they’re as dull as **** under this fella, but they look solid as well. I hope you’re right about today like.

Sarri II. He's using the same tactics, the same system, the same personnel to a large extent and getting the same performances.
Not the most entertaining and highly focused on possession, but it's effective.

Struggling to think of a more blatant one not given.
Really? I thought both players are chasing the ball, both with their arms in virtually identical positions and the ball has just bounced off Odoi. It’s not like he’s spread himself to try and block a shot and the ball was moving away from the goal, so it wasn’t a desperate attempt at an interception. It was a nothing incident and not worthy of a penalty for me.

It wasn’t desperate but what’s his hand doing there? I wouldn’t have a problem with that kind of incident being only worth of an indirect free kick but I don’t see how the ref can look at it and decide no offence has been committed.
