Title race is already ended due to big lead of Liverpool while Arsenal is also set for keeping their spot as they are also having 58 points which are good even their injuries worries and workload hurting them badly, but they have done good job in this season. Many teams were able to have good performance which increase competitiveness and challenges at the top even few teams are had decline into their performance like Aston Villa and Bournemouth, Brighton is always amazing club.
Indeed the team Maresca took over when taking up the managerial job at Chelsea was a team already groomed by Pochettino before his departure. He deserves acknowledgment for setting up the pace. However Marseca still has so much work to do picking up from where Pochettino left off. His major objective this season would be finishing in top four and gaining Champions league qualification.
