Chelsea boss Sarri loving the Premier League: Every game a party

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri admits he's at a disadvantage in the Premier League.

Sarri concedes he knows little about his opposition teams.

He said, "I know less about the teams I face and the opponents. So at the beginning to understand it all, was not so simple..."

Sarri also told Il Mattino: "But here it is totally different: it is an absolute party, it is a pleasure to arrive in the stadiums and see the fans with different shirts that take a beer together.

"I sign autographs for the fans of the opposing team on the sideline, before and after the match. There are games with so much intensity, physicality. The English one is a different football from the Italian one, played in extraordinary stadiums."
