Despite Chelsea’s good momentum, Enzo Maresca keeps his feet on the ground. According to him, Chelsea cannot yet compete with Manchester City and Arsenal for major trophies.
Enzo Maresca’s debut with Chelsea is going well. Indeed, Chelsea are regaining color and stringing together victories in all competitions. However, Enzo Maresca remains measured regarding the chances of winning the Premier League this season. According to him, the Blues are not yet ready to compete with Manchester City and Arsenal.
« I really don’t think we can compete with City or Arsenal. I really don’t think so because we’re not ready. The reason is that City have worked with the same manager for nine years and Arsenal for five. If you want to fight for big things, you need this time. After Arsenal’s victory over PSG, they interviewed Luis Enrique and he said the same thing: Arsenal have had the same manager for five years and them for only a year and a half. Imagine, we only have three months… It’s a huge difference. So I am convinced that we cannot compete with these clubs. »
