Chelsea fans call for Sarri to be sacked as City run riot at Etihad

Livid Chelsea fans have taken to social media to vent their fury at manager Maurizio Sarri after Manchester City spectacularly scored four first-half goals in the space of 19 minutes.

Raheem Sterling opened the scoring after four minutes at the Etihad before Sergio Aguero added a quick-fire brace before the 20-minute mark.

Chelsea's misery in the first half was compiled when Ilkay Gundogan beat goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga from distance to send fans online into meltdown.
