Chelsea boss Sarri: I was happy to help Napoli beat Liverpool

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri insists he's always love Napoli.

Sarri says he has no problem with Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis despite the constant jibes.

He told Corriere dello Sport: “I see he continues to say all sorts of things about me… Do me a favour: let's just finish it with this whole argument. I will love Napoli and its fans for the rest of my life. I know what they think of me, how they think and when they think it. Always.

“Ours is a love that is unshakeable, eternal. The other night, I got so excited during Napoli 1-0 Liverpool. Excellent performance, to the last gasp. I declared, as a fan, that I was pleased to have tired Liverpool out a few days beforehand when they came to Stamford Bridge. The performance from Napoli was excellent.

“However, in Serie A there are no rivals for Juventus. When I used to say that, people thought I was just covering myself, yet they are already breaking away.
