Maresca did succeed in bringing Leicester City back to promotion to the Premier League, but the competition in the Premier League will be much tougher because there are many strong teams here.
Becoming a coach of a top team is also not easy because he will feel a lot of pressure. Maresca does need support from management and fans, but it depends on how he succeeds in bringing Chelsea to play more consistently.

Maresca's task is not easy and we can see how every coach will experience difficulties in the Premier League.
If he doesn't want to suffer the same fate as Pochettino then he must try to show change for Chelsea.

Didn't you see when Chelsea recruited a lot of players last season that those players didn't make any contribution to the team so you said that they were good at bringing in players? In my opinion, they still couldn't maximize the previous transfer market, so the players they brought in were transfers that in my opinion "failed".

I'm also not really sure that they will play well next season, not that I doubt them, but what they have experienced in the last few seasons makes me doubt it and they will also work with a new coach which coach may need quite a long time to make the team he handles show their best. But for now I can't say that they will be even better next season.

On the other hand, I hope they can improve, because if they can improve it will make the competition in the Premier League even more interesting and tighter because it is filled with many teams that are ready to provide competition.

Bro, I understand perfectly what you are saying, but the approach of Chelsea football club is not about performance, it's about control, since the new owners of Chelsea bought the club, it's only lampard and graham potter that they have sacked base on bad performance as managers of Chelsea, Thomas tuchel wasn't sacked because of result on the field, he was sacked base on the new owners want someone that they can control and that is what has brought Chelsea football club this backward.

They are just looking for a yes man, as for Mauricio pochettino, initially he agreed on being they yes man, but along the line, he saw that he can't do well as a coach if he can't bring his own type of players, and he started having disagreement with Todd boehly and co. that was what led to him being sacked, after he opposes the sale of Gallagher and choloba.

Lastly, Enzo mascara might do well if the new owners give him the free hands to do his job without any interference, because that has been the major issue since they took over from roman abrahimovic and until they stop looking for manager they can control and stop interfering, Chelsea will keep on struggling.

I like the action that Chelsea used to take with their coach when the coach was not doing well the way they expected, I like Chelsea with that kind of energy and that is the same step a team like Manchester United needs to follow and they will not, I believe if Enzo Maresca did not do well next season he will be sacked by the team, although I feel bad when they sacked pochettino and it is because pochettino and the team are doing well before they sacked him, I have never see Enzo Maresca as a coach before but with his coach experience from where he is coaching before I believe he will take Chelsea to another level and Chelsea will be happy with what he will bring to the team.

Chelsea's squad is going to be very good and strong next season because Chelsea is signing new talented players and they are all young, currently, I think Chelsea is the best team that is signing players now, the remaining teams like Arsenal, Liverpool and some teams have never started, maybe they want the transfer window to be open and settled for the players that their contract will end at the end of the June, Chelsea is doing great by using another coach and it will be good if Manchester United do the same.

Most at times, some of them don't really care about having such opportunity again in the future when offer like this comes. They prefer to gamble with their career in bigger clubs where the pay is significant and they will be quickly recognized. Decision like this is actually beneficial especially when you are able to deliver your work efficiently. Aside the financial benefits, they will gain more experience managing a big club and there is chance for them to become hot cake that every club would want to hire if they have impressive performance. Consequently, the criticism alone is enough to put them in a state of melancholy when their performance is short of expectations and the chances of getting hired after that is very slim. If Chelsea can be patient enough to give him more time and expect less from him (thou I doubt this) Maresca probably will be able to progress with the club to some extent.

We will know if Enzo Maresca will perform well as Chelsea's head coach when the new Premier League season starts. Enzo Maresca needs time to understand his squad and know the tactics to use that will help him get the results that Chelsea management wants. Chelsea already has a lot of young players, and Enzo Maresca will want to sign his players that will fit his style of play, which will give him time to know his starting eleven. Chelsea would have performed better next season if Mauricio Pochettino were still Chelsea's head coach because he now understands the Chelsea squad better and knows the players to use in his starting eleven to win his matches.

Of the several players you mentioned, I am more focused on Chelsea seriousness in immediately getting Marc Guiu and Omari Kellyman who have a greater chance of becoming reliable players and looking at the achievements of these two players, it seems that Chelsea will continue to send offers to Barcelona and Aston Villa owns the player.
But the problem is that bringing in these two young players is a little difficult considering that Barcelona is short of players and Aston Villa is motivated by the EPL title, unless the offer made by Chelsea is bigger.

Even though Chelsea focuses more on young players, choosing Aaron Anselmino and Murillo as defenders is not the right choice because the talent they possess seems very doubtful.
Or is it just me not agreeing with players Aaron Anselmino and Murillo?

Edit: I'm sorry, apparently I missed the latest news and it turns out that now Marc Guiu has been confirmed after a medical test that he will soon join Chelsea.
But do you think he will replace Nicolas Jackson or maybe he will just be a second tier player?
Marc Guiu has completed medical tests as new Chelsea player tonight in London!

