Maurizio Sarri has been warned that his methods are not working at Chelsea, with Mark Schwarzer questioning the logic of a coach seeing his future called into question as he regularly criticises his players in public.

That was not the first time that he had accused those sent into action of allowing their individual and collective standards to drop below the expected level.
