A win and a game to rack in on your European unbeaten run during a time like this is a big lift for the players, manager, and fans.

The London side won their Europa League fixture with ease on Thursday evening with a 3-0 victory over Swedish side, Malmo. The aggregate score was 4-1 to Chelsea after the two legs.

This gives the manager a night where he can rest easy and enjoy his sleep. However, as soon as he wakes up in the AM, he will be sweating in his draws thinking about what can be done to stop Pep Guardiola and Man City team.

He’s completed the job during the two’s first meeting of the season. So it’s not impossible. Maybe Call Roy, Claude, or Rafa for help? I would! They’d be my best mates now. What makes Sarri sweat more on the job? There are many reports pointing at the exit doors in London all in the event of this intense fixture.
