“I warned them in the dressing room” – Enzo Maresca blames three Chelsea players after 2-0 defeat to Newcastle
Enzo Maresca, the head coach of Chelsea, criticizes the team’s performance against Newcastle United at St. James Park.
Newcastle defeated the Blues 2-0 at St. James’ Park, sending them home from the Carabao Cup with a whimper.
Enzo Maresca made 11 changes from the team that defeated the Magpies 2-1 at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, but it cost him since the home team outplayed his second string.
Enzo Maresca was seen yelling at Chelsea Stars following the final whistle. According to reports, the Italian manager first questioned Chelsea’s defenders during halftime.
Following the match, Enzo Maresca commented
“There are a lot of things we need to improve I told them in the dressing room. Because of the publicity against them two days ago, we didn’t give up any opportunities. It was Renato and Marc today, and Moi and Romeo the other day. Two days ago, we performed admirably. Even though we performed admirably tonight, there are still a lot of things we could do better.
Following some Chelsea supporters’ criticism of the Argentine during the match, Enzo Maresca also discusses Enzo Fernandez’s performance against Newcastle.
“I said, for me, we lost the game because of 10 minutes. After that, we lost the control. We need more control but it’s not only from Enzo. It’s in general.” Enzo Maresca says….
Furthermore, on Sunday, the Blues will focus on Manchester United. However, given the notice period issue, it is unclear if Ruben Amorim will be hired by the Red Devils.
