Former English football legend Rio Ferdinand believes that Jorginho's presence in the heart of the London "Chelsea" team does not give them any advantage. Playing in the defensive midfielder position, Jorginho, like the entire "Chelsea" team, is not having the best season. The "Blues", who paid 57 million euros for the Italian, expect more, as the defender disappoints with his defensive abilities. Nevertheless, Maurizio Sarri does not believe that N'Golo Kante is suitable to play in the defensive midfielder position, as he needs a player of a "regista" type. "Jorginho is the one who sets the pace in matches. You give him the ball in the middle and he deals with it very well," said R. Ferdinand on the "BT Sport" show. "But let's look at how many key passes he made this season? Around 2000 passes, but none of them were decisive. He is also not a good defender. It's not the first time this season that he has been passed by opponents. He simply cannot keep up with the rivals," added the defender. Jorginho has played almost without substitutions this season, so M. Sarri wants to bring another midfielder into the team - Nicolo Barella or Leandro Paredes.