But this is Leicester City first season after getting promotion to the Premier League, they have to start the season with new coach and I think there will be quite significant difference in the style of play and strategy they use in competing for comfortable place in the Premier League.
Enzo Maresca has shown how his performance can be said to be quite good, in fact he has provided several successes for Leicester last season so that they were actually able to get promoted back into the Premier League, but however they also couldn't do much to maintain it.
We see how their new coach works, after all he also has experience coaching big team like the England youth national team, this could make him coach who might be able to easily adapt to the Leicester City players.

But the problem is that Enzo Maresca has big effort for Chelsea, he is asking to bring in several of Leicester City mainstay players and if everything happens then Leicester City will have to be in more difficult condition.
Everything will be fine for Chelsea but not for Leicester who have just been promoted to the Premier League but have lost several important roles in their squad.

Enzo Maresca success in bringing Leicester City promotion to the Premier League meant that Chelsea did not have the slightest hesitation in bringing him in. Chelsea also had such high expressions of Guardiola former assistant that they dared to offer him a contract duration of five years. The process of Enzo Maresca move resulted in Leicester City receiving large royalties from Chelsea, this money can be used to strengthen their squad so that they can compete with other teams to last longer in the most prestigious competition.

Leicester City didn't need long to find a new coach, Steve Cooper will fill the position previously held by Enzo Maresca. Improvements in the Leicester squad will occur after a change of coach to prepare the squad to face a very competitive tournament. Leicester City can use the money obtained from the process of moving Enzo Maresca to make it easier for Steve Cooper to handle the squad he will manage this season. Leicester decision to let Maresca go was very correct, they could increase the club's finances which would make it easier for them to face the new season.

If Leicester City wants to be even more successful in the Premier League like before, it is appropriate if Enzo Maresca is retained in the coaching chair. Because you can be sure that Enzo Maresca already has good chemistry with the Leicester City players, and also definitely knows what strategies are suitable to apply to the Leicester City players. But what can you do, if Leicester City really doesn't have the ability to increase Enzo Maresca's salary, releasing him from the coaching chair wouldn't be the wrong thing to do. Because you can be sure, if for example Enzo Maresca is retained by Leicester City with the same salary (not yet increased). Enzo Maresca will certainly leave and accept a contract from another club that can pay him more. And now Enzo Maresca is proven to prefer moving to Chelsea, because of course Chelsea is able to provide a bigger salary than Leicester City.

So for now Leicester City has to start again from scratch with its new coach, Steve Cooper, even though it is certain that his performance will not be better than Enzo Maresca. However, at least Steve also has quite a lot of experience, because he has coached at several Premier League clubs and in the England youth national team. Maybe at least under Steve's guidance, Leicester City can avoid the relegation zone again. In my opinion, this is what Leicester City might be able to achieve next season.

At least, Moresca has started working and preparing to purchase several players which in fact were approved by Chelsea. Unfortunately, Chelsea has not yet signed a player who could be considered excellent. Even though this is not a guarantee, in essence it will be able to stimulate the team's spirit to be even more compatible.

Chelsea is trying to sign with some pretty good players, but it always runs into obstacles so that in the end they have to continue or look for other alternatives. So far, Chelsea have Omari Hutchinson and also Tosin Adarabioyo

 They have carried out various negotiations to get the player they are after. And so far, indeed, they seem to be targeting young players, expect for certain players. Some of them yes:
- Aaron Anselmino
- Murillo
- Marc Guiu
- Omari Kellyman
and several other names. However, this is still at the negotiation stage, it's just that some of them are just waiting for approval.

It has always been the culture of many middle class clubs or those rated lower to actually give opportunities to their employees when a bigger club offer comes. The Leicester city club we’re going to later get a good coach but the problem will be will Enzo Maresca gets such opportunity in his life again? I doubt. It was a good move as Leicester also had to get a buy out clause from Chelsea which was a good profit made. Their new head coach Copper is also not that bad too, he would most likely continue from where Enzo left, that’s one advantage of being a little club manager, the expectations are not much which reduces the pressure on the manager

In EPL, Arsenal actually have great improvement in the last 2 seasons. They could be the runner-up in a row (2022-2023 and 2023-2024). In the season 2023-2024, they were very close to be the winner, the point gap was 2 points only. I think Arsenal can be the winner in the next season if they could take a lesson from the previous seasons and be more ready in the next season. Moreover, Liverpool seems no longer to join the race for the title and Man City looks not so strong anymore. In fact, Arsenal never got a lose when they played Man City in the last season. It should be Arsenal opportunity to win the title in the next season if Arsenal can improve their attacking line. TBH, I really expect that they can sign a top striker like Osimhen, Dovbyk, Openda, or Guirassy.

In UCL, their stats in the last season looked not so badly.

Arsenal fixture and results in UCL 2023-2024


Well, they could reach quarter-final and play against Bayern Munich at that time. Even if they were defeated by Bayern Munich but they already played well. The aggregate was 2-3, it was only 1 difference goal. I'm sure Arsenal has a chance to win the match if Arsenal has a better striker. Gabriel Jesus is decreasing his performance a lot, this is one of the problem of Arsenal attacking line.

