Pep Guardiola and Maurizio Sarri will meet for the second time in less than a month in Sunday's League Cup showpieceMaurizio Sarri is in a similar predicament to the one Pep Guardiola faced in his first season in charge of Manchester City, says Chelsea assistant coach Gianfranco Zola. Sarri remained defiant about his determination to employ his preferred style of football - known as 'Sarriball' - despite their comprehensive 6-0 defeat against league champions Manchester City last Sunday. "Two years ago you were probably asking the same questions to Pep Guardiola. He has improved a lot, Pep, because he's got his team defending better, he's got his team pressing better and attacking better. But we don't change the way we see football and what is good for this club, because otherwise we are nothing."
