Confused Chelsea, Tottenham show: Italian papers react to Sarri’s defeat and reveal worst Blues player

25 nov 2018

Tottenham taught a lesson to Chelsea. That’s what most of the Italian papers write about Chelsea’s 3-1 defeat against Tottenham yesterday. “The Blues didn’t even show up for the show of Tottenham”, writes La Gazzetta dello Sport that highlights the words of Sarri after the game.

The Italian tactician has only lost two games since his arrival in England, both at Wembley. “I don’t like this stadium”, Sarri said.

“It’s like the Olimpico in Italy, too dispersive.

Il Corriere dello Sport, writes “Sarri ko” adding that the defeat of the Blues at Wembley is ‘totally deserved’.

Chelsea lose their first game in Premier League this season and are now sitting in fourth place. Premier League is great and cruel, writes Gabriele Marcotti on Il Corriere dello Sport.

Both Tuttosport and La Gazzetta dello Sport hit out at Rudiger who is rated 4.5/10 by both papers: “Crushed by Son and Kane, run the risks of being sent off in the second half”.