In recent times, Manchester city have been able to get the highest number of premier league trophy in the last five seasons, and they have aswell have the longest run of a winning streak, no team in the premier league has been able to get the same kind of performance in the premier league recently, Arteta has been trying with Arsenal, if they put in more effort they are going to be able to win the trophy this season.

I believe that pep is a very good coach and can be emulated by the other teams in the premier league that are wanting to be successful and have such good records as that of pep, I believe that in the coming season, Manchester city will be able to win the premier league again this new season, making it the fifth they will be winning in a row I'd which will be the longest streak in the history of premier league, but then Arsenal can be able to stop Manchester city from making this record but then pep will want to Make sure to get this record before he leaves Manchester city as he may be leaving after next season.

For now Arsenal still have the highest record of the most number of won premier league trophy I the history of premier league, I'm even thinking that it's possible to have another team winning the league too this season and that can be made possible by Liverpool and Chelsea who are looking more promising in their performance last season except for the fact that they have some changes in their coach and players

One of the challenges is that the new owner is not good at making decisions, so coaches are often fired. However, I hope this decision produces good results for Chelsea, although I don't expect much. Because Chelsea's mistake at the moment is that they don't believe in the process. Any coach who does not perform well is immediately fired. I hope Enzo can give his best, even though he won't be optimal at Chelsea, but Chelsea doesn't need to fire him because building a team takes time and patience can't be done instantly.

Chelsea fans should also learn that there are no bad coaches until you see their performance. It is possible that this decision will mean that Enzo will suffer the same fate as Alonso. look at what he did with Bayer 04 Leverkusen, which was initially doubted by the big teams, his performance was truly extraordinary. This is because of the extraordinary support from the club owners, the great support and trust from the supporters will help the coach to be successful. So basically the Coach needs the support and trust of every fan. If this is fulfilled, I am optimistic that Enzo will make Chelsea consistent again and able to compete again in the EPL League.

Arsenal's volatile state became a little difficult for them to control which made massive changes happen quickly.
This season did not happen like that because they really competed until the end for the Premier League but it cannot be denied that for previous seasons they always experienced the same situation where they were unpredictable when their performance was very good followed by a very rapid decline in performance and vice versa where when their performance was bad they could sometimes immediately reverse it in a better direction.

This obstacle continues to repeat for Arsenal and Arteta is still unable to minimize this and change for the better. Although indeed from each season they can always be a stumbling block for other clubs and even in this season they are even able to make Manchester City hassle until the final match but as long as their winning mentality cannot be formed and Arteta still cannot fix Arsenal's seasonal problems then in the end it is a little difficult to expect more. But if Arteta can fix that then indeed they can get the trophy just like the previous 2 decades where Arsenal were very victorious at that time.

One of the strict clubs currently are Chelsea because the moment they are hot getting any form of the result the next thing will be how to fire the coach and am always thinking because you don't expect the coach to perform magic to start getting results and that is were Chelsea is failing they need to give their coaches enough time to stable and also be able to put the club in other because Chelsea problem is not even the players but okay what is not the problem. The condition that Chelsea is currently they need to keep it slow for them to actually get better at playing as usual but rush will not work. And I feel Enzo Maresca will do better since his job is at stake, I hope he can accomplish what the management wants from him. If not he should also kiss his job Good bye. For since he accepted then he as to work. Congrats to Chelsea.

Many people believe Enzo Maresca will succeed with Chelsea next season because he brought Leicester who was relegated the last two seasons back to the Premier League. Being successful in the Championship does not ensure that he will be successful with Chelsea next season. I doubt Enzo Maresca strength with Chelsea next season because he is in his first year with the club, and we have seen how difficult it is for Pochettino to adapt to the players. Maybe Maresca has a strategy to connect to the players so fast before the next season. Of course, Chelsea management must be patient with the new coach for the next season, they should not put too much pressure on him to achieve good results. If Enzo Maresca failed to achieve what they wanted, the management chose to fire him. I believe that some managers will reject a Chelsea offer due to their attitude of sacking coaches.

I agreed with you, man. Arsenal have shown every sign of being able to win the Premier League, but they always later get kicked out by Manchester City. I can assure you that Arsenal will get this trophy next season because Arteta has made the same mistake in two seasons, which is kind of bad for them, though they really tried their best for the past two seasons that they missed out on. I can’t lie, but you know the main thing we want to see is the result (the trophy). They always later slack. I believe Arteta will make such a mistake next season again, and he will be able to make us Arsenal fans proud. I believe they will do better next season. 

Of course, Chelsea must have a big target for the next season. They seems to target to finish in the UCL zone. If Enzo Maresca fails to improve the position of Chelsea in EPL table since the early of the season, he may be fired in the middle of the season. It is true that Chelsea management very often changes the coach. Even if Pochettino can improve the performance of Chelsea, Chelsea management still fired him. So no doubt Enzo Maresca will be fired as well if he can't show positive progress on Chelsea performance. Honestly, I'm quite doubtful that Enzo Maresca won't stay in Chelsea until the end of the season.
