Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri: This is where we can still improve...

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri feels there's more to come from his players after victory at Southampton.

Saints were defeated by the unbeaten Blues, for whom Eden Hazard, Ross Barkley and Álvaro Morata were on target at St Mary's.

Sarri said, "We need to be able to be in control of the match. We can do better in the defensive phase, and sometimes also in the offensive phase.

"We did two or three counter-attacks wrong, four against three, or three against two, so we could do better."

Sarri acknowledged the travelling Blues who didn't stop singing throughout.

He added: "I am really very happy for our fans because our support today was excellent."
