Jorginho passes his way to new Premier League high but can't help Chelsea past West Ham

Jorginho encapsulates the Sarri-ball revolution at Chelsea, with the Blues midfielder hitting a new Premier League high with his passing game against West Ham.

The new man in charge at Stamford Bridge is looking for his team to dominate opponents and wear them down with clever movement and slick interplay.

That philosophy was on display once more during a derby date with the Hammers on Sunday.

Jorginho is very much Chelsea’s playmaker-in-chief, with the Italy international charged with the task of setting the tempo.

He had the midfield engine room ticking over at the London Stadium, with 180 attempted passes across 90 minutes.
