- Enzo Maresca will be a massive flop at Chelsea! Or will he not? Fantastic combination play, a unique 3-2-4-1 formation, a goalkeeper operating as an extra defender and the most aggressive pressing you'll ever see - that's just a small part of what you'll get to know about Maresca and his football!
Will he boost Chelsea beyond recognition or will he become a laughing stock? You are about to find out the answer in this video!
Enzo Maresca at Chelsea
Enzo Maresca has officially become Chelsea's new head coach after Mauricio Pochettino's unexpected departure! The Italian manager has penned a contract that runs until June 2029 with an option to extend it until the summer of 2030. The Blues will pay Leicester City a compensation package for Maresca's services, which could be just over £10 million.
“Appointing a coach from the Championship and without much experience for that kind of money? It sounds absolutely insane!” Chelsea fans shouted at first. But the club's owner, Todd Boehly, and his management team chose Enzo for reasons, and let us explain them in detail!
Real reasons why Chelsea chose Maresca
According to Sky Sports, Chelsea sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley were actively looking for a replacement for Pochettino and considered the pros and cons of each available coach. They both decided that Enzo Maresca was the perfect fit for the strategic vision of the sports project planned at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea bosses have been amazed by how well Maresca knows the team's squad and are intrigued by his connections with Pep Guardiola, adds Evening Standard's Nizaar Kinsella.
Maresca is one of Pep's many “pupils” and Chelsea hope Enzo will succeed just like Mikel Arteta did at Arsenal. Well, they do share similar stories: they both assisted Guardiola at different times, but left to start their own careers.
Besides, Maresca learned a lot from former West Ham United coach Manuel Pellegrini. Enzo worked as his assistant in the 2018/19 season.
“In terms of inspiration as a manager, for sure, Manuel Pellegrini and Pep Guardiola both. They have been very important for me”.
Therefore, now Chelsea's board seems to come up with a clear idea: the team must be consistent at winning games through ball possession and by taking the initiative for attacks. Maresca's football perfectly fits the description! But what style of play did Enzo set up at Leicester City? Get ready for the most interesting part!
What kind of football does Enzo Mareschi play?
Enzo Maresca's game philosophy is based on five principles:
1) Intricate dominance in possession;
2) Deep build up;
3) Controlling the game;
4) Occupying the right spaces;
5) High “man to man” counter pressure to regain possession.
The Italian's favorite formation at the Foxes ranks was a 4-3-3 with adjustments to 3-2-4-1 or 3-2-5 during build-up and possession.
Under Maresca, Leicester always launched their attacks slowly, but thoughtfully and with full control of the situation.
The Foxes have been racking up their ball possession percentage, making it the second highest average in the Championship last season at 61%. Only Southampton's figure was higher - 65%.
In Maresca's vision, the build-up should start with sharp but well-calculated passes in a 3-2-4-1 formation. One inverted fullback goes to the central midfield area, leaving three defenders in the back. The goalkeeper comes out of the goal when needed, becoming the fourth defender and offering himself for passes!
In the center of the pitch, the relocated full-back and central midfielder form a pentagon-like shape with the defenders and stretch the opposition's pressing. The two insides play higher and search for free spaces between the lines. They either open up for long passes or draw attention away from the centre-forward or wingers.
The forward continues to spearhead attacks, but from time to time he drops into deep areas to receive passes from defenders and quickly involve the two central midfielders or insides. At the same time, the wingers stretch the rivals' fullbacks on the flanks.
In other words, baffling and dominating every part of the pitch is the basis of Maresca's philosophy! No wonder why Leicester's attacks, which result in goals, tend to take 40-50 passes and feature all 11 players!
As for the defense phase, the newly-minted Chelsea boss chooses a 4-5-1 or 4-1-4-1 formation. The inverted full-back returns to the defensive right-flank. The insides come down to help the central midfielder. Wingers and the centre-forward also drop lower to their half of the pitch.
Among other things, Maresca places great emphasis on suppressing counter-attacks. Last season, other teams often tried to outplay Enzo's team in this aspect, though they conceded only 41 goals in 46 fixtures, the fewest of any other team.
The ultra-aggressive man-to-man pressing also made the difference.

I hope he succeeds, but if he has a slow start i hope the board will stick with him and give him time to implement his ideas.
This constant changing of managers is ruining the club. Maybe it would be better to sack those who select the managers?
