Maurizio Sarri reacts to Chelsea's performance versus West Ham United
Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has highlighted that he is pleased to come out with a draw during his side's Premier League encounter against West Ham United on Sunday.
The Blues had gone into the derby with a perfect start in the top-flight but they could only manage a point from the game with the Hammers defence standing firm.
Speaking after the match, Sarri was appreciative of the efforts put forward by the opposition and believes the Hammers should be placed further ahead than the table suggests.
He added that his side played well during the second half, in particular, and he is content to have come out of the game with a point to continue the recent progress.
"I think we have played well in the second half, but it's impossible to win every match and a point is OK today. We need to move the ball quicker and we need more movement without the ball," he said via Metro.
With the stalemate, the Blues have dropped to third in the standings with 16 points, two behind leaders Liverpool, whom they face in both the League Cup and Premier League in the next seven days.
