Amidst a growing chorus of concern from the Stamford Bridge faithful, Chelsea's recent form tells a story of struggle, with a single victory to their name in their last four outings—a win that came against lower-tier Lincoln City in the League Cup. Yet, in the eye of this gathering storm, the man at the helm, Enzo Maresca, projects an aura of unshakable calm.

Rather than focusing on the immediate setbacks, the Blues' head coach is weaving a different narrative for his squad and its supporters. He draws attention to a broader, more resilient six-month panorama, where the team has suffered only a handful of defeats.

We need to stay positive because, firstly, the players need that. Secondly, I don't see any reason for negativity. This morning, the club showed me a statistic: over the last six months, we've lost five matches, four of them after a Chelsea player was sent off.

🚨💙 Chelsea board never had doubts: Enzo Maresca remains the manager and there are no issues or thoughts about immediate change. Barring any surprises over the next 8 months, Maresca seen as ideal manager to lead the project and any review will be made at the end of the season.

With a statistic meant to reassure, Maresca highlights that a significant majority of those losses—four out of six—occurred only after his side was unfairly handicapped by a red card. His message is not one of worry, but a steadfast plea for perspective and continued belief, insisting there is every reason to hold onto positivity.

Of course, we want to win, but in reality, there is no pressure. The only pressure comes from the fact that, as a Chelsea player or coach, you're expected to win matches—there’s no doubt about that. But for various reasons, injuries or red cards, we’ve lost five games in half a year.
