Simon Phillips sources have been hearing since last season that Maresca is not entirely happy at Chelsea right now, and the summer transfer window just made that even worse.

Maresca is not content with the squad he’s got and was far from behind a lot of the recruitment we did this summer and feels his squad still lacks a lot of key elements in some positions. SPTC sources have heard that there is definite tension between Maresca and the board.

We’ve also heard of some tensions between Maresca and Bernardo Cueva, the Technical Analyst at Chelsea. But we aren’t sure at the moment exactly why or how bad.

But we know the Chelsea owners and SD’s respect Cueva and have no plans to move him on.

And since last season, as I also reported at the time, there are some players within the group who are also not overly warm with Maresca for different reasons.

I’ve reported on Cole Palmer before not really being behind Maresca’s ways of wanting the team to play, and Reece James can also be placed in that same category.

There are a few other players as well who are just not overly vibing with the head coach.

Of course, you will not hear that in public and in players comments on Maresca, this is not something that will be public knowledge, obviously. But there are certainly some issues in this sense and has been for a while.

Sources close to Palmer are also annoyed that he has now got a further injury to his groin after playing games last week when he should not have been playing.

Palmer is Palmer and obviously he just wants to play, but there is blame pointing towards Maresca for picking him in the Bayern and Manchester United game, with him getting a further groin tear in the United game and now not returning before the next international break, at the VERY earliest by the way.

I wont be surprised if he’s still out for a game or two after the break as well.

Palmer is also annoyed because he wants to make sure he can play in the World Cup at the end of the season.

This again has not become public knowledge but I consider it factual due to how good my Palmer source is.

They clearly don’t want to make it seem like a negligent decision to keep playing Palmer, which it absolutely was.

The only thing I can imagine is Maresca leaving the club.

I've been saying that since last season because, as I said, he's not happy here and there are a few things that bother him. Plus, a lot of clubs are interested in him. 

(@Simon Phillips)

What clubs are interested in him? Just asking out of curiosity?

Frenkie de Jong is soon permanently off the board. He is on the verge of signing a new Barca deal that ends when he will be 33yo or so.




 

He’s been permanently off the board for about 5 years now…

Like every time any media outlets tried to say Barca wanted to move him on, he came out and said he has no intentions of leaving basically. And they resolved the wage thing years ago.

Wirtz is far better than Havertz.

Doesn't look that way.

Signing Wirtz now would be similar to Havertz.

Wirtz is Havertz 2.0. The same player Havertz was years ago. He doesnt fit the Prem. Better he stays where he is. We have no place for him. 

Good prediction 👍 

Thankfully Liverpool has 😆

I didn't criticize him or Cucurella in first season. Just said Wirtz doesn't look good... 

You're only allowed to judge Gittens negatively. 

 

I'm cracking up thinking if we got Wirtz. This place would have melted down.

Aleksandar Pavlovic (multiple big European sides)

Alphonso Davies  (multiple big European sides)

plus

GKer Gregor Kobel of Dortmund is linked to many clubs
