After a bright start in the first few months of this season by Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have hit a brick wall in terms of consistency of performance and results, and that’s led the Blues hierarchy to make a decision with regards to sacking Maresca.
The manager isn’t backwards in coming forwards with his opinion, and Robert Sanchez is one Chelsea player that certainly knows where he stands in terms of his current position in the squad.
Enzo Maresca sacking decision made
Maresca’s communication has always been direct and to the point, regardless of whether it might upset a few egos in the dressing room, and that could also be part of the reason why Chelsea have reached the decision that they have
