Chelsea's Carabao Cup Final loss to Man City attracted attention not because of their expertise but because of Kepa's refusal to leave the field. The Spanish goalkeeper is determined not to leave the field even though Coach Sarri has replaced him. This inherent problem has led many to say that Sarri has lost control of the dressing room.
Even the former Chelsea player Terry said: That situation accidentally puts Coach Sarri in a difficult position. I was surprised he didn't run in to pull Kepa out. If I were the coach, I would take drastic action.
Coach Sarri opened up about the past and affirmed his relationship with the team: "Everything is still good. I spoke to Marina Graniskovaia (Ch Chelsea manager) this week. Of course, that includes Kepa's situation. My relationship with the club remains the same.
Backs are not a problem. Kepa made a big mistake, but he's a really good guy. There is only one difficulty: the result. The atmosphere on the training ground at this time is very good. The players' adaptation is better than before.
Sarri added: I think will always caballero is a very good goalkeeper and also a great man. He is an example for the dressing room because of his personality, his behavior and everything else. He's mature enough to be ready for everything."
The problem now is to improve the results. It was difficult to play 3 days/match at the same intensity. physically, it's not easy to meet. The same goes for the spirit when playing with the same level of satisfaction and determination, it is very difficult.
" Anyway, we have to do it tomorrow because it is a very important match. A very difficult match. Tottenham are playing very well away from home while we have focused all our efforts on the match on Sunday. Coach Sarri concluded.
