Europa League final: Petit
makes shocking prediction on Chelsea, Arsenal clash
Arsenal legend,
Emmanuel Petit, has backed Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea to beat Unai Emery’s men
when both sides clash in Wednesday’s Europa League final in Baku.
Chelsea reached the
Europa League final after defeating Frankfurt in semi-final encounter, while
Arsenal dumped Napoli out of the competition.
But Petit believes
Chelsea are ‘in a good place’ to win the Europa League ahead of Arsenal.
“I’ve been critical
of Sarri in the past, particularly about some tactical decisions that I didn’t
understand. But you have to give him the time to do what he wants to do with
the team,” Petit told Paddy Power.
“If they win the
Europa League, they’ll have a European trophy, which alongside their earlier
Champions League qualification, translates to a good year for Chelsea.
“With all that in
mind, there’s a lot to be happy about for the club. If you compare this season
to the previous, he has probably achieved what the club asked him to do.
“Most of the time
when watching Chelsea, I get bored very easily, but the important thing is to
win games and win trophies, and they’re in a good place to do that.”
