IN PICS: SARRI WATCHES OVER CHELSEA TRAINING AS SQUAD TURN FOCUS TO UTD CLASH

Maurizio Sarri watched over his Chelsea players in training on Wednesday as pressure continues to mount on the Blues boss.


His side were held by Burnley on Monday night as they failed to capitalise on their top-four rivals all losing on the weekend.

One of their rivals are Manchester United who the Chelsea stars have turned their attention too since their disappointing 2-2 draw earlier in the week.


Gonzalo Higuain looked as though he was working hard at Chelsea's Cobham training base.

Kepa Arrizabalaga got down low to save a shot while captain Cesar Azpilicueta showed off his first touch.

Maurizio Sarri has been charged with misconduct following his dismissal from the touchline in the closing stages of Chelsea's draw against Burnley.


Sarri was sent off after venturing from his technical area to dispute a decision by referee Kevin Friend.

He had been locked in various arguments throughout the game with the officials and the Burnley bench.

Chelsea lodged a complaint with Friend after the match, claiming Sarri had repeatedly been the target of a racial slur from staff on the Burnley bench who are alleged to have shouted 's*** Italian'.


Sarri has until 6pm on Friday to respond to the FA charge and is expected to face a fine if it is proven.

The FA continues to investigate other incidents from the game between Chelsea and Burnley.
