At the start of his Chelsea adventure, Sarri has won four consecutive games with the Blues - the Argentinian the 11th manager appointed by Chelsea under the ownership of Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich.
The prize for most Premier League points won under Abramovich goes to José Mourinho (464), who won 140 games as head coach of the Blues, with a 66% win percentage. There are though, Sarri aside, two other managers who had a better Premier League win ratio than the 'Special One': Avram Grant (69%) and Antonio Conte (67%) edging out the Portuguese.
Completing the top 5 is Carlo Ancelotti, who won 48 Premier League games (63%) in his two seasons at the club - the first of which famously brought Chelsea a 'Double' in the 2009/10 season.
In terms of silverware, Mourinho is the man to beat, the current Man Utd boss winning 10 titles in total during his two spells at Stamford Bridge. However, Roberto Di Matteo has perhaps the biggest bragging rights - for bagging the Blues' only Champions League success in 2011/12.
