Ominous signs for West Ham supporters tonight…

Interesting scenario tonight for Blues boss Maurizio Sarri: a Monday night fixture followed by a Europa League quarter-final first-leg in Prague on Thursday. Is he resting Willian, Pedro and Giroud for that trip, or is his focus completely on three points tonight which would send his team to third in the table on 66 points?
Maybe it hasn’t been such a bad season after all…
