Danny Drinkwater lifted the lid on his extraordinary snub by former Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri as he expressed his relief his nightmare at the club is over.
Drinkwater, who joined Chelsea from Leicester for £35million in 2017, is a free agent after his time at Stamford Bridge officially concluded at the end of last month. His five years in West London saw him play only 23 times in all competitions and leave on loan on four occasions.
The midfielder, 32, admits he is relieved his disastrous spell with the five-time Premier League winners is over and insists he is not bitter about how the last five years have gone, even if he is angry.
