Enzo Maresca is certainly getting a tune out of so many Chelsea players in the first half of the season.
There were a few eyebrows raised when Enzo Maresca took charge as the Chelsea manager in the summer. However, if you fast-forward to now, he appears to have won everybody over with his impact at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues squad is thriving both in the Premier League and the Conference League, so everything appears to be moving in the right direction.
Maresca is believed to be the driving force behind Chelsea’s success. In particular, the training sessions under his watch are of the highest quality.

Darren Bent praises Jadon Sancho form at Chelsea
TalkSPORT pundit Darren Bent thinks Chelsea’s Jadon Sancho, 24, has been great under Maresca.
The left-winger joined the Blues from Manchester United in the summer. He arrived on a season-long loan deal that includes an obligation to buy for between £20-25m next year (BBC).
Sancho has broken into his side’s best line-up to start regularly in the Premier League, where he’s regularly contributing in attack.
Bent told talkSPORT: “What he’s (Maresca) doing with Jadon Sancho as well, by the way. He stays [next season]. They’ll sign him. They have to.

“He won’t want to go back there [to Manchester United]. He’s having fun at Chelsea. He’s playing well at Chelsea.”
Jason Cundy thinks there’s more to come from Chelsea’s Sancho, which is an exciting thought for supporters. In fairness, the competition for places means he can’t take his foot off the gas.
Jadon Sancho is becoming key for Chelsea
As it stands, Sancho’s £25m transfer for Chelsea next summer looks like a huge bargain.
Of course, the Englishman has had his struggles as a Man United player. However, he’s now starting to show for Chelsea the kind of form that made him a young sensation in Germany with Borussia Dortmund.
Danny Murphy claims Chelsea’s Sancho has been “a joy” after watching him impress this season. The 24-year-old has made the left-winger spot his own and looks a major threat.
In 11 Chelsea appearances this season, Sancho has chipped in with two goals and five assists. He was robbed of an assist in Sunday’s league win against Brentford after Nicolas Jackson missed a sitter, too.
