that's all ahead on bbc news. now on bbc news, it's time for sportsday. hello, and welcome to sportsday. sarri's wembley humiliation — has player power left his position as chelsea manager untenable? a wash—out in the west indies as england's women lose again in india. and joshua on avoiding a banana skin with the big baby in the big apple. normally, they say, i don't listen to it, it distract you, but i know him more than any other fighter.

hello, and welcome to sportsday. (good evening. it's an unprecedented sight in football. a player undermining their manager in such a public way. it all unravelled for chelsea when goalkeeper kepa arrizabalaga refused to be substituted in an incident which overshadowed manchester city's league cup win at wembley on sunday. this was the sequence of events. despite being treated for cramp in extra time, kepa was insisitent he was fine to continue. but sarri wanted to make the change before the penalty shoot out loss, with the score still goalless during extra time. replacement willy caballero was primed on the sidelines to come on. but kepa refused to follow instructions from the touchline, leaving his manager furious. the italian marching down the tunnel at one point, with his authority undermined, and the world watching.

you can see how angry he was, in a tough season for the italian as we'll discuss in a moment. and then to top it off, kepa winking at the camera, with the look of a man who'd won the battle with his manager. here was maurizio sarri's explanation of what happened. i understood that he had cramp, and so i understood that he had cramp, and soi i understood that he had cramp, and so i didn't want the goalkeeper to have penalties in that physical condition. i realised that the situation after three or four minutes, when the doctor arrived again to the bench. in the meantime, i wanted willy caballero on the pitch, and the goalkeeper wanted only to let me know that he was in condition to go to the penalties. so, it was only a big misunderstanding. kepa was right, but in the wrong way, i think.

so, sarri and chelsea trying to paint a united front. there is a growing feeling in football that this is indicative of what it's going on in football at the moment. what has been the fallout and the reaction to what we saw in full yesterday? for all the football we watch in this newsroom, it still throws up in incidents like this. it is something we have never seen before, a player refusing to come off as a substitute. the immediate reaction to this exchange must pretty remarkable, because we don't often get football clubs immediately releasing a statement on twitter. this is what chelsea put out within a few minutes of chelsea lifting the trophy. they said... the goalkeeper himself also released a statement not long after the final

whistle, and also use the word misunderstood. he also said he has full respect for the coach sarri and his authority. both the club and the players and gus was down to kepa making a recovery from the crampy experience. but many people are not buying that, because there was some logic to bringing that substitute on. wella colour berra was the player stripped and ready to come on, and he is something of a penalty saving specialist, as he showed for manchester city in this competition's final three seasons ago. you might even have known were some others are from a team it's like to put their spot kicks as well. he might have had eight psychological advantage too. let's have a look at some of the erection over the last 2a hours. jose mourinho, the former chelsea manager, said that kepa has put the

clu b manager, said that kepa has put the club ina manager, said that kepa has put the club in a fragile situation. he said it is also sad for chelsea, and for maurizio sarri in particular. chris sutton, speaking on five live, was not very sympathetic, in his usual self. he said the goalkeeper is a disgrace and should be sacked. lots of reaction on twitter as well. i will pick up this one, because it is interesting. you mention about the way that football is going in modern times, and that chelsea's model, he says, makes a manager almost as possible, because the change manager so possible, because the change manager so often. it is not long ago that we had antonio conte leading them to the premier league title. has that changed the culture but these pairs? you certainly wonder. david preece, the former goalkeeper and journalist joins us tonight. david, chelsea see it as joins us tonight. david, chelsea see itasa joins us tonight. david, chelsea see it as a big misunderstanding. you have played in the position. it is not really for a goalkeeper to decide when he comes off the field of play, surely? it looks as though

he has deliberately undermined his manager in the situation. yes, we can say that. i mean, before all the state m e nts can say that. i mean, before all the statements were made after the match, what happened could have went either way. it could have been a tactical substitution, or it could have been one that was taken because of the injury and the cramps to kepa. now, in the second instance of the india, i think it is a collective responsibility with the medical staff, manager and player, but ultimately, if it is not a tactical substitution, if it is solely down to the worry about an injury hindering him in the penalty shoot out, then the final decision comes with the player. if it is not a had not which you have to take the responsibility out of the pia's hands and you have to take the responsibility out of the player's hands can get on with the game and still be at his best for that penalty shoot out, then i think i have to stick with the goalkeeper. but nobody comes out of this looking good, simply because of the

