Former England midfielder Shaun Wright-Phillips has praised Enzo Maresca for his management of Chelsea, despite the fact that he still has room for improvement.

    The Italian replaced Mauricio Pochettino. Who was sacke last summer, คาสิโนออนไลน์ UFABET ฝากถอนรวดเร็ว เริ่มต้นเล่นง่าย and has led the club to fourth in the Premier League and a place in the Europa Conference League. Wright-Phillips, who played for the Blues from 2005 to 2008, praise Maresca’s performance. Although he still needs to adjust to his preferred style of play.

    “They’ve done well, I think it was more the mistakes that cost them points,” Wright-Phillips said. “I think they’ve done well in the run-up to Christmas in a number of ways. Whether it’s scoring goals or the teams that have made them mistakes and getting away with conceding goals, then they’ve gone and scored goals and killed off games.”

    “It helps fill some gaps in terms of (Robert) Sanchez making mistakes or bad passes in defence, like (Jarrod) Bowen getting in and scoring goals. Those mistakes are still there because it’s still too early for Maresca to play the way he wants to play. He’s still finding the best partner at centre and who he wants to be the number one in goal.”

    “So there are still areas to work on. But for me I think he’s done a great job. With the players he’s got to sort out what he needs. And what he needs from the team to play the way he wants. I think he’s done a great job.”

    Maresca currently has a record of 21 wins, 7 draws and 7 losses in 35 games in charge of Chelsea. The team’s next match is against Brighton in the FA Cup fourth round this Saturday.
