Chelsea fans boo Jorginho as pressure continues to grow on Sarri.
Jorginho Still struggling to impress at Stamford Bridge and he was on the receiving end of more criticism despite beating Malmo
Chelsea fans continued to boo Jorginho throughout the side's Europa League victory over Malmo in the Europa League on Thursday night.
The Blues cruised to victory over the Swedish side to advance to the last 16 of the Europa League.
However, the win wasn't enough to calm supporters as pressure continutes to mount on manager Maurizio Sarri as his summer signing continues to struggle influence games.
The midfielder joined the London club back in July from Napoli for a £57m (€65m/$86m) with the idea that the 27-year-old would become the main playmaker for the "Sarri-ball" style of football.
This has struggled to work to it's full potential this season, with pressure increasing on the Chelsea manager following embarrasing defeats to both Manchester City and Bournemouth.
Despite the club's victory over Malmo, fans continued to show their frustration at the style of football which revolves primarily around Jorginho.
The job speculation surrounding Sarri is only intensified by his reluctance to utilise hot prospect Hudson-Odoi more often, especially as his main summer signing continutes to flop.
The 18-year-old's qualities were evident in Chelsea's victory even more, with the winger bagging the club's third goal and ultimately securing their qualificaiton for the last 16 of the competition.
Hudson-Odoi didn't manage to fully materialise a move to Bayern Munich in the January transfer window despite multiple bids, and uncertainty still surrounds his long-term future.
Chelsea supporters also made their feelings known throughout the 90 minutes against Malmo, chanting: "Hudson-Odoi, we want you to stay."
Maurizio Sarri was quick to defend his player after the match, saying his absence was one of the reasons why his team were slow to start.
'In the first 30 minutes, we were in trouble to exit from our half, on pressing. With Jorginho, it would have been easier. I hope that our fans will be able to understand that Jorginho is very important.'
