The Chelsea ownership are known to appreciate Arsenal’s model and specifically Mikel Arteta according to Ben Jacobs.

The Blues returned to winning ways with a 2-0 win against Everton on Saturday to bring to an end a four game winless run in all competitions.

Cole Palmer opened the scoring with his first goal since September, whilst Malo Gusto doubled the lead just before half time.

Chelsea ownership appreciate Arsenal model

You would have expected Enzo Maresca to be happy with a much needed three points, but he used his post match press-conference as an opportunity to vent his frustration. 

It’s believed Maresca has an internal problem at Chelsea, but what the specific issue is remains unclear, but he’s reportedly expected to clarify his comments before the game against Cardiff.

A lot has been made of the ownership’s model, and Maresca potentially being frustrated with recruitment, but Jacobs has reported for talkSPORT that the Chelsea hierarchy appreciate Arsenal’s model.

The report adds they specifically appreciate Gunners boss Mikel Arteta, in news which is unlikely to go down well with supporters.

Maresca is on track to deliver Champions League football again, which is thought to be the minimum target, but fans want to see the Blues challenging for the league again.

The former Leicester boss guided Chelsea back to the Champions League last season, whilst also winning the Conference League and Club World Cup.
