Sarri Should Have Forced Kepa Off : Terry

-

John Terry believes Maurizio Sarri should have forced Kepa Arrizabalaga off after Chelsea's goalkeeper refused to be substituted in the Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City. City retained the trophy courtesy of Sunday's 4-3 penalty shoot-out success, Raheem Sterling scoring the winning kick after a tense goalless draw at Wembley. But the true drama had come at the end of extra time when Kepa, who had already received treatment for what appeared to be cramp, went down for a second time. Kepa's act of defiance left Sarri furious, with Chelsea's head coach heading towards the tunnel before returning to the touchline. And Chelsea legend Terry, currently Dean Smith's assistant at Aston Villa, insisted that Sarri should have done more to ensure that Kepa left the field. "I think [it leaves Sarri] in a tough place, I'm surprised he didn't come on and force him to come off," Terry told Sky Sports. "If I'm the manager there, yo...

Injury-Stricken Man Utd Hold Sluggish Liverpool

Liverpool returned to the Premier League summit despite being held to a 0-0 draw by bitter rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford in a match that was marred by first-half injuries to four players.    After days of anticipation and excitement, the match swiftly descended into farce in the first period, as Ander Herrera, Juan Mata, Roberto Firmino and Jesse Lingard were all forced off injured, and the match struggled to recover from an entertainment perspective.    The medical staff were rather less busy in the second half and that allowed Liverpool to increase the pressure, generally dominating against a United effectively playing with 10 men due to Marcus Rashford struggling with a knock. But the Reds could not take advantage, with United arguably happy to hold on to the draw which sees Ole Gunnar Solskjaer set a new record points haul for a manager in his first 10 Premier League games, taking him on to 26 points.

Hazard Reaches PL Milestone for Chelsea

Eden Hazard reached a major milestone for Chelsea during Sunday’s trip to Fulham after he became only the third player in the club’s history to score and assist 50 Premier League goals. The Belgium international provided the set-up for Jorginho to net the decisive goal in a 2-1 victory at Craven Cottage, clocking up a half-century of assists in the top flight. It means Hazard – who has also found the back of the net on 81 occasions – has had a hand in 131 goals in the Premier League since he joined from Lille in 2012. The 28-year-old has already reached double figures for goals in a single season for the fifth time at Chelsea, needing only four more to equal his personal best of 16 in the league, which he achieved in the 2016-17 campaign. The feat means that he joins a select club in Blues history, with Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba the only other men to have managed such an achievement with the club.
