Enzo Maresca’s latest comments are likely to leave many Chelsea fans feeling confused and uncertain about his perspective.
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca’s latest comments have left many supporters puzzled. As he gears up for a crucial Premier League showdown against Tottenham—a match that could heavily influence the club’s Champions League qualification—his statements have sparked debate among fans.
Although this wasn’t Maresca’s official press conference, which is set to take place later today, he shared his views in an interview on Chelsea’s official website. The conversation provided insights into the team’s progress and current position in the league.
Back in December, Chelsea were in second place, with many seeing them as serious title contenders. However, just a few months later, they are now battling to hold onto fourth place, with multiple teams in close pursuit.
Maresca now faces the possibility of ending the season with a points total similar to Mauricio Pochettino’s last year—a campaign that ultimately cost Pochettino his job.
Maresca’s Take
Despite growing concerns, Maresca remains confident that Chelsea have made progress over the last two months—an assertion that might surprise many fans.
He remarked:
“Personally, I believe we are a stronger team than we were two months ago.”
“Difficult moments are essential for growth. Given the number of injuries we’ve had, my job has been to find solutions, whether by repositioning players or tweaking our tactics.”
“We’ve remained in the top four all season, and it’s our duty to stay there. Chelsea belongs in the Champions League, and we must do everything possible to secure our place.”
