Enzo Maresca is under pressure at Chelsea and there are a number of reasons why he should be sacked by Clearlake Capital.

Maresca told Chelsea supporters the club is heading in the right direction compared to the previous two seasons.

But the identity that Maresca’s trying to instill — seemingly at the behest of his superiors — is an identity that is very hard to readily engage with as a fan. And when results are not there in the end to justify the means, there’s little reason to expect that engagement to increase (at least not in a positive way).
