After Chelsea’s Europa League semi-final win over Eintracht Frankfurt, the Blues’ players found it really hard to convince their manager to attend a special event with them later.
First it was Cesar Azpilicueta who had a go convince him but Sarri replied: “No, I can’t, I have to work.”
It was David Luiz who tried next and he said in Italian: “Boss, you can’t miss it.” But Sarri still stood firm and said he won’t come because he has work.
Emerson tried next and said: “Mister, look into my eyes: you have to participate in our evening.”
But Sarri dropped a savage bomb on Emerson and said: “Well done, you and Jorginho that you didn’t help qualify for the World Cup.”
Emerson replied: “Mister, but I was injured, I had broken my knee in Roma-Genoa, the day of Totti’s farewell.”
Funnily enough, Sarri said: “Excuses, excuses. You did not bring us to the World Cup.”
