Chelsea turmoil after win: Maresca blasts club, Glasner linked 👀 | OneFootball

It was supposed to be an afternoon of revival and smiles, but it turned into yet another psychodrama in Blue style. Victory and venom for Chelsea: the future European rivals of Napoli beat Everton and redeemed the defeat against Atalanta, but the spotlight was all on Maresca. His outburst in the press conference overshadowed the return to three points.

Maresca, a venomous victory: “The worst 48 hours since I’ve been here”

The Italian coach, visibly shaken, launched a frontal attack – albeit without naming names explicitly – at the club's management. “These have been the worst 48 hours since I arrived at Chelsea,” Maresca confessed to the microphones, openly lamenting a lack of support for him and the team during difficult times. To avoid misunderstandings, the coach immediately clarified the recipient of the message: “I’m not referring to the fans, whom I thank.” The target, therefore, is clear: the ownership and the top management at Stamford Bridge, accused of not protecting the group from the criticism of “many people who have not supported us.”

These statements have opened Pandora's box, revealing latent tensions that now seriously threaten the former Leicester coach's stay on the London bench. The English tabloids have already started the coach guessing game, sensing the air of divorce. The hottest name bounced around in recent hours is Oliver Glasner. The current manager of Crystal Palace is highly regarded by the Blues' management: his contract expires next summer, and the work done with the Eagles, who have been brought to commendable league positions despite limited resources, is considered an excellent calling card.
