Maurizio Sarri Claims Chelsea Are Better Side Than Arsenal

Despite pressure face by Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri, he believes the club is better than his London-based rivals Arsenal FC. 

The Italian, 60, has been criticised for the club's lossing streak, biggest of which was 6-0 to Manchester City at Etihad Stadium and 4-0 at Bournemouth. Still, he maintained that for his team to be in the final of the EFL Carabao Cup, it is a prove that they have done better than Gunners this season. 

"Arsenal's season is good but we're doing a little bit better because we are in the final, and our season is a disaster? I am not able to understand," he says. 

Arsenal was eliminated from the Carabao Cup after losing 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United knocked them out of the FA Cup in fourth round by 3-1, leaving them with UEFA Europa League title to fight for this season. 

Sarri added in his statement that Chelsea have improved under him than they were last season saying, "I want to remind you that in the last two seasons this team had 70 points, not 100. In the summer, we changed everything."

However, it is obvious that winning the Premier League is unattainable for Chelsea and that Sarri's job is on the line should the team performance continue to drop. As it is now, the club management reportedly are more interested in appearing in the Champions League and that doesn't seemed to be at his reach presently. 

Chelsea will know their fate on Sunday when they will host Manchester City in the English Football League (Carabao Cup) final at Stanford Bridge.
