Chelsea Manager Maresca Declares Liverpool 'Impossible to Stop' in Premier League Title Defense

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has expressed his concern that Liverpool's dominant start to the Premier League season makes it "impossible" for any team, including Chelsea, to catch them. Liverpool currently leads the league by five points, having won all their matches so far and spending over £400 million on key signings like Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak to strengthen their squad. Maresca praised Liverpool's transfer strategy and continuous high performance since last season, highlighting their clear ambition to compete for both the Premier League and Champions League titles. Chelsea, in contrast, have struggled recently, remaining winless in three matches and facing injury challenges with players like Cole Palmer. Despite this, Maresca remains hopeful about managing Palmer's groin injury without surgery but acknowledges the need to protect key players due to a congested fixture schedule. The current Premier League landscape underscores Liverpool's tactical and player strengths, making them a formidable force that other clubs find extremely difficult to overcome this season.
