IF BUCK TURNS UP HE’LL JUST RING THE CHANGES

BRUCE BUCK is a charming fellow. Chelsea’s chairman is not, however, the face his manager wants to see at the back of a press conference. Maurizio Sarri is new to the political world of Stamford Bridge, but the rest of us have seen this played out many times before. Sarri would have brighter long-term prospects if that girl from the horror film ring turned up. Buck is not the sort to take an interest if it’s all going swimmingly.
