Chelsea's unbeaten start to the season came to an end on Saturday when they were thrash by Tottenham at Wembley.
One would say N'Golo Kante and Chelsea Italian midfielder Jorginho hard a difficult game as Tottenham midfielders were able to trap them down during the game.
Speaking on Monday Night Football, Jamie Carragher reveals Kante is a very average player in the position he is being played by Sarri and that Sarri needs to move him back to his fovourite position.
'Well number one: Jorginho is not moving from that position. He's Sarri's man, he's built his team around him,' Carragher said
'kante is not moving because he's signed a massive contract.'
'What I would say is Jorginho has been excellent this season. Teams are having to change their system and style to counter-act Jorginho. So that shows how important he is and how good he has been.'
'So if he's getting man-marked, as he was, by Dele Alli, [Gylfi] Sigurdsson, Juan Mata, that means there should be space for other players.'
'This is Chelsea. They have big players. The space was in the wide areas [against Spurs], so we want to see more from Eden Hazard, Willian, the full-backs.'
'The one thing about Kante is, he is a very average player in this [advanced] position he's playing now. I see a normal midfielder player,' He continued
'When he plays deeper, I see a world class midfield player.'
'What do you do? For me, I don't think this balance ever looks right. I think it's quite simple - whether or not Sarri is stuck on this 4-3-3 all the time. Play them as a midfield two and play Barkley, or Willian in front in more of a 4-2-3-1.'
