Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca says Manchester City and Arsenal are better than other Premier League clubs because Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta have been at the clubs for long.
Maresca said this as he previews Chelsea’s home game against London rivals Arsenal on Sunday.
The former Leicester boss would hope to end Chelsea’s winless run against the Gunners when both heavyweights clash.
In their last four meetings in the Premier League Arsenal have won three and drawn one and battered the Blues 5-0 in last season’s meeting at the Emirates.
“I don’t know. I also like to get pressure from these kinds of game. The pressure is also for us,” Maresca was qouted on Arsenal News Central.
“For sure, Arsenal are the closest team to City. Both, I consider them better than the rest.
“The reason why is because one club is working with the same manager for nine years, and the other one is working with the same manager for five years, and this is a big, big, big advantage compared to the rest.
“So for me, that’s why they are better than the rest. But we’re going to try on Sunday to make life difficult for them. We’re going to try our best.”
