Dropping just six points in the league so far, Chelsea have acclimatized well to Maurizio Sarri’s philosophy. Whilst still attempting to get to grips with how the incoming boss wants to play, the Chelsea squad have more than matched title contenders Liverpool and Man City’s scintillating start to the season.
Bringing in his former ally from Napoli in Jorginho, it has given the side more control in possession and are able to dominate games for sustained periods of time through ball retention. Playing within a set structure has allowed Chelsea undoubted jewel in the crown, Eden Hazard, to blossom in the early parts of the campaign. Given a license to roam has allowed the Belgian to find himself in more dangerous areas, where he can add more goals and assists to his game.
Perhaps due to being more expressive managers and are proven within Europe’s elite, Klopp and Guardiola have had years to adapt with their respective clubs. Before his stint at Napoli, Maurizio Sarri was largely unknown to the footballing world. Although he has managed nineteen clubs, with a managerial career spanning over twenty-eight years, a lack of trophies has hindered him from reaching the top sooner.
