Enzo Maresca Is Immediately Dizzy After Chelsea Returns From International Pause

JAKARTA - The commotion between players in the seventh week of the 2024/2025 Premier League between Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest at Stamford Bridge, Sunday, October 6, 2024, is very detrimental to the Blues.

Enzo Maresca is confirmed to have lost two of her stars who received witnesses against playing in the next party.

The problem is, Chelsea will have to visit Anfield to face leaders, Liverpool, in the eighth week of the league, October 20, 2024.

Indeed, currently all clubs in the world are on international breaks. All players return to their respective countries to play on FIFA Matchday.

However, Maresca could not sleep well thinking about her team after the international break.

The two names in question are Marc Cucurella and Wesley Fofana. They will be dropped from the trip to Liverpool.

Both of them got yellow cards against Nottingham Forest. In total, both of them have packed five yellow cards. In fact, the new season is rolling.

They became the first two players to receive that many yellow cards.

Enzo Maresca is clearly in trouble when they travel to Anfield later. In fact, they are hunting for the fifth away.

If they manage to get the perfect points, Maresca will be the fifth coach of the Premier League to win the first five away games.

This match will be very difficult for the visitors, with Liverpool at the top of the Premier League with six wins from seven matches.

However, Chelsea's struggle will be even more difficult after they lose two players in the important game.

There are still 13 days left before arriving at Anfield. Maresca tried not to panic.

"We have an international break. It's time to see how we can manage (the team)," said the Italian coach as quoted by The Sun.

Violations And Commotions

There were six yellow cards issued by the referee to Chelsea in the match against Nottingham Forest.

The sacrifice was deemed unfit considering the Blues only earned one point at home with a final score of 1-1.

Fofana first got a yellow card because of his careless tackle.

At the end of the match, to be precise in the 88th minute, a fight between players occurred. This made Cucurella receive a yellow card.

Not only that, Nicholas Jackson was also caught slapping one of the Nottingham Forest players. He was indeed protected from referees, but sanctions from the FA (British Football Federation) awaits.

The FA also has the possibility of imposing sanctions on Chelsea and Nottingham for not being able to detain their players.

Meanwhile, the incident forced Maresca to change the line-up of her players. In fact, he just found a consistent line-up of core players.

Candidates to replace Fofana have been prepared, including Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile.

Maresca also still has the Tosin Adarbioyo who has a better performance with Levi Colwill.

Regarding Cucurella's left-back, Maresca could have chosen Ben Chilwell.

Despite the position left by the starting player, there is a big chance that new player Renato Veiga will have the opportunity to play after debuting at Chelsea by scoring in a 4-2 win over Gent in the UEFA Conference League.

Maresca had previously warned his troops that anything could change very quickly in the Premier League.

After a disappointing draw against Nottingham Forest, plus the international break to come, Maresca had the right reasons for some more changes.

Romeo Lavia is back fit after being sidelined due to injury and can replace Enzo Fernandez who looks disappointing.

While Pedro Neto hopes to take advantage of the disappointing moments of Noni Madueke on the front lines of Chelsea.

Christopher Nkunku may finally get the opportunity to play to replace inconsistent Nicolas Jackson.
