Jorginho reveals Maurizio Sarri's strange superstition performed during Chelsea's unbeaten run

Chelsea kept their unbeaten start to the Premier League season alive with their 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. Midfielder Jorginho has assumed a key role for Blues boss Maurizio Sarri and he knows him so weel that he knows all about his superstitions, including one really odd one. "It’s really easy to understand him you know," Jorginho explained to Chelsea TV prior to Sunday's fixture. "The way he seems - that’s how he is. He has no secrets. He’s a simple guy. He has his beliefs, his superstitions. Everyone does. "For example, he won’t touch the match ball ever. Even if we’re losing, the ball goes out and we need to get the ball back in play as fast as possible, he won’t go near it. No way – he won’t touch it. "Then there are other things too, but that’s normal, no?"
