When Manchester City entertained Chelsea, friends reunited in the lounge

Chelsea was taught by Guardiola's former assistant Enso Marsca, and he spent a season with the Spaniards in 2022-2023.

Marsca said that although the host is not in good condition, Chelsea will be difficult to defeat Manchester City. "For this club and these players, when they are in difficult moments, they want to show how good they are. I don't think there is a good time to play with Manchester City," he said.
