Chelsea manager, Maurizio Sarri, has accepted
that he and his players, are to blame for
Saturday’s 2-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier
League.
Alexandre Lacazette and Laurent Koscielny
scored the goals in the first half, as the Gunners
claimed all three points at the Emirates.
The Blues finished the game with only one shot
on target and hardly troubled Unai Emery’s team,
despite having superior possession.
“From a technical point of view
both teams were on the same
sort of level, but they had a
higher level of determination
in both penalty areas, so tactics
don’t come into it.
“I can’t possibly say I am not
partly responsible for the
defeat. We have to share it.
“This is not a team that is
going to be well known for its
battling qualities, but we need
to become a team that is
capable of adapting, possibly
suffering for 10 or 15 minutes,
and then playing our own
football. Today we didn’t play
our own football,” Sarri told
Chelsea’s official website.
