'He's been angrier when we've won' - Chelsea players escaped a Sarri backlash after Spurs defeat, says Luiz


The Blues were comprehensively beaten by Tottenham on Saturday, but the Brazilian revealed the manager's reaction was not one of sheer anger
Maurizio Sarri has displayed more anger after Chelsea have won games than he did in the wake of Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Tottenham, according to David Luiz.
Chelsea produced their poorest performance of the season at Wembley, finding themselves trailing 2-0 after just 16 minutes thanks to goals from Dele Alli and Harry Kane.
Sarri labelled Chelsea's performance a "disaster", acknowledging he saw little way back after Kane's goal despite having 74 minutes left of the game.
However, David Luiz has revealed Sarri's unexpected post-match reaction, with the Italian apparently calmer than after some of Chelsea's wins this term.
"He has been, many times, angrier when we've won," the defender told reporters. "It's true. Nobody is happy, of course, the coach is not happy.
"He always tries to do his best for us, and we try to do our best for him. Of course, he's not happy like every single player is not happy.
"But I think it's good for us to understand – to remind us – that the Premier League is never easy. It's not easy to win any game.
"Like I said, we didn't play well. We played really badly, we didn't have the same intensity as in the other games.
The Brazilian defender produced a well-below par performance against Spurs, but he is already looking ahead to a Europa League clash with PAOK Salonika on Thursday.
The Blues are back in Premier League action three days later in a London derby against Fulham and Luiz hopes they can secure three points to close the gap on their title rivals.

'They must like me a little bit!' - Pulisic excited for Chelsea move, but focused on Dortmund

The winger recently completed a major move to the Premier League, but he's focused on success in Germany first Christian Pulisic is thrilled to be joining Chelsea, but the winger insists he's focused on Borussia Dortmund's pursuit of trophies most of all. The American winger will join Chelsea this summer after completing a €64 million (£57.6m, $73.1m) deal to join the Premier League club. Pulisic says he is undaunted by the fee and, although he is excited about the eventual move, he's only worried about his current club for the time being. "For [Chelsea] to do this and to want me this much I think yeah they must like me, at least a little bit," Pulisic told ESPNFC. “I've said I'm very excited," he added. "I'm really happy with the decision, but there is a time where I have to put it in the back of my head now, once the season gets going.
