For all the people like @siphillipssport I want to say one thing I understand that Chelsea board is a complete joke but that doesn't make marasca an Angel he is a snake and will be a snake. He has sabotaged Chelsea for city in December itself.

For all the people who have problem with Chelsea board, I understand but do not forget Antonio conte also had disagreements with the board at that time but instead of just resigning he waited for the season to finish and then left the club more respectable way unlike maresca.

Enzo Maresca was the third highest paid coach in the Premier League. When he was hired, it was agreed that a review would take place after the second season. That means if he failed to make the UCL in year one — he wouldn’t be sacked because the club wanted to give him time to build and prove himself. This was supposed to be a long-term project after all. For the exact same reason, if he hit his targets — such as making the UCL and winning the Club World Cup — he also wouldn’t immediately get a massive pay rise before that review. The club wanted to see whether it was sustainable before handing the third highest paid coach in the league an even bigger contract. Again — long-term project. What’s the rush? As for the sporting directors getting pay rises — they had already been here close to three years at that point, so it’s not really a comparable situation whether people agree with it or not. The reality is that Maresca’s ego got inflated by a bit of success and interest from other clubs. He tried to use that leverage to force Chelsea into giving him a huge new deal. The club didn’t want to do that because it wasn’t what had originally been agreed. He had a meeting with Juve. He had multiple meetings with Man City. That’s complete disrespect towards Chelsea. Then he eventually decided to leave with essentially no notice — a few days before facing the club he had practically already agreed to join this summer. There’s plenty of things you can criticise the club for, but standing their ground and refusing to be strong-armed by a Championship coach they gave an opportunity to — and made one of the best paid managers in the entire league — shouldn’t be one of them. He’s a great coach, but he’s also an unstable personality. The modern version of Antonio Conte.

@siphillipssport Just stfu. Lies or not, maresca's action clearly indicate that he did all this to join city. Exactly when rumour swirl around that guardiola maybe leaving city, maresca changed his agency and within a month he resigned. Coincidence i think not. So please stfu shameless si

They’re so shameless. Nothing to do with the fact you replaced him with another inexperienced yes man and the squad build hasn’t been good enough and lacked balance and key elements, no? Hideous this lot with their PR. Nobody buys it.

After Enzo Maresca left Chelsea, Behdad Eghbali made a statement that Enzo’s attitude had changed. He started asking for too much, becoming rude, and there was this growing disconnect. At first, when Egbali said it, we didn’t really understand. We were all against the owners, dragging them, hurling abuse, thinking they were at fault. We didn’t realize they hadn’t given him all the power. Yes, they didn’t hand him every key, but that wasn’t the agreement when Maresca was announced. The understanding was that his role was purely on the pitch, if the board involved him, it was just a formality. And he knew that, but he took the job anyway. I think when Maresca started showing this attitude, especially in interviews, saying that his last two games were the saddest of his career, it was like a cry for help, but also a cry to leave. What we didn’t realize is that, by then, he’d already received an approach from City. They offered good deals, and negotiations were underway. And that’s when we saw Maresca falter. Our form dipped. We went from second to fifth, and even though everyone was having bad spells, it was like the team lost its spark. Arsenal, for example, were getting draws, but we just collapsed. That was the moment City approached him, and we didn’t realize it until it was too late. Maresca was never fully ours; it was us who got it wrong. And now, we have to apologize to our owners. We have to apologize to Egbali.

But maresca is the main reason. Such traitors will destroy any club they are at.

At chelsea he didn't have that liberty, coincidentally he chamges his agency just before he resigned from chelsea. It was all the drama he created of 'worst 24 hours' and what not. That piece of 💩 ruined our season completely. Not saying sd's aren't to blame...

When maresca resigned there was a brief from his side that he will explain everything after sometime. To which i thought, how messed might the chelsea SD that maresca couldn't explain it right now and just like everyone abused blamed chelsea's hierarchy....

As a die-hard Maresca fan, it’s easy to blame BlueCo for everything because they’ve definitely messed up, but Maresca also bailed on Chelsea. He used us as a stepping stone, that Man City agreement didn’t just happen overnight.

@miki_djan @TrifectaSport Stfu, you cannot convince me that he created such a ruckus for just a centre back and even took a exit before jan window. Just go and check as soon as it was confirmed pep was leaving he changed his agency and out of nowhere he started creating these issues. He sabotaged us

False narrative You wanted Maresca to sit as a duck, not get supported and then get the shot when things went bad? Maresca followed every protocol by even informing the board of clubs interested in him But he was insulted for it leading to the worst 48hrs comment He simply chose to do what any of us will do in our workplace. Leave where we are not appreciated and go where we are wanted with better conditions

🚨Stop blaming BlueCo for Enzo Maresca leaving Chelsea. Cold truth: Enzo Maresca used Chelsea as a stepping stone. The moment Manchester City links surfaced and Pep succession talks heated up, he did everything in his power to make his position at Stamford Bridge untenable. He tried to outsmart the board, aired grievances publicly, clashed with the hierarchy and medical staff, and forced their hand. He didn’t get pushed — he engineered his own exit. I don’t blame BlueCo for binning him at all. The real grievance is the panic appointment that followed: handing the keys to Liam Rosenior. It was an understandable short-term call under massive pressure (continuity from the BlueCo network at Strasbourg), but it proved a catastrophic failure. Maresca manipulated the situation, the board folded, and fans were left with the wreckage. Change my mind.

@Bluecoxtra 🚩🚩

Watch out for Geovany Quenda 🕺 at Chelsea. #BlueCo #CFC #Quenda

Just one comment since announcement and apparently he is too active.

@RayzSar Big 2026 and vinicius and mbappe are considered world calss players 😭😭

He failed at Real Madrid with Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo but Chelsea fans thinking he will them the league with Garnacho and Gittens 😂

@TouchlineX Oh no, but deco spent the entire barca budget on a flight to london😱

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Xabi Alonso presents himself as a problem for Barcelona's interest in Joao Pedro. · Xabi Alonso to Chelsea is a done deal. Whenever he takes over, he has to personally approve all the ongoing transfer operations. · This means that if Alonso wants Joao Pedro to stay at Chelsea, he can say so and abolish Barcelona's possibility to sign the Brazilian. — @sport

@SirAlexas I don't understand the problem with you clowns if you don't like his content or his way just unfollow him and block him

Ornestien drops one tweet and goes on with life, brother will drop 50 of them, just different edits

Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Xabi Alonso as Manager of the Men’s Team. The Spaniard will begin his role on July 1, 2026, having agreed a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge. Welcome to Chelsea, Xabi!

@VdykCFC A coach whose entire philosophy is "RUN" is not a coach.

Andoni Iraola, right person, wrong timing. There were only 2 candidates that were perfect for the job other than you and one of them (which was Alonso) just happened to be available Top top coach, wherever you go next, I will be here supporting you. In another lifetime, gaffer🕊️

@NicoSchira Pep should stay, mareca sabotaged chelsea's season for this job. He deserve nothing

🚨 Excl. - Enzo #Maresca has an agreement in principle with #ManchesterCity for a contract until 2028 with the option for 2029. #MCFC have designeted former Chelsea’s manager as #Guardiola’s replacement if Pep leaves. It’s up to Guardiola decides what to do. Maresca is waiting
