'He needs to get better at that': Robert Sanchez told to work on crucial aspect of his game

Speaking to BBC Sport, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink said: "I'm a little bit unnerved by Robert Sanchez in Chelsea's net.

"He hasn't played for a long time. He doesn't play regularly. He takes a lot of time when the ball comes back to him

"He needs to get better at that. He's taking a little bit too much risk and too much time. The only defence I can give him is he got injured.

"He's lost his place in the team, and he wants to come show he's better than the other one. But he's not showing that at the moment."

Sanchez did himself no favours with his display against Leicester City at the weekend, conceding twice in the 4–2 win in the FA Cup quarter-final.

24-year-old Djordje Petrovic has featured in 19 games across all competitions for the Blues so far this season due to Sanchez's injuries, performing well.
