Chelsea train hard ahead of second clash with Liverpool this week

Maurizio Sarri has Chelsea working hard in training as they prepare to face Liverpool for a second time this week

Maurizio Sarri has been pushing his squad to the limit in training this week as they prepare for their second match againstJurgen Klopp's Livrpool in four days. 
It was Chelsea who came out on top of the midweek Carabao Cup tie after Eden Hazard came off the bench and put in a world class display to turn the tides in their favour.
A world class goal by the Belgian earned Chelsea a dramatic 2-1 win late on. The winger will have to show something special again on the weekend, under a new lease of life with Sarri there's no doubt he's capable of it.

With Virgil Van Dijk potentially unfit for the gargantuan tie this weekend, Chelsea's forwards will be licking their lips. 
Both Chelsea and Liverpool are two of the three teams left in the Premier League yet to lose this season. Liverpool are the only team with a perfect record of six wins, another on Saturday would live the club their best start to a season ever.

Klopp's high press has worked a treat for him so far and Sarri will be all too aware that his players will have to work even harder than normal if they want to win a match which could play a huge part in this year's title race.
The tactical battle between the two managers will be fascinating but all eyes will be on Hazard and Mohamed Salah. The battle promises to be a special one which will surely be entertaining for any  football fan.

Tottenham Coach, Pochettino Lays Foundation For Real Madrid Job

Mauricio Pochettino has already laid the foundations for his departure from Tottenham as reports link him with the vacant Real Madrid manager's role, according to former Manchester United defender Gary Neville. Spurs lost 1-0 to Manchester City at Wembley on Monday , a result that leaves them fifth in the Premier League, five points behind Pep Guardiola's men. The club failed to spend any money whatsoever in the summer, not recruiting a single player, while the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea both spent over £100 million ($131.5m). The Reds and the Blues, along with City, are unbeaten thus far this season, with the title race likely to feature at least three key players. And Neville thinks that, eventually, Pochettino will want to join a club that can give him the resources he needs to compete at the very top of the game, whether that is in England or further afield as rumours persist that he could replace Julen Lopetegui at Santiago Bernabeu . "Pochettino has always...
