Emerson is confident Chelsea can beat Man City in EFL Cup final

Chelsea defender Emerson Palmieri believes the club have what it takes to beat Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.

The Blues have struggled in recent weeks in the Premier League, losing in humiliating fashion to Bournemouth and Manchester City, while they were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United earlier this week.

However, the Italy international believes that his side cannot be written off yet, despite facing a Manchester City side in lightening form, who recently decimated them 6-0, at Wembley Stadium.

As reported by Goal, Palmieri said:

From tomorrow, it is all about the final against Man City. It will be a difficult game, but we totally have what it takes to become champions.

I’m ready, and I hope I can help the team in this important game.

I’m feeling good physically, with resistance and more strength. I am sure that this is the result of the work that I have been doing inside the club, but also through the recovery work and the nutrition among the people who follow me here. It’s good to feel ready.

matchday.
