Chelsea manager, Maurizio Sarri, has insisted that Manchester City are the best team not just in England but in Europe.
Sarri stated this during his Friday press conference ahead of his side’s trip to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
Pep Guardiola’s side only returned to the top of the Premier League table on Wednesday following their 2-0 win over Everton after trailing Liverpool for several weeks.
Chelsea were the first side to beat City in the league this season when they defeated the champions 2-0 at Stamford Bridge in December.
However, Sarri’s admiration of Guardiola’s team has not dimmed as he said: “At the moment, in my opinion, Manchester City is the best team in Europe.
“Guardiola is in the third season in the Premier League. We have to try to reduce the gap.”
Chelsea go into the game at the Etihad knowing that if they win, they will be nine points behind City, with a game in hand.
