Chelsea players hold crisis talks after Man City humiliation

Chelsea players held crisis talks amongst eachother at training on Monday.

After Sunday's 6-0 thrashing at Manchester City, The Sun says Maurizio Sarri's players arrived at their training complex in Cobham in the morning looking glum as they hope to bounce back in their Europa League clash with Malmo on Thursday.

And they took the chance to speak openly to each other behind closed doors about their current situation, which is on the verge of being labelled a crisis.

It is not known whether Sarri was part of the tense meeting - just a day after admitting his position in the Chelsea hot-seat could be on the line.

Sarri has been openly critical of his squad this season, questioning their mentality and desire on several occasions in an attempt to get a reaction.

But those comments have been linked with some poor performances in recent weeks, sparking concerns over regaining a Champions League spot this campaign.
