When Chelsea were in the second position of the league table earlier this season, Enzo Maresca in different occasions told reporters that they weren't a contender for the English Premier League title this season - a statement many thought were a kind of sarcasm but now, we understand better why he never believed his team would be consistent enough to fight for the league title. Chelsea's defeat yesterday was expected to me since Aston Villa were the home team so I wasn't surprised they lost that game.
Marcus Rashford to me was the best player in that game. The on-loan Manchester United forward is enjoying life at the Villa Park and I ask why did Manchester United manager allow him leave the club? Such a big loss for the Old Trafford club
I believe Enzo Maresca kind of affected the players mentality, I think at that point the players they felt like winning the league was not their goal this season. Their game against Aston Villa yesterday was far from their best, Aston Villa were able to come from a goal down to win the match. It was interesting to see Marcus Rashford performance in that game. His latest performance has left fans and critics wondering why Amorim loaned such a player when they needed him the most but like they say players often do well when they leave Manchester United.