dramatics of it. it is really interesting you say that, because it feels in that sequence of events was perhaps a moment where he should have perhaps followed the instructions his manager. joe, i guess this is indicative as well to what has been the latest in what has been a difficult season so far for maurizio sarri at chelsea. we can't ta ke maurizio sarri at chelsea. we can't take this incident in isolation, because things have started to unravel for maurizio sarri as chelsea manager since the turn of the year, because he was actually a revelation at the start of the season. he had chelsea level on points with liverpool in taken place after 11 games, and even in december, chelsea were the first tea m december, chelsea were the first team this season to inflict defeat on manchester city. but it is sarri's failure to adapt to setbacks which had made the support base get more frustrated. the last 4—0 and then six nil to manchester city and then six nil to manchester city and the return fixture, and then in the

last week, these two might cup defeats to both the manchester clu bs. defeats to both the manchester clubs. and though maurizio sarri has taken chelsea's training session today, we will have to wait and see how many more he takes. the as job was saying earlier, there is a sense that managers are somewhat disposable at chelsea, and we know that roman abramovich has not attended as many matches this season. as a something of a power vacuum emerging at chelsea? and are they placing actors their position to step in? —— the players are seeing it as their position to step in? de what is that it is a club waiting to be sold, and that these eight lots of insecurity around the place. like said, there is a power vacuum as well, but this is in the dna of chelsea. this is what happens to managers. before we hear of a manager being sacked, before be here even bad results, we get the undress from the dressing room that comes

out, and it is the same dance with almost every manager, and it is right back from jose mourinho's first stint at the club. from my experience, it sounds like there is some sort of dysfunctional dressing room there, and you are right, as soon as those players are unhappy, are quitea soon as those players are unhappy, are quite a few of those players are unhappy, it looks like it is the beginning of the end for the manager. thank you. really interesting to hear a goalkeeper siding with a goalkeeper. that was former player and journalist david preece joining former player and journalist david preecejoining us former player and journalist david preece joining us tonight. fundamentally, it turned out to be a great day for manchester city yesterday, because they landed their first piece of silverware in what could be a quadruple season for them, and league rivals liverpool dropping points against manchester united yesterday. this is the jigsaw city

are putting together to try and become the first english team to win a quadruple of trophies. next month, they play the championship side swansea city in the last eight of the fa cup, and they'll also try and finish the job in the last 16 of the champions league as they take a 3—2 advantage over schalke back home. they're also one point behind liverpool now in the race for the premier league title. both teams have 11 games to play. no team has ever matched or surpassed the treble won by manchester united in 1999. indicentally, city are also marking their dominance on this trophy in particular — they've now won the league cup in its various sponsorship guises in four of the past six seasons. arm and a sense perhaps of things to come for the remainder of the season. many thanks for that. a quick look at the some

other stories now. sarri wasn't the omly manager frustrated this weekend — mauricio pochettino argued with referee mike dean as spurs lost to burnely on saturday. he's been charged by the fa with improper conduct. dean meanwhile has been removed as the fourth official for tottenham's next game with chelsea on wednesday. german police have arrested a 30—year—old man following an assault which left a manchester city fan in hospital the incident happened towards the end of city's champions league match at schalke. and the bbc will broadcast every england women's game in the build—up to this summer's world cup in france. the shebelieves cup matches against brazil, the usa and japan will all be live on bbc television and via the bbc sport website and app. englan's women have lost their series in india. already 1—0 down, they lost by seven wickets in their second one day international in mumbai. india were rarely troubled as they chased down england's target

of 161, with captain heather knight forced to admit they haven't given a good account of themselves on this tour. henry moeran is with the team. england came to mum about hoping to win an odi series on indian soilfor the first time. too much is in, and the first time. too much is in, and the opportunity has gone, and with that, the chance to win four crucial icc points. it was a heavy defeat, batting second on the first occasion. this time, they won the toss, but could not make most of the batting conditions early on. only in early brilliant innings offered much hope for england. 161 was all they could muster, and the lowly target was easily chased down by india. the world's best batter in the women's game making 163. england left what scratch my thinking what might have been, is once again they have come

