Aside from an attempt by Hazard which hit the post, and a low, scorching shot by Higuain that was really well saved, Chelsea's starting line-up often fell back into the boring and predictable Sarri-ball noodling around the area.
The team thrashed Dynamo Kiev the other day with crosses from the wing which Giroud headed in, not all this farting around the box. I put the latter down to Sarri.
Unfortunately Giroud, Hudson-Odoi and Loftus-Cheek, were kept on the bench and came on far too late as subs. That's another Sarri specialty - he continues to use starting players even if Chelsea have gone behind and aren't scoring.
I watched the game on NBCSports. A pundit said Chelsea had a complete monopoly of the ball in the first half, but it was a waste of time because they didn't keep attacking with it.
We're doing okay in the Europa League Cup, but have thrown away our chance of getting into the PL top 4.
Maurizio 'Waste of Time' Sarri should be sacked. At lease one newspaper thinks he might go during the international break this coming week.
