HOW CHELSEA SETUP UNDER ENZO MARESCA

HOW CHELSEA SETUP UNDER ENZO MARESCA. Yesterday it was How Chelsea setup under Roberto De Zerbi, but it looks today as though Enzo Maresca is pulling away as the favorite to become the new Chelsea manager. Chelsea want to appoint the new manager quickly. Enzo Maresca has been in the running the whole time.
Enzo Maresca, known for his innovative tactical approach, sets his team up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, emphasizing a possession-based system. This strategy involves several key tactical elements designed to maintain control of the game and create scoring opportunities through precise ball movement and spatial exploitation.
Formation and Structure
*Defensive Line:* The back four consists of two center-backs who are adept at playing out from the back, often splitting wide to create passing lanes. The full-backs push high up the pitch, acting as auxiliary wingers in the attacking phase, providing width and stretching the opposition's defense.
*Double Pivot:* In front of the defense, the two holding midfielders, or the double pivot, play a crucial role in both defense and attack. One typically operates as a deep-lying playmaker, responsible for dictating the tempo, distributing passes, and acting as a pivot point. The other midfielder adopts a more dynamic box-to-box role, offering defensive cover and supporting attacks.
*Attacking Midfield Trio:* The trio of attacking midfielders consists of a central attacking midfielder (CAM) or number 10, flanked by two wingers. The CAM operates in the half-spaces, constantly seeking to receive the ball between the lines, create overloads, and link play with the striker. The wingers are inverted, cutting inside to create goal-scoring opportunities and allowing the overlapping full-backs to provide width.
*Lone Striker:* The sole striker plays as a complete forward, capable of dropping deep to link play, making runs behind the defense, and pressing from the front.
Tactical Principles
*Build-Up Play:* Maresca’s team prioritizes building from the back, with the goalkeeper and center-backs initiating attacks through short, precise passes. The aim is to draw the opposition's press, create numerical superiority, and find the free man in midfield.
*Positional Play (Juego de Posición):* Positional play is central to Maresca's philosophy. Players are assigned specific zones and must maintain discipline to occupy these spaces, ensuring optimal spacing and passing options. This positional structure creates triangles and diamonds, facilitating quick, one-touch passing and fluid ball circulation.
*Overloads and Rotations:* The team frequently creates overloads in key areas, particularly in the wide and half-spaces, to outnumber the opposition. Rotations and interchanges between players in these zones disorganize the opposition, opening up passing lanes and opportunities to penetrate the final third.
*Third-Man Runs:* Exploiting third-man runs is a hallmark of Maresca’s approach. The double pivot and CAM often engage in quick one-twos, allowing a third player to make a timed run into space, breaking defensive lines and creating goal-scoring chances.
*Pressing and Counter-Pressing:* Out of possession, Maresca's team employs a high press, aiming to win the ball back quickly and high up the pitch. The wingers and CAM lead the press, supported by the full-backs and double pivot. When possession is lost, immediate counter-pressing ensues to regain control and prevent counter-attacks.
*Transition Play:* Transition phases are meticulously managed. Upon regaining possession, the team looks to exploit the opposition's disorganization with quick, vertical passes. Conversely, defensive transitions focus on regrouping quickly, with the double pivot providing a shield for the defense and the full-backs dropping back to restore the defensive line.
Conclusion
Enzo Maresca’s 4-2-3-1 possession-based system is a sophisticated blend of structure, creativity, and tactical discipline. By emphasizing positional play, controlled build-up, and aggressive pressing, his teams maintain dominance over possession, create high-quality chances, and ensure defensive solidity.

Strikers, I’m fine with buying 1 and keeping Jackson as rotation (although Jackson is the same as Mudryk and Madueke, for every 8 times he gets the ball or a chance he does 1 thing good) he looks like he tackles himself and trips up with his own feet. Watkins or Ompenda for me to come in as the striker.

I really don't get the tag on these "gaffers coming from the championship" as a dent on their abilities.. Arsenal hired Pep's deputy in Arteta straight off and we all laughed at them but see where it landed them. Bayer Leverkusen last season sacked an experienced gaffer in the middle of the season who had them battling relegation and hired an unproven & untested gaffer in Alonso and see how far it has got them - UNBEATEN RUN and a double in Germany! So good to see him reward that faith by staying put! A good coach is a good one - regardless of where he coaches. We can judge them by their methods and results. We all laughed when the board mentioned Spurs Coach, Ange as one they were targeting for the Chelsea job last season but he fared better and landed them in an Europa spot which we would gladly have right now! So sometimes as fans, we need to chill as we really dont know it all.

With his style, we need all our attacking midfielders as well as the wingers to be clinical finisher. With that I think everyone on the pitch can score a goal not only relying on the cf. we’ll enjoy good football next season trust me ❤

I wish the club keep Conor Gallagher and Trevor Chalobah next season (2024/2025), while B. Badiashile, R. Sterling, Wesley Fofana, Ben Chilwel, Armando Broja and the likes are sold to meet PSR are met. The club can turn down or lose the play-off matches if they know that, the conference league will not help the team for the season. Viewing from Ohio, 🇺🇸

That would be horrible set up. Especially for Caicedo and the teams buildup. To be clear neither Gallagher nor Cuccurela are awesome defensive mids but they are very energetic. And between them they cover proper ground allowing Caicedo to shoot forward. This inverted LB business is silly at best. Proper teams adapt to it overloading the left side pinning Cuccurela and isolating Caicedo. With Gallagher there at least there was some help and an outlet. Caicedo works best in a 3-5-3, 4-4-2 or ideally a 4-3-3

Caicedo, Enzo, Gallagher, Ugochuko and Lavia… IS THAT HEALTHY? NO!! We got 3 players that are excellent that can play in the 10 role: Palmer, Nkunku, Carney Wingers we have a problem, NONE OF THEM are good enough for me (Madueke, Sterling, Mudryk are NOT GOOD ENOUGH) Madueke and Mudryk do 1 good thing every 8 times they recieve the ball and Sterling (I don’t even need to give an explication about what WE ALL think about him (what’s concerning is Maresca might fancy Sterling… then we got a problem! Strikers, I’m fine with buying 1 and keeping Jackson as rotation (although Jackson is the same as Mudryk and Madueke, for every 8 times he gets the ball or a chance he does 1 thing good) he looks like he tackles himself and trips up with his own feet. Watkins or Ompenda for me to come in as the striker.

Bring in the new blood. so bored of over paid old managers that know a lot but can't be assed to push themselves. Only Pep and Arteta push themselves and they are paid accordingly. So many new managers up and coming need to be given a chance. Roll on Enzo

Europa Conference League is going to mess up the game schedule leading to not finishing in a Champs League place next season. Manager merry go round will continue.