to india and failed to win an odi series. we have got one more game to 90, series. we have got one more game to go, with those championship points, so go, with those championship points, so it is really important we dust ourselves down. obviously, we feel the disappointment, but tomorrow we will move on and focus on that last odi. this year is an ashes year, and england will go into the summer knowing they have to play the role's number one side on home soil, but australia, when they were here 12 months ago, beat india 3—0. australia, when they were here 12 months ago, beat india 3-0. they came up with extremely high hopes, wanting to be the first team to win an away series in india. they have not done that. think about the ashes coming up, qualifications for the bulk up, there has to be concerned. the third and final one day international is on thursday in the stadium. the series may have gone, but for england, once again there are points on the line, and also the chance to show that they can perform well in indian conditions. and there

are plenty of battles that will know they have to go out there and show they have to go out there and show they have to go out there and show they have the right selections and they have the right selections and the other right players heading into a cute summer for the women's in england. boxing, and a look ahead to tonight's fotball to come. a couple of other lines for you first though. the third one day international between west indies and england has been abandoned because of persistent rain in grenada. they'll go to the next match on wednesday with the series still level at one—all. dan evans has risen tojust outside the world's top 100. he missed out on a maiden atp tour title in florida. he had three championship points before losing in the final at the delray beach open. he's on course to qualify for the main draw at the french open and wimbledon. and racing driver sophia floersch will be back behind the wheel of a car for the first time since her terrible crash in macau last november. the 18—year—old will be involved in formula three pre—season testing at monza next week. there were fireworks when the two went head to head

in new york last week. but as boxer anthonyjoshua continues in his quest to unify all the belts in the heavyweight division, he gave some fascinating insight into the amount of research he's carried out on his next opponent, the little known americanjarrel miller. ade adeoyin was at today's press conference in london. the press conference was not as fiery as the one in new york last week, but there is a sign that millar got under anthonyjoshua's skin, because anthonyjoshua does not engage in much trash talk, but he said that he plans to rearrange millar's face when they meet on during the first. he also said when we interviewed him after which, of all the opponents he had first, he has watch more videos about jarrel millar, because he cannot afford too many slip—ups with so much riding on this contest. your micro he is the first fighter that i know about what he sees, how it operates, how he

feels. i have watched his press conferences, his face was. i have listened to all the boxing channels' opinions. i have watched his fights. normally, they say, don't listen to that, it distracts you, but i will know him know that i have known any other fighter. i just don't want to slip up against him, because that is the banana skin factor. i have also had to fight... i was called out, so we are trying to negotiate when i was fighting parker. after that, we we re was fighting parker. after that, we were trying to negotiate, how to fight a mandatory. trying to negotiate again. every fight, i am like, i cannot afford to make any mistakes, so with millar i have to do even more research. anthony joshua got into this contest is a

favourite, despite the fact that more men are undefeated, anthony joshua has faced better opposition. but millar says that that is overrated, and he doesn't believe that anthonyjoshua overrated, and he doesn't believe that anthony joshua can overrated, and he doesn't believe that anthonyjoshua can match for desire. anybody else is nothing. and he fought with parker, and i feel like with parker, he did not put the pressure on him as much,. he has been hurt every fight. i am bigger, lam hungry, been hurt every fight. i am bigger, i am hungry, i am stronger. been hurt every fight. i am bigger, lam hungry, lam stronger. i bring a lot more than the table than good looks, good record and money behind me. i looks, good record and money behind me. lam looks, good record and money behind me. i am the underdog, and looks, good record and money behind me. lam the underdog, and i looks, good record and money behind me. i am the underdog, and i am hungry. the heavyweight division is the most vibrant it has been for some time, and the boxing fans want to see the best of the best, and three men can claim that. but

anthonyjoshua feels that should not be an obstacle to making a unification bout with all three men. first up, he needs to get pass jarrel millar on during the first. one wonders what frank lampard will have made of events at wembley as he continues to build his reputation as a manager with championship derby county. and his stock will rise considerably if they qualify for the play offs. nottingham forest are their next big test, which comes away from home tonight. colin hazelden is at the city ground as lampard and derby go for the thee
