Enzo Maresca Thread

[DDA 10,057]

Tough one in regards to Maresca.. he has made some very strange decisions of late.. 

All i’m saying is it is no coincidence that yet again, another manager is at loggerheads with the ownership. They are control freaks who have the weirdest view on what success is in football… because they say their project is starting to show the fruits of it’s labour yet we are scrapping out for top 4… is that all they want then?

People can be critical, its their right, but need to be careful what they wish for.

Think hes doing alright tbh, apart from some questionable subs.

But with subsitutions, every manager gets slagged Mourinho and Carlo got slated on this forum at the height of their success. Nowt as fickle as fans.

[Vesper 30,578]

a list of managers I would accept (not listing ones who would never come now due to being all good at their current clubs, so no Pep, no Luis Enrique, no Hansi Flick, no Tuchel, no Lionel Scaloni, no Carlo Ancelotti, no Diego Simeone, no Julian Nagelsmann, no Vincent Kompany, plus (do not want either) no Arteta, no Conte, etc)

 

in no true order:

Klopp (almost impossible, doubt he would come here)

Zidane (pretty much impossible, plus he refuses to learn English, he waiting to take over the French national team)

Simone Inzaghi

Unai Emery

Cesc Fabregas

Xabi Alonso (IF Real sack him, I still really rate him)

Oliver Glasner

Abel Ferreira

Andoni Iraola

 

not yet completely sold on:

Roberto De Zerbi

Liam Rosenior

Marco Silva

Fabian Hürzeler

Thiago Motta

 

wild cards:

Lamps

Didier Deschamps (may well retire after the World Cup)

🔥Just heard from someone at the presser:

The word there was the club asked him to sweep his comments under the rug but rumours were that he wasn't going to - and he didn't!

Chelsea kept cutting out the stream too on questions about the SDs and owners Wow...

(@SimonPhillips)

 

🔵Enzo Maresca didn't say anything when asked if he spoke to the owners or sporting directors after Saturday.

(@NizaarKinsella)

 

🔴Maresca says he has nothing to add to his comments on Saturday. CFC "I have already spoken about that and was quite clear."

"Are you happy with people saying you have bad relationship with the sporting directors and owners?" 

Maresca: "I said after the game that I love Chelsea supporters - they deserve the best. Again, I don't have nothing to add"

 

🗯💣Wow, it won't be long now!💣🗯

For a season where he has lost his best CB Colwill, best attacker Palmer and lost his best midfielder for 3 games in a crunch time and had a hatful of red cards to contend with, Maresca has done more than alright and anyone who thinks the manager is the issue in all of this are wrong. We also came into the season with a 2 week preparation and no real pre-season. It was also a summer where our global profile was restored after years of mediocrity.

We can upgrade Maresca but I can't fault his commitment to preparing the team every week. Only few occasions he's got things wrong this season imo.

Great list, Vesper👌🔥

🔵I would add Filipe Luis, *Francesco Farioli, and Xavi to the list of possible coaches.

🟢I also think Matthias Jaissle is a great young coach, but he's probably still too green for the Chelsea board.
