EPL: Ex-Chelsea Star Criticizes Sarri as a Superstitious Manager

Former Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has criticized the club’s ex-coach, Maurizio Sarri, describing him as a “very standstill and superstitious manager.”

Cahill expressed his dissatisfaction with Sarri’s tactical approach and noted that the Italian coach did not select him during his tenure at Stamford Bridge.

The 38-year-old, who experienced a challenging period under Sarri from July 2018 to June 2019, left Chelsea two months after Sarri’s departure.
