Chelsea are preparing for the visit of English capital rivals Arsenal at the time of writing. The pair of famous clubs from England have met many times over the years, and the games are hotly contested encounters. And the match should be no different on this occasion after a bit of extra spice was added. This time Gunners manager Mikel Arteta is the culprit. The former Manchester City coach and Pep Guardiola disciple has been accused of lying. So what has the AFC boss been saying ahead of the Blues clash in the Premier League?
In the meantime, another Citizens-related matter at hand requires our attention. The current Chels gaffer and likewise ex-Man City staff member is the focus of the next story; Enzo Maresca is said to have revealed a Man City secret. I have read his comments and they are not sensational at all. In fact, the Italian has a definite point which chiefly eludes some EPL chiefs. But what did Maresca reveal about an elite team approach off the pitch? And is it something we hope CFC adopt at this point?
This is a big one. A match that will undeniably and ultimately disclose how far Maresca has taken the Blues whilst at a stage of infancy during his tenure. And we shall learn how good the Gunners truly are when facing adversity like some poor results, performances and significant injuries.
A well-fought draw would undoubtedly bolster Blues hearts and minds for the remainder of this pretty club-defining season. But a win would send the squad, board and fan base’s confidence sky high.
We all know victory would be important and solidifying for the west London outfit, but just how likely is that outcome on Sunday afternoon? Well, the red side from north London appear to be gaining strength again. I would say the contest could tip in either direction merely due to two factors: Martin Odegaard and Cole Palmer. The inclusion and competence of either star would potentially swing the tie for either team.
Why have Chel fans urged others not to believe what the Arsenal head coach says?
“Chelsea fans don’t buy Mikel Arteta’s comments
Many Chelsea supporters on social media are convinced that Rice will be in Arsenal’s starting line-up this weekend after hearing Arteta’s comments.”
Maresca is an advocate of longevity for managers at top-flight clubs and beyond. And why wouldn’t he be?! He’s basically advocating to be given more time at the CFC helm himself!:
“I consider both of them better than the rest.
“The reason why is because one club is working with the same manager for nine years, and the other one is working with the same manager for five years, and this is a big, big, big advantage compared to the rest. So for me, that’s why they are better than the rest”
