Mr Brazil was in the commentary box for talkSPORT for Monday nights game, and he said on Tuesdays Sports Breakfast: I was there, and fans were howling, they were booing they wanted to see [Olivier] Giroud or [Callum] Hudson-Odoi, they wanted to see a Plan B.The Chelsea players gave their all, in the first half they were very good, but Sarri wouldnt change it.Sharpe said: I can understand the fans frustration when youve got Giroud and Hudson-Odoi on the bench. He is trying to get away and Chelsea want to keep him, but they still won’t play him!At the moment it looks like if you stop Eden Hazard, you stop Chelsea. They dont seem to have a Plan B. When youre 2-0 down and youre bringing on a full-back for a full-back, it doesnt show a lot of ambition.He is stubborn, Sarri is very, very stubborn, Brazil added.Is that it, time up? Do you think the owners will decide its not working?Chelsea next face Malmo in the Europa League before meeting Manchester City in the EFL Cup final, just weeks after being thumped 6-0 by the defending Premier League champions.Chelsea star Eden Hazard looks dejected against Manchester City – will it be the same story in the EFL Cup final?2

And Sharpe replied: The EFL Cup final could be a big one, after getting beat by City 6-0 they need a reaction from that.It seems like the manger is upsetting the fans, hes a little bit two-dimensional with his formation and the way he wants to stick with it and hes not exactly endearing himself to people.Hes a pretty ruthless boss, Mr Abramovich, and Im not sure hell be putting up with it for much longer.
