Kepa Arrizabalaga: Maurizio Sarri confirms goalkeeper is still Chelsea’s number one despite Tottenham demotion
Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri insists Kepa Arrizabalaga remains his number one goalkeeper despite dropping him to the bench for the 2-0 victory over Tottenham.The 24-year-old shot-stopper, who defied Sarri by refusing to be substituted during the Carabao Cup final defeat to Manchester City, will return to the starting XI for one of the next two games.2

Kepa paid the price for his actions during the Carabao Cup final

While the Blues manager initially described the situation at Wembley as a misunderstanding, Arrizabalaga was fined a week’s wages and then replaced by Willy Caballero for the London derby at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.But Sarri claims he is ready to put the incident to bed, now that the Spaniard has paid a sufficient price to his team-mates.When asked if Arrizabalaga remains first choice between the sticks, Sarri said: “Of course. “I think it was the right decision [to bench him], Kepa made a big mistake, he paid with the club, and then he had to pay with the team.“But now I have to think we have to stop, Kepa from tomorrow will be with us. He is back in the team for the weekend, I don’t know in the next match if he will be on the pitch or not, but one of the next two he will [start].“When you are young I think you can make mistakes, and the most important thing is that you need to understand very well after every mistake. For me, now the best thing is to close it.”2

Caballero was untested as Chelsea put the bitter disappointment of the cup final behind them with victory over Spurs.A cagey affair of few clear-cut chances was decided by a moment of magic from Pedro and a shocking own-goal from Kieran Trippier.
