Wesley Fofana could now miss the entire season at Chelsea once again, according to Maresca. That’s shocking news and absolute madness for the money we spent signing him.
I’m upset, I’m really upset.
However, it appears that Fofana himself does not agree with Enzo Maresca’s injury diagnosis.
team Some people are reporting that they believe Maresca has such a pessimistic attitude towards Fofana. Because Fofana wants to put pressure on the club to bring him a new center during this transfer window. The player believes he will be back ‘well before the end of the season’.
They went on to say that Chelsea’s medical staff and some internally had suggested Fofana would undergo surgery and miss at least three months. But Fofana refused and refused.
They all look a little messy, right?
But rather than putting more effort into all of that now, Chelsea should attack the centre-back market now. We can’t just replace Fofana. We need to upgrade our defense and bring in a dominant, experienced centre-back as quickly as possible.
Aaron Anselmino’s situation is really strange. We’ve heard he will be assessed by Enzo Maresca and could still go on loan. But while Maresca said he was 100% committed to staying, he also said he was not ready to play for the first team and needed to settle in England first. So we don’t consider him a cover option? Of course? I think he should go on loan. The only way to improve is to play. It seems like one of their plans would be to keep him in the U21s, but I think he needs a senior loan. In my mind I think he will actually come in and be a first team player to cover for the Fofana injury, whether he misses the whole season or not.
But there are a lot of circumstances that could affect all of this, so we’ll have to wait and see how things unfold. Axel Disasi is one of them.
Josh Acheampong finally got going on Saturday and, as expected, played very well. So now he has answers and will rely on them on a regular basis? But I still believe we need to add another dominant and experienced centre-back to help them all and further solidify our back line.
To be honest, we need to go out and sign a top centre-back now if we want to maintain this top four challenge.
