Sarri-ball has not so much deflated, it has exploded in Chelsea manager's face
Manchester City already had six good reasons to believe they would end Chelsea’s interest in domestic competitions at Wembley on Sunday and now they have two more.
If the 6-0 hiding City administered to Chelsea in the Premier League two weeks ago wasn’t evidence enough of plummeting morale at Stamford Bridge then their neighbours Manchester United put a big red circle around the subject here in West London.
City will surely beat Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea team in the Carabao Cup Final on Sunday. It already looks the safest of bets. Sarri-ball – whatever it was in the first place – has not so much deflated but exploded in the face of the Chelsea coach.
