Chelsea is predicted to struggle under Maresca's first season. After Chelsea fired Pochettino, the blues signed Maresca. This decision forces Chelsea to start from the bottom again.
If Maresca didn’t perform well in the first season, then we should expect him to be fired just the way Pochettino was fired. Chelsea doesn’t have patience with their coaches, so if Maresca doesn’t perform well, then he will also be leaving, which is really affecting Chelsea. A coach can’t just fix everything within a season, if the first season of a coach isn’t really good, then the coach should be given more time. Pochettino's performance wasn’t really bad towards the end of last season, which means he was already getting the Perfect squad for Chelsea, but he has been sacked, and the new coach will have to start building his own squad, which might really take time.
So I am not expecting Chelsea to play anything special next season because the coach will have to start building his squad, and it’s not really going to be easy for him to adapt to new players.
