Premier League table after 13 rounds: Liverpool leads with 34 points, followed by Arsenal and Chelsea with 25 each. This has been enough to spark hope among the fans of Chelsea’s Blues that the club might be in the race for the title by the end of the season, even though Liverpool has already pulled ahead. However, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca dismisses any notion that his team is competing for the trophy.Alphabet is trivial? Look at Premier League table!”No, we are not in the title race. Absolutely not. The talk about the title is a nice kind of pressure on me and the players, and we enjoy that pressure, but we are not part of that conversation. Arsenal has been very close over the last two seasons, alongside City and Liverpool. We haven’t been close to them. But I hope we will be soon,” Maresca said.Enzo Maresca feels exactly the same as we do about Cole Palmer! 🤩 pic.twitter.com/o69nOsrJHf— The Sun Football ⚽ (@TheSunFootball) December 1, 2024 Still, he insists that Chelsea has a bright future ahead.”Considering the age and quality of our players, I believe that Chelsea will be one of the dominant teams in English football over the next five to ten years. I mentioned this in my first meeting with the club’s leadership. And this doesn’t depend on who the current or future manager is.
