“Getting better and better” – Enzo Maresca names five Chelsea stars he thinks have really improved

Maresca names five players who have really improved under him

There were a number of difficult moments throughout the season especially after Christmas, but the team rallied well and finished really strongly.

Despite achieving what many felt were the targets before a ball was kicked there are still fans who don’t like Maresca, and the 45-year-old has received a lot of criticism for his style of play.

However, in the difficult moments the young squad came of age and showed maturity, especially in the run-in when the pressure was really on.

There were a number of standout performers throughout the season, and the team really improved from the previous season.

Maresca has spoken about the improvement made throughout the season and he named five players he felt had really improved.

“I’ve said many times that you can improve the team if you improve players,” he told Chelsea’s website.

“I have seen since we started that the players are improving, and that is the most important thing. Levi Colwill, Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Marc Cucurella, Noni Madueke, so many of these players are getting better and better.”
