Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca seeks return to old rivalry with Liverpool amid title admission

Enzo Maresca

Enzo Maresca has expressed his desire to reignite Chelsea’s fierce rivalry with Liverpool, though he admits that the Blues are not yet on par with title contenders. While Liverpool has found success in Europe, Chelsea has historically dominated domestically. However, since the American takeover at Stamford Bridge in 2022, Chelsea’s victories over Liverpool have been limited mainly to outbidding them for players like Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia during their billion-pound rebuild.

In regard to Chelsea’s current standing and future potential, Maresca remarked, “I don’t see, at this moment, Chelsea as close to these kinds of clubs for many, many reasons. For sure we work every day to be closer to that club.”

Reflecting on recent performances, Maresca boldly stated, “Our opening weekend loss to City was our best game this season for many reasons. To think where we can be in four games, it is difficult. But it’s not this game that is going to define where we are. We are open-minded in terms of allowing people to take chances and also we are happy to keep people who want to stay.”

On the squad’s current composition, Maresca noted, “Club captain Reece James is making his return to the squad post-hamstring surgery last season, and though he gained his 16th England cap back in March 2023, in this moment, we need to think to use him once a week.”

He also pointed out disciplinary matters by stating, “Both Marc Cucurella and Wesley Fofana are currently serving suspensions.”
