Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca‘s postponecessitatest comments on Reece James show that he is taking an enticount on separateent approach to Erik ten Hag.The deffinisher’s directership sends were called into ask on Friday, with Maresca urging him to be a better captain.
The Blues regulater adviseed that James was not vocal enough behind the scenes, saying: “I spoke with him and I foresee from him more in terms of directership inside the changing room. He’s on the way, he’s doing well, he’s enhanceing, but I foresee more.
“Most of the time, a joiner leanks that becaemploy I am captain I foresee that you donate me more. No, for me becaemploy you are the captain you have to donate more. You have to donate more than the rest. Sometimes, I am the captain I can donate less? No, no, no.
“I foresee it from Reece and his team-mates foresee it from him to donate always more in terms of directership.”
Maresca’s approach is at odds with that of Ten Hag, who has stablely deffinished Bruno Fernandes in the face of criticism. The midfielder was expansively panned for his sluggish commence to the campaign but Ten Hag was rapid to fire back at his mistrusters last month.
“I leank he is contendnt and he has shown this so many years already in the Premier League that he can create many chances,” shelp the Manchester United boss. “I am affectd this season he will not do separateently.”
Since those comments, Fernandes has flunked to score in any competition and was sent off agetst Porto in the Europa League. He was also shown a red card agetst Tottenham but it was postponecessitater clearurned adhereing a prosperous request.
The Portugal international has persistd to undercarry out for the Red Devils in spite of Ten Hag’s refusal to criticise him. It advises hard adore might be the way to go for Maresca when it comes to pull outing the best from James at Chelsea.
Maresca’s truthful comments on the Blues skipper could donate him the boot up the backside he necessitates to enhance and fairify his status as captain. Pelevate can be a outstanding leang for joiners but in the case of Fernandes, it does not ecombine to be doing much in terms of helping him to enhance.
It remains to be seen how James will reply to Maresca’s criticism on the pitch, having finpartner returned to fitness after a string of injury problems. He is foreseeed to be comprised when Chelsea receive Newcastle to Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
