The Blues also boast the joint-best defensive home record in the league this season, keeping seven clean sheets in their last 10 top-flight outings at the Bridge and conceding more than one goal in a game on only two occasions all term.Statistics have not been enough to appease fans, though, and Sarri’s job could well rest on a season-defining run coming up that sees Chelsea face this London derby and then both legs of their Europa League quarter-final either side of a trip to Anfield next weekend.
Chelsea Key Man
The new boys are starting to make their mark for Chelsea, and it’s surely only a little bit of time before Sarri or someone gives them an extended run in the team. Ruben Loftus-Cheek scored one of the goals against Brighton, keeping up strong form he has shown just about every time he has played.
