"Cardiff City manager has history with the Chelsea boss as he aims to deliver another League Cup shock"
"Tonight may mark Cardiff City's first meeting with Chelsea in almost seven years, but for Brian Barry-Murphy, there will be no shortage of familiar faces."
"Having spent three years working closely with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, the Corkman departed last year. Then, after six months coaching at Leicester, he returned to senior management last summer at Cardiff, his first top job since leaving Rochdale four years previously."
Cardiff City will meet Chelsea for the first time in almost seven years. Brian Barry-Murphy spent three years working closely with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City before departing last year. He then spent six months coaching at Leicester. He returned to senior management last summer when he became Cardiff manager, marking his first top-level managerial role since leaving Rochdale four years earlier. The Corkman brings experience from top Premier League environments into the Cardiff dugout. Barry-Murphy seeks to use that background and familiarity with opponents to deliver another League Cup shock against Chelsea.
