Maurizio Sarri needs patience from Chelsea, says Gianfranco Zola

Gianfranco Zola has called for new Chelsea head coach Maurizio Sarri to be given time at the club to provide what is expected.

Zola played for the Blues between 1996 and 2003 and has returned to Stamford Bridge as assistant first-team coach.

“As long as the people at the club supports the club, have a little bit of patience with him I’m sure they will get what they are expecting,” he told the club’s website.

“I like the way his teams play football. They are very organised, very good defensively but also play very good football. I’ve always liked coaches that promote this type of football.”

The Italian feels Sari’s methods will be a good fit for the club.
