Top Marcs for perfect Sarri
BUT BLUES BOSS DISMISSES TITLE BID
MAURIZIO SARRI continued his 100 per cent winning start in the Premier League with a thrilling win over Arsenal – then claimed Chelsea are not yet good enough to be title challengers.
Substitute Eden Hazard set up a late winner for defender Marcos Alonso after Arsenal bounced back from being 2-0 down in 20 minutes to level the match.
Sarri said: “No, we can’t challenge for the title, not yet. We did very well in the last 25 minutes, but we have to improve in the defensive phase, not just defenders – all the players.”
Real Madrid target Hazard said: “It’s better to be on the pitch than watching on the bench, but we have players who can do something magic, so I am just happy to win.”
And Arsenal boss Unai Emery (above) refused to be downbeat, saying: “We need to improve
things, but we had a lot of chances.”
