Maurizio Sarri says he ‘deserves’ to stay as Chelsea manager after beating Arsenal in Europa League final

Maurizio Sarri believes he ‘deserves’ to stay with Chelsea after guiding them to Europa League final success with a crushing 4-1 win over Arsenal.

The Italian claimed the first trophy of his managerial career as Chelsea won the competition for first time since 2013.

Despite finishing third in the Premier League and appearing in two cup finals, winning one, the former Napoli boss has faced considerable criticism this season.

There has been plenty of speculation over his Chelsea future in recent months and the 60-year-old is being tipped to succeed departing manager Massimiliano Allegri at Juventus next term.

However, after victory in Baku, Sarri, who took charge last July, feels he should be allowed to continue his role at Stamford Bridge.

“I need to talk to the club and make sure I know what I can do for Chelsea and what Chelsea can do for me,” said Sarri.

“I love the Premier League and I’m lucky I’m at Chelsea but at the end of each season you have to sit down and talk.

“In my opinion, I deserve to stay at Chelsea but my opinion is not enough.”

While Sarri was hinting at staying, Eden Hazard appeared to be bidding farewell netting twice in what looks to be his final game before moving to Real Madrid.

“I think it’s a goodbye,” he told BT Sport. “But in football you never know.

“My dream was to play in the Premier League. I think it’s time for a new challenge.

“I’ve made my decision. Now it depends on the clubs. Both clubs. “You will know in the next few days.”

Following Hazard’s admission, Sarri said he respected the player’s decision.

“Eden is an unbelievable player,” said Sarri. “You need two or three months to understand him as a man, but when you do, he is a wonderful man.

“I knew he wanted to leave, but I want to respect his decision.

Coventry City: EFL vote cancelled as League One side claim ‘groundshare agreement in place’

Coventry say an extraordinary general meeting to discuss their future has been cancelled after reaching a groundshare agreement.

The EFL had given Coventry until May 29 to reveal where they will be playing their home games next season, with the club still hoping to agree a deal with Gallagher Premiership side Wasps to extend their stay at the Ricoh Arena.

In a statement, Coventry said: “This groundshare is in place to make sure the club has somewhere to play in the scenario of a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena not being agreed.

“We can confirm that talks with the aim to achieve a deal to play at the Ricoh Arena are continuing between Coventry City Football Club, its owners SISU and Wasps Holdings Limited.

“Our focus and desire is to agree a deal at the Ricoh Arena – this is everyone’s preferred option, and the right option for Coventry City. While the back-up of a groundshare exists to ensure the future of the football club continues, another groundshare is not something anyone wants to happen.

“Details of the agreed groundshare and of our ongoing discussions with Wasps Holdings Limited remain confidential, due to mutually signed confidentiality agreements.

“We understand the frustration that fans are feeling, and have expressed to us, at not knowing where their club will be playing next season, not being able to plan for next season and supporting Mark Robins and the team, and the time that this is taking.

“We will provide a further update to supporters as soon as we are able to.”

The Football League has told Coventry they do not want them to be based any further than six miles from their current home.

Two options have been mooted, groundshares with either Birmingham, whose St Andrew’s stadium lies outside the six-mile radius, or Coventry Rugby’s Butts Park, which does not.

Chelsea news: Gary Cahill still targeting top level football in his new club as Stamford Bridge career comes to an end

Gary Cahill is not done with top level football just yet and insists there is plenty still left in the tank.

The defender played his final game for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday before his seven-year stay comes to an end this summer.

2

Cahill came on in the final minute of the 3-0 win against Watford, replacing David Luiz, but vowed there is more to come from him.

“I’m fit as a fiddle and ready to go. I’ve used the time I’ve not been playing wisely,” he told talkSPORT’s Jim White after the game.

“This chapter will close and another will open for me without a doubt, so I have a few more years left to play.”

Chelsea’s win guaranteed them a place in the Champions League next season and they currently sit in third place, one point clear of Tottenham, ahead of the final day of the season when they travel to Leicester.

However, Cahill has made just two substitute appearances in the Premier League this year, while he has played four Europa League matches.

2

There were no sour grapes from the 33-year-old, though.

“It has been a pleasure to play for the club and I’d like to thank the club for giving me the opportunity to play at the highest level,” he added.

“The memories I’ve made from this football club will live with me forever – they’re some of the best memories I’m going to have from football.”

And with a place in the Europa League final, a trophy he won in 2013, final still very much a reality for Chelsea, Cahill believes his team-mates deserve to end on a high.

“The effort the lads have put in during the last couple of months, they deserve to get their hands on some silverware, so plenty of work still to be done.”

How Borussia Dortmund could line-up next season with Chelsea starlet Callum Hudson-Odoi alongside AND without England team-mate Jadon Sancho

He may struggle to nail down a spot in the Chelsea first-team, but Callum Hudson-Odoi is a wanted man.

The 18-year-old made his England debut during their 5-0 trouncing of the Czech Republic on Friday night despite only earning his first call-up to the Under-21 side days earlier.

4

And there are even reports that Hudson-Odoi will start England’s second fixture in their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign at Montenegro – a match you can listen to live on talkSPORT, kick-off 7:45pm.

It’s therefore not surprising that some of Europe’s top clubs – including Liverpool, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund – have been linked with the youngster.

