With just two points in third and sixth place on the table, Newcastle United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa are all competing for a spot in the Champions League draw next season.
“We'll get better and better because players will increasingly understand how to play different games,” Maresca said on the improvement of the balance for the Chelsea team.
We have said many times that in higher teams, we can attack faster. It's even harder to defend lows, but we need to understand that. Of course, that's why I've said many times that fans have to trust us because this team will get better and better. It's a journey and they'll learn something.
“As you said, the target is easy to attack quickly because it's from the goal kick. The first choice is always ahead of you when you recover the ball. It's a good target.”
Trevoh Chalobah also made another excellent defensive performance and reported that Chelsea aimed at a centre-back, one of three major signings this summer.
Now, according to the French news outlet enough Mercato, it could be a different ace to sacrifice to make room in the squad.
Chelsea seriously considers Wesley Fofana for sale
According to their information, the man is £200,000 a week, Wesley Fofana. The Frenchman has been treated for a long time again at Chelsea's treatment table, underwent surgery for a hamstring injury in early April, and Maresca will hope he can return to his club's World Cup campaign on time.
But now it is believed that Chelsea is “seriously considering” getting Fofana out this summer, whether on a first-time loan or a permanent deal, and De Zerbi's Marseille holds some hope that they can move to Ligue 1.
The former Leicester City star joins a Chelsea deal that could be worth up to £75m (back in 2022), but despite his impressed by the performances and forms of performance, Fofana's accommodation has also been damaged by fitness issues.
Given that he is one of the most expensive defenders ever in the Premier League, it will be fun to see how much they need to sell Fofana.
