Good day all,
So these stupid owners don't want to buy any defender(s) or midfielder to reinforced our team, this winter window?
I'm tired of this club

Maresca’s biggest problem is his lack of confidence in moment of crisis.
Against Manchester United, once Chelsea went down to 10 men, he immediately withdrew all his attackers for defenders, sending the wrong signal to both his players and the opposing team . You can’t defend for 80 minutes without committing an error.
The same happened against Brighton today , after another red card, he again sacrificed his attackers for defenders, leaving the team with a weak striking force and inviting constant pressure.
In football, mentality is half the battle. By pulling all attackers and going into a defending mode, you are showing your weak point to the enemy. And of course, once your opponent sees it, they will exploit it. Top managers find ways to project strength even in difficult circumstances, Maresca’s approach has been the opposite.
This is what happened in both games.

I like him , but his weakness mindset in managing crisis makes him unsuitable for a club with Chelsea’s ambitions. If Chelsea truly want to win the Premier League, they need a manager with boldness, belief, and a fearless winning mentality.
To be fair, Maresca may still win cup trophies but the Premier League is different. To win the league, you need bravery, consistency, and the ability to impose your style across 38 games week in week out, but with this kind of weak mentality, even if he stays at Chelsea for 20 years, Maresca will not win a single EPL title.
You said it all bro.
I think he's unambitious too

Realtord43:
why do you want Maresca to be sack?
Because He's not a competent and reliable Coach. He's way too coward and doesn't have good tactical approach to games. He's not a fighter and doesn't teach good and beautiful football as evident by Chelsea ever non beautiful football that lack coordination or good transition.
They should just sack him to save their season.

Today's match is Arsenal vs Donnarumma.
Chelsea and Manure cannot compete with their current Goal keepers
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Maimakawa1: 5:37pm On Sep 21, 2025
Look at how Tijjani has adapted well and dictating play in the mighty EPL.

BlueRayDick:
If Man city had any other person in goal , they would’ve conceded by now
Chelsea board and Maresca said they're good to go with Sanchez.
These people are not ready to compete with Sanchez, Tosin, Chalobah and Enzo in the Middle

Can outscore work today ?
Of course yes, if Ireti did not sub our attackers and introduce Garnacho as well.
This I'm very sure of, but He chose the coward’s way

MorataFC:
I always sit on the fence when people are discussing Maresca's tactics, but tonight he killed the game by pulling attackers after the red card. Instead of trying a new tactic, he chose the coward’s way and gave United the chance to bomb forward. It’s impossible to defend for over 80 minutes without committing errors.

If I were him, this would have been the perfect time for me to try another tactic, because nobody could blame me if I lost, I have already have an excuse for the defeat. But he chose the easiest way, the coward’s way.
He's simply a mid. And it is against Manure of all teams who were trashed by Grimsby Town

Maimakawa1:
My people, I Ireti is not a Coach at all.
Why sacrifice all the attacking trio who are at least capable of scoring a goal and introduce a Snail-like Tosin for a very poor opponent like Manure?
He should just sacrifice that Ghost Worker and we'll have trashed and outscore Manure.
The worst part of it is that Manure too were later reduced to 10 men.
I'll not forgive Ireti wallahi. Today is the first time I've stopped watching our match and walked out of the Cinema when I saw this guy is bringing Tyrique George of all our players in the bench, when we're 2 nil down.
Hmmmmm

They look leggy and lethargic. Santos and Garnacho should've started.
Yes oooo.
Santos and Garnacho in place of Enzo and Neto.
But I don't think He can bench the Ghost worker no matter what

He still played Neto and Enzo.

They need a break.
He should have start Garnacho and give that boy ample time na

Good day all.
I think Enzo started to change his game for the good. May be someone has drawn his attention, since Maresca didn't see any problem with his game.
But Maresca is clueless up to now.
Over sabi dey kill young managers for EPL.
He cost us this 2 points

Guehi’s composure is sth worthy of emulation. Every player should copy. I want to see the magic isak will perform at Liverpool. I checked his stats at Newcastle for three seasons and he scored just 27 goals. Barely short of 30 goals haaland surpassed in one season
Isak is probably wanting to have as many trophies as possible in his career which is quite understandable

Jackson problem has always been finishing. Why I wanted him to be number 2 to a reliable striker but the board just want potentials, so they went got two potentials and Jackson wants out

If Jackson can bully EPL defenders to create chances for himself even though he can't Finish them, Bundesliga should be very very soft for him..

Only game time will stop him from destroying that nonsense league
You said it all. We hope Guiu develop excellently with the game time opportunity he got now

He was chased out by the World champions to go and sit on the bench of a Burndisleaguedown champions. Change your glasses.
this is just it. We wish him success there. We better managed Guiu and collected the loan money

Nope.

Said it gazillion times - This ain't FPL. lol
You're right oga FBS. I hope we can be seeing the results even if it was on monthly basis as all my players are banging goals and assists every match day, more especially our new messiah JP, Olise, Yamal and Yildiz.
Many thanks

And we are playing rubbish football. Complete nonsense, we are far off from competing for EPL
That's my point since last week. We're neither organised nor playing good football. Even these small teams play beautiful football than Chelsea to be frank, and I think the reason is just our VERY weak midfield cutcee of Enzo, as we cannot hold ball or make good passes
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Maimakawa1: 8:28pm On Aug 30, 2025
I'm becoming to hate Enzo the more for not letting Joao Pedro to take today's PK and gather more goals for golden boot this season. Chelsea should device means of motivating their attackers.
Goal scoring is not his primary duty and there's no way He can managed to be an EPL top scorer of the season

The creativity upfront is lacking because there’s no midfield to support them. Literally everyone is trying to cover for the ghostworker, while he strolls on the pitch like a pregnant 10months old woman.
Wallahi He's the problem of this team now, though He use to put a good fighting spirit.

Trying to cancel the Jackson deal to Bayern after they already agreed to it and the player has travelled to Germany just cos of hamstring injury to Delap is shameful from the Chelsea board.. Very very shameful stuff

Or did they think Delap was some form of super human that won't get injured throughout the course of the season
It is shameful act indeed, especially since the loan amount is much.
They should let him go please.

His agent is refusing too

In hopes they finalize the deal before Chelsea asks him to come back
I hope Jackson deal went through as I don't want see this Jaki(don.key) Jackson in our line-up forever. I endured enough from him, Werner and Mumuduekwe.

The club were never serious about xavi.


Know this and know peace, they didn't even send a bid or negotiate price

We don't need xavi.
That's just it. I think that FFP is another factor because of the books balancing. Simons cannot bench Palmer or Enzo except for rotational purpose

The squad that we had right now should've won against that team in any system available to humankind.

The Grimsby game transcend systems or tactics. That's a loss that only stems from a deep rooted issue within the club/squad and I don't think it's a coincidence that it involves players like Dalot and Onana whose mediocrity and mistakes have been a burden on this club for multiple seasons.

Amorim, for all his faults, was spot on when saying we didn’t have any intensity whatsoever. A 352/433/442 whatever the Bleep formation you want doesn’t even matter at that point.

They looked like the premier league team during that first half. We looked completely off it.
You're said it all.
There's no way Manure should lose against a 4th Division team, especially considering the players Amorim paraded for the match
