Maresca’s Job at Chelsea in Doubt After Run of Inconsistent Results

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca is facing increasing pressure on his position at Stamford Bridge after a run of inconsistent results that has left the club outside the top four in the Premier League.

Sources report that Chelsea have managed only one win in their past seven league matches, a sequence that has raised concerns within the club about their performance this season.

Internal tensions have been noted following recent results, including a 2-2 draw with Bournemouth that saw some supporters express frustration with Maresca’s in-game decisions.

Chelsea have dropped points from winning positions on multiple occasions, and a string of dropped points has contributed to the difficult league position. If results do not improve before the end of January, Maresca’s future at the club is understood to be at risk, with the coaching role potentially under review.

The situation has been compounded by Maresca’s own remarks after a win earlier this month, when he referred to experiencing his “worst 48 hours” at the club without providing further explanation, a comment that reportedly caused unease among club officials.

Those remarks, combined with tactical decisions that have come under scrutiny, have strained relations between Maresca and some within the club’s hierarchy.

Chelsea’s recent league position, currently outside the Champions League places, and their form in domestic competition are central to the scrutiny of Maresca’s tenure.

Despite leading Chelsea to Champions League qualification last season and securing European silverware, the current downturn has put heightened focus on results over the coming weeks.

Maresca is set to remain in charge for Chelsea’s scheduled matches, including a pivotal trip to Manchester City, but there is no guarantee he will remain beyond January if performance levels do not improve.

The club’s leadership is reported to prefer stability, but contingency planning is underway should the slump continue.
