Sarri finds himself in troubled waters, as some players at Chelsea are under-performing

#2 Gary Cahill

Cahill has made just cup appearances for Chelsea this season

It is rather difficult to believe that Gary Cahill is still the Chelsea captain, as he has been out of the first team picture at the club for so long that you would be forgiven for thinking he has been sold off.

The last two seasons have not gone particularly well for Cahill, as he lost his starting spot to Andreas Christensen in Conte's second season in charge, while Maurizio Sarri has preferred a defensive pairing of David Luiz and Anthony Rudiger.

So far this campaign, Cahill has made just one Premier League appearance, as it looks increasingly clear that he has no place in the plans of Maurizio Sarri.

With Cahill's contract set to expire at the end of the season, it is highly unlikely that it would be renewed and the time might be right for the Englishman to call it quits on his seven-year trophy-laden Chelsea career.
