Chelsea concerned and disappointed about the team’s performances this season. Senior figures at Chelsea have held discussions about Maurizio Sarri’s future, according to Sky Sports.
The Blues are sixth in the table, with chances of finishing inside the top four now diminishing with every passing game. They are yet to face Manchester United and Liverpool away from home.
According to the report, Roman Abramovich met with Marina Granovskaia after the game to discuss Sarri's future, we could well see a new manager at the Chelsea game after the international break.
The most viable path currently for life after Sarri seems Steve Holland, who is part of Gareth Southgate's England setup. He has also worked as a deputy of Andre Villas-Boas, Jose Mourinho, Rafa Benitez and Antonio Conte.
There is very little chance that Laurent Blanc joins Chelsea mid-season, if Sarri gets the sack.

everyone is clamouring for Serri to be sack, if every coach that comes to Chelsea is having the same challenges then the better truth is that the coaches aren't the issue. The major problem is the management and the players. Our players are performing really bad! Serri should be allowed to do his thing!

English Premier league doesn’t hv time for those things do u guys watch man city Liverpool , spurs, etc they don’t hv time to be passing the ball at the back or to one person just one pass game over everyone is attacking I love what Hudson odoi did wn he came in it was like hazard wasn’t there again.... Chelsea always waiting for hazard to do something playing kante as attacking midfield? Come on if u are not going to put him back to his position just bench him jorgi can’t even get pass one player and can’t defend Barkley don’t even know what he was doing the midfield can’t hold the ball no chemistry strikes waitin for hazard, defense is upon Alonso no need to talk about that one ....azip ... can’t get pass one player and we let Moses go higuain can’t even imagine what his doing there Pedro no target man so no breaking through that Xi is useless

Managers can’t be blamed at all the time...those players are only in for the money because they get paid whether they win or loses

Caution Chelsea, caution. Don't be too hasty to give Sarri the boot, after all, he was the ideal man when you signed him. My point, back him and let him build a team worthy of the Chelsea badge. [Comeon]

Oh so now sarri is now playing sorri ball. For me, ma problem is Y Emerson on bench and Alonso on filled? because Alonso that we know at first is no more, and Y am my saying this?Is because he doesn't have physical speed,strength and even as well as stamina. Moreover,sarri should bare in mind that he's de one holding the team #CHELSEA now.Meaning he is responsible for the team to be come huge,more as compare than Baca,Rema and rest of the big teams we knew. Fairmore,de coach'sarri',should start with de young ones meaning de upcoming young stars.On like Odoi,Emerson n de rest of de upcoming young stars on bench dat we never seen them on pitch before. THANK U

I agreed with you that other managers were sacked for not doing the right things and Sarri does not have plan b. But we have to understand that he needs time to get adjust. The Premier League is though. City gave Pep time to adjust. The players have played together for almost three seasons. That's why makes City strong. I also agreed with you that Kante is not a attacking mid fielder. I would prefer Kante playing deep in mid field than in attack. Because he has the abilities to press and defend. Jorgihno is not perfect in defend. Sarri needs to send him in attack and change his tactics and styles in every game that Chelsea will play. But I can promise you that Chelsea will be in the big four and also win the Europa cup. From: Teah Manning. Liberia.

Chelsea set up as a whole is not a conducive environment for progress. We can't keep on blaming the coaches. Even if they swop Sarri and Pep guadiola. Pep will fail and Sarri will prosper with City. When they hired Conte it was a hype because Conte had reached Euro finals with Italy. Same applies to Sarri when he broke the monopoly with Napoli in France by playing entertaining football. Napoli was lethal under Sarri. So this thing of pointing the fingers at the coaches is not the way forward. Look at Barcelona for example everytime when they change the coaching staff they don't go for high profile coach but still their team always deliver.

sarri is stubborn odoi is good and you bench him and play this wack and old player like pedro nonsense coach if we did not sack this man we won't win the europa and actually he is curse with trophies he should go and be pundit at Italy rather than he wasting our time and young players here Sarri doesn't build anything he doesn't know how to build a player Conte was good for us look at how he build alonso, moses, christesian and kante sarri is not not not like that nonsense!! every day mentality the next day strange the next day we play very well 55 minutes and the remaining minutes loose doesn't have any idea