In fact, Bayern tried to sign the winger in January but had a £35million bid turned down by Chelsea, while rivals Dortmund are weighing up a move for Hudson-Odoi against their Bundesliga rivals, according to the Daily Telegraph.

Dortmund could have the upper hand as England youngster Jadon Sancho has thrived at the Westfalenstadion since leaving Manchester City in the summer of 2017.

4

However, if Hudson-Odoi does join Dortmund, it could lead to Sancho leaving with Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain very interested in him, The Sun claims.

As a result, talkSPORT.com have put together two possible Dortmund line-ups featuring Hudson-Odoi: one where he’d be playing without Sancho, and the other where the two England internationals are club team-mates.

You can see them, below…

---

Borussia Dortmund line-up with Hudson-Odoi but without Sancho

4

Dortmund usually play a 4-2-3-1 formation so Hudson-Odoi would slot into their style of play nicely.

If Sancho leaves then the Chelsea man would naturally replace his England team-mate on the right.

Christian Pulisic will be at Stamford Bridge by then so there would be no one really standing in Hudson-Odoi’s way as he looks to establish himself in the first-team.

Borussia Dortmund line-up with both Hudson-Odoi and Sancho

4

However, if Sancho stays then Dortmund could have a particularly lethal attack in the future.

Hudson-Odoi prefers to play on the left so he and Sancho could occupy both wings while the experienced Marco Reus would play in the No.10 role and Paco Alcacer would be up top.

There would be competition with Raphael Guerreiro for a spot on the left but if Hudson-Odoi can reach the standards that Sancho has set then he’ll have no problems making appearances.

Manchester United fan keeps his promise and gets tattoo of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s face inside a wheel

A Manchester United fan kept his word – and got a tattoo of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s face inside a wheel.

The Norwegian was named as permanent manager at the Red Devils in March after a successful caretaker spell that included a stunning last-gasp win over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

Getty

Results dropped off since his full-time appointment and they stuttered towards the end of the campaign, picking up just two points in the last five Premier League games.

This included an embarrassing 2-0 defeat to Cardiff City – who Solskjaer previously managed – at Old Trafford on the last day of the season.

One Norwegian United fan promised to get a tattoo of Solskjaer if they made it past PSG in the Champions League.

And Tor Henrik Stensland did not disappoint as he showed off the interesting artwork on Twitter.

He sent out a picture of his new ink with the tweet: “Ole’s at the wheel! Before the away game vs PSG i tweeted that if Man Utd went through I would tattoo Solskjærs face inside a wheel.

“Well, i’m a man of my words. I went all in. Here’s the result. Enjoy.”

He replied to the tweet that the angle of the picture makes the Manchester United manager looks like an elf.

Seemingly Tor isn’t full of regret then…

Chelsea: How Blues could line-up in Europa League final against Arsenal following Ruben Loftus-Cheek’s injury

Ruben Loftus-Cheek suffered an injury blow in Chelsea’s post-season friendly in America and is now unlikely to play in the Europa League final.

The midfielder picked up an ankle injury during the Blues’ 3-0 win over New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium.

Getty

Ross Barkley scored twice either side of Olivier Giroud’s header in the victory in Foxborough.

Prior to the game, manager Maurizio Sarri expressed his concerns about travelling to the US so close to a major European final.

Chelsea play Arsenal in the final in Baku on Wednesday, May 29.

Getty

5

He did name a strong starting line-up for the match with the likes of Eden Hazard, David Luiz and Pedro all starting.

Loftus-Cheek was seen leaving the stadium in a protective boot and he is facing a year on the sidelines if the injury is as bad as feared.

The 23-year-old has played a key role in the Blues’ Europa League success this season and scored in the second leg of the semi-final against Eintracht Frankfurt.

He has also been directly involved in nine goals in his past 15 competitive matches for the club.

His absence will be a big blow for Sarri in his preparations for the final, which is less than a fortnight away.

The manager is likely to be able to cope without starting Loftus-Cheek as he has only made six starts in the Premier League this season.

The England international has been a key impact player from the bench, though, and has netted six times in the league.

Getty

5

Another player Chelsea will be awaiting news on their fitness is midfielder N’Golo Kante.

The France international limped out of their final home game against Watford with a hamstring injury and missed the last two games.

Kante is expected to be fit for the final against Arsenal and he remained in London to receive treatment while his team-mates went to America for the friendly.

Here is how Chelsea could line-up without Ruben Loftus-Cheek in the Europa League.

Build My Lineup

5

There are unlikely to be any surprises for Maurizio Sarri’s side when they face Arsenal due to injury problems at certain positions and poor form elsewhere.

Centre-back pairing David Luiz and Andreas Christensen are his strongest with the injury to Antonio Rudiger keeping him out.

Getty

5

If Kante is fit then his is likely to play alongside Jorginho and Kovacic in midfield. Ruben Loftus-Cheek may have been pushing to replace one of those in the line-up had he not gone down with the injury but it will have made the decision for Sarri.

Ross Barkley scored twice in the charity friendly but he will likely be used from the bench.

It may also be the last we see of Eden Hazard in a Chelsea shirt with his move to Real Madrid is thought to be close.

Olivier Giroud is favourite at this stage to start up front against his former club with loanee Gonzalo Higuain struggling for goals since joining in January.
