The aftermath of Chelsea's embarrassing loss at Bournemouth continues, with the Sun revealing that the manager was confronted by angry fans after that unforgettable loss.
The Blues traveled to the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday hoping to build on back-to-back wins in the Carabao Cup and FA Cup. Unfortunately, things turned out completely different, as the London giant was thrashed 4-0.
That defeat not only shattered the team's confidence but has also dented their top-four hopes, as Arsenal has now caught up with the Blues and are now level on points. The Italian boss kept his men in the locker room after the final whistle for a meeting but a number of disgruntled supporters waited for the tactician to emerge nonetheless.
The fans stopped the former Napoli boss as he was headed to his car in order to air their grievances. One man, in particular, called that performance from Chelsea "disgusting" and the "worst performance he has ever seen".
Sarri, meanwhile, exhibited class throughout this exchange, listening to their complaints while before apologizing to the fans. However, the manager knows change is needed if he wants the team to qualify for the Champions League.
The Gunners have caught up and Man United is hot on their heels in the race to finish in the top four. Gonzalo Higuain was recruited in January to help the team's lackluster attack but the Argentine failed to impress on his Premier League debut.
Next up for Hazard and Co. is a clash with Huddersfield on Saturday. The Stamford Bridge side must bounce back and respond in their upcoming home tie. Failure to win could spell disaster.
