This is after the Blues lost to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on Sunday, February 24. Sarri then lined up a substitution in the 29th minute of extra time - Willy Caballero, the former City goalkeeper was already at the touchline to replace Kepa. He refused to leave the pitch and gestured to the bench with his fingers insisting he was okay. Kepa was then beaten by Raheem Sterling who converted his spot kick magnificently earning Manchester City a 4-3 victory. The internet was abuzz with reaction, with football legend Allan Shearer blaming the Spaniard for making ‘a fool’ of manager Maurizio Sarri.
