This is what journalism should look like. Great interview, great questions. Really impressed with Maresca as a character. I believe he is something special.
Lampard has at least a 140 IQ. You need more than intelligence. You need tactical understanding, man-management, flexibility, in-game-management AND general intelligence. Let's hope Maresca ticks all those boxes.
He played for great coaches, he wins trophy as a footballer, he become assistant for great manager, he won trophy as manager, that my fren is the sign of something special
A true intelligent person is someone that’s able to simplify complicated things… Maresca is truly intelligent. Just hope his philosophy shows and truly elevates Chelsea to the next level
I've always said football is like chess but with autonomous pieces, and the manager is the actual player of the larger game. They are the generals, and I think they are often overlooked on this aspect. To me, the manager is the most crucial difference between success and failure. The best squads can fail with poor managers, and weaker squads can find success with a good one. I'm reserving judgement on this guy for now, but I do like that he shares my observation on both games.
Great interview. Very professional journo. And, Maresca is a breath of fresh air. Hopefully, he does well at Chelsea. Once he fixes that defense, we're good to go!
This guy it’s really passionate about his job. I would want to be with him and talk about Football He kinda mix poetry, philosophy, novels and Football. Aspects that I’m really passionate (documentary/ film) 🎥 Cheers mate
I really loved what I heard and saw from EM. Thanks to the journalist who asked these questions to enable us to have some good quality knowledge of EM to ChelseaFC and all of us - fans and supporters.
fantastic interview, rog! maresca seems quite intelligent & he has a great mentality. hope he can actualize this squad's potential in spite of boehly and his crew of bozos.
This Interview is great. Enzo seems to feel comfortable. How comfortable both of two. I am also comfortable to watch this one. And Enzo talks candidly . I start to like him.( Not chesea fan)
Haven't been bothered to listen to his other interviews, as it's often SSDD. But this was an interesting insight into the man that's taken over Chelsea. If nothing else he's very thoughtful so anything we see unfolding is by design not by chance.
If he can't get a tune out of these players, I won't blame him. He'll simply be the latest in a long line. I won't blame the players, as it will only be further verification that they are somehow less than the sum of their parts when put together on a team. I will blame the owners and the Front Office in a 20/80 ratio.
He is a good talker and like his philosophy. But we have a very big team with many youngsters. Inexperienced and not sure how competent are and if can cope to the challenges. We need a top striker, not Omorodion, an experienced and proven like Vlahovic. We also need a top winger. Have zero trust to Sterling and Mudryk. I also do not like how we treated Chalobah and Petrovic after both had good season.
Hope Maresca will be given the chance to build the team with identity. Not a copy cat of pep. And the owner and directors will start doing the right job instead of signing overpriced kids only
8.47 and theres the problem with this is club, enzo iust said the approach to msn city youth team us similar to chelseas FIRST TEAM, thst is a absolute disgrace
He just said in this interview that he became a better footballer by watching older more experienced players in his team, and now hes coaching a team whos owners dont understand that, and have assembled a kindergarten for him instead. He chose the wrong club to join honestly
They needed to sell 100mil worth of players before the end of June ? Now all of a sudden they spend close to 200mill . I expect them to be deducted 12 points or worse .If this doesn't happen then the likes of Man city newcastle can show the power of wealth . I wont hold my breath .Total joke FFP ... Waste of time and evert.
After blaming the defense mistakes in Real Madrid preseason game, I lost hope in him.. the guy literally giving me Deja vu Potter era.. I now believe he doesn’t really know the Tactics for defense that is why we couldn’t see any defense patterns from defenders
