I agree with you. Todd Boehly couldn't put pressure on Enzo Maresca in his first season. New coaches usually need a season or two to adapt and find the right chemistry between players. I think Chelsea's first season will not have good results. Although I hope that at least Chelsea can get a top six position in the standings. Chelsea had spent a lot of money on players in the previous season but they failed to become a star except for Cole Palmer. I haven't heard any rumors regarding Chelsea transfers this season but I hope they can be wiser in managing their finances.

I think Chelsea really want to be in the top four next season in order to be able to play in the Champions League again, not in the top six of the standings even though that kind of target is much more realistic for the new coach and also for several players who have to continue to strive to be better. However, what you said about Enzo Maresca is also true, because if in his first season he immediately came under heavier pressure on the team management, of course this could have made Chelsea's condition worse.

Well, maybe it's true that if Enzo gets too much pressure in his first season at Chelsea then it will only cause him to suffer the same fate as previous coaches at Chelsea. So I think the most important thing is that Enzo just has to keep this squad in the top 10. And I'm sure that without pressure it will actually make a coach more able to produce good results for a team.

And Chelsea has actually made a lot of moves in the transfer market and has acquired 4 additional players in this transfer market. And I'm trying to find out how much it has cost them to get new players and how much money they have made in the sale of some players. And I was quite surprised because the results seemed like Chelsea were in a financially profitable position for this season. But because the player transfer market is still not finished, conditions will continue to change. ¹
