Chelsea manager Maurizio Sari outlined his desire to improve Ross Barkley as a player, following his side's 1-0 Premier League win over Crystal Palace on Sunday.
The Blues were made to work hard to earn their victory, and eventually got their breakthrough in the second half, with N'Golo Kanté finishing neatly after a precision pass from David Luiz. A lacklustre Palace side were unable to find an equaliser, as Chelsea strolled to a comfortable victory at Selhurst Park.

Speaking after the match, via Sky Sports,
"I like that we were in full control of the match for 85 minutes. We moved the ball very well and fast, especially in the second half.
"I think we need continuity, in the results and the performances. We need continuity in motivation and as a consequence, in determination on the pitch because in the last months, we had some difficulties to find continuity.
The Blues will look to win their third match in row this week, as they take on Southampton at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening. The Saints have looked a much better side under their new manager
