Maresca satisfied with Chelsea's transfer moves, squad adjustments

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has been advised to drop Enzo Fernandez from the starting lineup to improve midfield balance, particularly in light of Romeo Lavia's injury woes. Following a 2-1 victory against West Ham, Chelsea remains inconsistent, having only secured two wins in their last eight league matches. Former player Paul Parker suggested that Lavia's return should see him replace Fernandez, who has struggled with his temperament on the field. Meanwhile, Chelsea's transfer window saw the departure of Cesare Casadei to Torino, despite Maresca's desire to retain him, highlighting the club's ongoing midfield depth issues. Maresca expressed satisfaction with the transfer activity, noting that the departures were pre-planned, and emphasized confidence in the remaining squad. Chelsea's recent win has temporarily boosted their position in the Premier League, but concerns about squad depth linger.
