Guus Hiddink may be 72 but he would be a safe pair of hands for Chelsea

When fans turn on their manager, the writing is on the wall. The atmosphere towards Maurizio Sarri during Chelsea’s defeat by Manchester United was vitriolic.

I cannot recall the last time Chelsea supporters sang, ‘You don’t know what you’re doing’ to one of their managers. This is not a handful of disgruntled fans. The crowd has turned.

How can the club have any faith in Sarri going into a Carabao Cup final against a Manchester City side who battered Chelsea 6-0 only a fortnight ago? It is time to install a caretaker until the end of the season.
