Sarri Locks Up Chelsea Players for Hour-Long Inques

By Admin

Maurizio Sarri kicked his coaching staff out of the dressing room and locked the door as he spent an hour talking with Chelsea's players after a 4-0 away defeat to Bournemouth.

Chelsea are three points worse off than they were this time last season and slipped below Arsenal in the table on goal difference - Charlie Daniels' 95th-minute header putting the cherry on that particular cake.

Wednesday marked Sarri's third inquest in his short reign as boss, after doing so following losses to both Tottenham and Arsenal in the league.

He left the media waiting for over an hour but eventually conducted all his contractually obliged post-game duties, as he detailed what he spoke about with his players.

“In that moment I wanted to talk with them alone, without anybody else. As I said before, I needed to understand. It's impossible to play in such a different way between the first and second half. I don't understand why," Sarri said.

"I want to try again tomorrow because we want to solve the problem," the Italian continued. "We have only to say sorry to our fans. We can lose, of course, in every match, but not in this way. We need to solve the problem. We need to understand where the problem is."
