But Chelsea’s players will now get a lie in too as Maurizio Sarri continues his charm offensive. The new manager is keen to release the shackles after Antonio Conte’s rules and regulations saw him become unpopular as things turned sour. His to-the-minute training schedule was not a winner with the Stamford Bridge squad and they were quick to let their feelings be known. The Italian’s no-argument diet plan also was not wanted – so Sarri is attempting to earn some early brownie points by putting ketchup and other sauce back on the canteen menu. But the former Napoli boss has now allowed his players to start training in the afternoon so they can spend more time with their families, SunSport say. Sarri’s idea is to change the pre-existing regime and bring the team closer together. He is already winning round Eden Hazard, who has been heav...
