Chelsea's performance in the previous season was weak. If Chelsea had not been able to win the matches of the season, we would not have seen Chelsea in the top 10 of the table. It cannot be said that Chelsea is very strong this season. However, Chelsea's performance has been relatively stable.
Enzo Maresca is quite good as a coach. I would say that Enzo Maresca's match strategies are quite effective. Now Chelsea management should give Enzo Maresca big funds to strengthen their squad. I believe that if Enzo Maresca gets big funds, he can strengthen the Chelsea team even more. And maybe this team will be able to compete for the title as well.
So far Enzo Maresca can be said to be quite successful in bringing Chelsea to improve its performance, but if we talk about their less than optimal performance for me it is reasonable, especially since this season is Maresca's first season handling Chelsea. Besides, if we talk about Chelsea being less strong, it is very reasonable and I think Maresca still needs some newcomers to add strength to his team. Based on my assessment Chelsea needs a center forward who can be relied on in almost every match, because Nicolas Jackson is not always consistent to be relied on in terms of scoring goals. Although Nicolas Jackson has actually improved his performance, Chelsea still needs a pure striker who is sharp and established. Well, currently Chelsea is in 6th place in the standings, Maresca still has the opportunity to bring his team to finish in the top four of the standings. As you said, it could be that next season Maresca will be supported by bringing in some of the players he is targeting. Moreover, if Chelsea gets a ticket to enter the Champions League, they will automatically strengthen their team to be much more competitive. Well, let's just see how Chelsea plays their matches until the end of the season.