True...
Sack Paul and Stewart ... That's all
This is the 4 times am telling chelsea fans tht ths gaffer will succeed at chelsea.
Nope he won't will be sacked by January
He looks solid. Really solid. Serious. Workaholic, everything. I trust him.
Only thing that I don't like is that Chelsea is a counter-attack team since the times of Damien Duff and Arjen Robben. The season that expired recently, Chelsea went up the table when they stopped obssessing over possession and started hitting the speed.
Galager is important because of preesing.
Excellent at pressing all the homies
That’s cool, what about on the ball?
@@teejayabam7784 considering he was 75th percentile and above for virtually every metric that can possibly be measured in a footballer compared to all midfielders in the top five leagues of Europe last season, and he carried 100m signings, what do you think?
For me just sack the medical staff and all the Nutritionist period
Not Coaches
Gallagher is a must to his game.
I don't think he will succeed at chelsea but hope he proves me wrong
Of all the couches tht were shortlisted moresca is the best.lets give him time
aahh too many passes. possession didnt win u games. slow build up? im not ready for this 😩
U not ready is your problem.. not the manager..😅
@@jaybondd9963 ok kid 👌🏼
Plus, loosing game where you ve got possession in so frustrating 😅
You nailed it. Chelsea isn't built for possession. I worry we may see slow build up and unnecessary possession football which has proven not to always win you games, especially when the opponent is smart when they counter 😢
@@dstar1166 Poch had no plan with possession football
I have a great feeling about Enzo Maresca and the striker that Chelsea will sign eventually.
Rilex, we need focus on process,not to giving high hope on first season
😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ we gonna be by your side
Oh my days no one know vini is on Chelsea?
Startling out olisse in
Sterling out
This dude is an outright proven winner, those fans who are hoping are still silly.
He is good big question is will he be succeeded at Chelsea or a struggle let's see cause im tired of jumping to conclusions im waiting for results
A ball playing goalkeeper is crucial in his system. No room for petrovic then cause he is suck at passing.
always room to develop though
This is pure rubbish.Petrovic is the most comfortable ball playing goalkeeper we have presently.Except you saying we should sell all the goalkeepers we have
@@rotimilalemi2206 i guess you watch chelsea games from the back of your tv
@@AL-ur5oc I guess you don't watch Chelsea games at all.kindly state any CHELSEA goalkeeper currently better than him
Petrovic can learn long passing that's why we have GK Coach
if you are active on tweeter... everything mentioned in this video was a tweet somewhere
😂😂😂
Where do you guys get the nerve and energy each and every time Chelsea hierarchy appoint new head coach first was potter, poch now maresca you guys stop fooling people chelsea is not chelsea anymore
Chelsea no one at Chelsea is CHELSEA
Arteta did not succeed at Arsenal
yes, he didn't achieved the goal but we cannot say what he does is a failure. He is a little short of the competition, unfortunatelly for them.
He took them from frequently finishing 8th-6th, to title contenders. Of course, they haven't won anything major yet but to do that with a club seemingly cursed in similar fashion to Tottenham is commendable.
Yeah yeah yeah, bla bla bla!
By this time next season, another coach will be sought for.
Wat U need olise for. Madueke better...
Ur insane
@@XxdripsxX yep. Olise can be world class.
Go to school
Just average player but madueke will became a monster.......remember olise got a lot of game time last season but madueke didn't.........just a use of mind
Madueke could be a good super sub but he is definetely not better than Olise
Olise rejected Chelsea to stay at Crystal Palace😂😂😂😂😂
where did you get that news from
They got a better player in Cole Palmer
Not true
@@officialgadafi1359 yes that 1 player will carry chelsea to the prem title, its not jsit about 1 player mate
he did the last tranfer season but wasn't his decision. The CP didn't want to sell it was clear he was forced to stay.
This man almost bottled Championship with a squad that is much better than the rest of the clubs in the Championship.
Let him be. We do not give a damn about that. All in all, he won the championship so stop crying
He won the league though and he lost one of his core player in casedai in January back to Chelsea some players to injury and he wanted sensi from inter all to no avail also he made Jan vestergaard and faes look decent i mean vestergaard cmon
Arteta bottling the league was worse😂
They had injuries,don’t ignore that
Then What do you have to say about vicent kompany appointment to bayern
