Enzo Maresca Channels Antonio Conte’s Pragmatic Style at Chelsea but Faces Defensive Challenges

Enzo Maresca’s tactical approach at Chelsea is drawing comparisons to Antonio Conte’s style, particularly in the way he adapts his strategies based on opponents.

While initially dubbed a “mini-Pep” due to his connection with Pep Guardiola, Maresca has shown a more pragmatic approach, reminiscent of Conte’s counter-attacking philosophy.

He has shifted towards transitional play, exploiting the speed and creativity of Chelsea’s attackers like Enzo Fernández and Cole Palmer.

Despite Chelsea’s strong start, there are still key areas requiring improvement, notably in defense. Maresca acknowledges this and continues to fine-tune the team’s performances, especially against high-pressing teams.

However, Chelsea’s ability to dominate possession, a hallmark of his preferred style, remains a challenge​.
