Under-pressure Chelsea head coach Maurizio Sarri wants to free his players' minds ahead of Sunday's Carabao Cup final with Manchester City.
Embarrassing losses at Bournemouth and City – Chelsea's heaviest defeat in 28 years – plus the negative reaction of supporters in Monday's FA Cup exit to Manchester United has ensured Sarri's position is precarious.
Chelsea beat City 2-0 on December 8, but the 6-0 loss came just two weeks prior to the final at Wembley, when Sarri will be seeking the first trophy of his managerial career.
