'I worry about results, not the fans' – Chelsea boss responds to 'f*ck Sarriball' chants

Manchester United restricted Chelsea to just two shots on target as they dumped them out of the cup by a 2-0 scoreline, inflicting the Blues’ third defeat in five games.
However, the Italian says he is not concerned about the chants aimed at him by fans but rather is solely focused on winning matches.
“I am worried about the results. Not about the fans,” Sarri said after the game.

“Find more determination, more aggression, because we conceded the second goal without determination or aggression.
“I was worried when I was in League Two in Italy, but not now.”
