“I can’t take this anymore” “Enzo Maresca should stop” – Noni Madueke finally responds to Maresca’s criticisms
Noni Madueke, the Chelsea winger, has responded to recent remarks from manager Enzo Maresca, who called on him to provide more consistent performances.
Madueke acknowledged the difficulty of accepting criticism but emphasised that Maresca’s words were meant positively and expressed his resolve to improve.
“When the manager criticises you, it’s not always nice, but I do know it’s coming from a great place and he is trying to improve me,” Madueke explained.
The 22-year-old reflected on the need to take constructive criticism in stride, focusing on personal development and contributing to the team.
“You have to take it on the chin and try and get better every day, which I try and do, especially with my goals and assists. It’s about helping the team in every aspect, and thankfully I had a hand in the second and third goal. Now we move on to Man City and try and do the same.”
Madueke also highlighted his potential for growth and his commitment to realising it:
“I’m 22 years old, this is my second full season in the Premier League, and for sure there are many aspects of my game that can grow. I work hard every day to try and do so. I don’t think I’m anywhere near the potential I have inside me, and I’m just trying to fulfil that.”
Madueke’s self-awareness and willingness to learn underline his ambitions as he continues to evolve as a key player for Chelsea. With big games like Manchester City on the horizon, he is determined to meet the high expectations placed on him.
