While a majority of the footballers across Europe are currently on an international break to represent their respective nations, Enzo Maresca is cooking something exciting at Stamford Bridge.
The Chelsea manager is working with his 14 players who stayed at Cobham. Among them stand some notable names like Jadon Sancho who joined Chelsea for a season-long loan spell from Manchester United on the brink of the deadline day.
Former Leicester City midfielder Marc Albrighton, who played under Maresca’s managership at Leicester last year, opened up Maresca’s capabilities. The 32-year-old gave a glimpse of what the 44-year-old tactician is capable of by utilizing such short gaps.
Albrighton gave a reminder of the 2023-24 season when Lecister came back with three back-to-back wins. He highly applauded the Italian’s courage to produce something out with what he planned out with some chunk of guys and try to deliver. Albrighton mentioned:
“Previously, international breaks were, ‘right, have a week off, lads, if you’re going away’, he [Maresca] was like, no, we’re trying this. We’re going to try this out and see. Sure enough, in the next game we are playing that system.”
