Palmer credits Maresca's high-energy sessions and tactical insights for Chelsea's recent surge in form.
Cole Palmer has opened up about the secret behind Chelsea’s recent success, pointing to the impact of head coach Enzo Maresca’s intense training sessions. After Chelsea’s dominant 3-0 win over Aston Villa, Palmer shared how Maresca’s approach has elevated the team to new heights.
Palmer, who scored a brilliant goal in the match, praised Maresca’s tactics and the energy he brings to every training session. “It’s all down to the manager, the desire that he puts into the sessions and what the players give to him,” Palmer explained.
The midfielder highlighted how Maresca’s sessions focus not only on fitness but also on sharp tactical drills and fostering a winning mentality. “He pushes us to enjoy our football, and that makes a huge difference. When you’re having fun and learning at the same time, the goals and assists just flow naturally,” Palmer added.
Under Maresca, Chelsea’s playing style has become more aggressive and fluid. The team presses high up the pitch, moves the ball quickly, and capitalizes on scoring opportunities. Palmer believes this transformation has been key to their improved performances.
“Aston Villa are a tough side, but we executed our game plan perfectly,” he said. “We’re not just playing to win; we’re playing to dominate. That confidence comes from the hard work we put in during training.”
With upcoming fixtures against Southampton, Spurs, and several mid-table teams, Palmer feels optimistic about Chelsea’s chances of climbing higher in the league. “If we keep winning, I’m sure we’ll be near the top four. We’re just trying to keep going and win plenty of games,” he stated.
The midfielder is also excited about the team’s potential to compete for more than just a top-four finish. “We’re aiming high. If we stay consistent and stick to what Maresca has taught us, there’s no limit to what we can achieve,” Palmer said confidently.
Cole Palmer’s insights into Maresca’s training methods reveal a clear connection between the team’s preparation and their success on the pitch. With the squad fully bought into Maresca’s philosophy, Chelsea fans have plenty of reasons to be excited about the rest of the season.
