Chelsea remains in the top four, eyeing Champions League qualification, but there are concerns about the manager’s position at Stamford Bridge.
Enzo Maresca is under scrutiny after a surprising reaction following Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Everton.
Club sources suggest that Maresca’s comments were driven by emotion due to recent challenges, yet he did not clarify his position ahead of the upcoming match in Cardiff.
There are worries that sacking him could worsen the situation, with many feeling it would be a mistake for the club.

If a change occurs, the club is likely to continue its trend of supporting younger coaches who can develop alongside the team.
Cesc Fabregas aligns with this approach. He recently began his management career and currently manages Serie A club Como.
Clinton Morrison shared his thoughts on Sky Sports, calling Fabregas a strong candidate if a change is made.
He remarked, “He’d be very good. He’s doing a great job at Como, and he used to play at Chelsea.”
Cesc Fabregas’ management journey
Como sits just outside the European spots in Serie A, only six points from the Champions League positions.
Last season, Fabregas led Como to a victory over Napoli, where Romelu Lukaku had limited impact. The match featured a red card for Napoli’s Jens Cajuste early on.
Fabregas is already being discussed for multiple top positions, with many expecting him to excel in coaching.
He has expressed positive views about Todd Boehly’s setup at Chelsea and may be interested in a return to one of his former clubs if the chance arises.
