What a load of bollocks! Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca reckons his side slowed down in the second half of their 1-0 win over Everton 'cause of the scorching temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. Gimme a break, mate!
Maresca's excuse is a load of rubbish
Apparently, the Blues were struggling to play 'cause it was too bloody hot. What a joke! I've never heard such a pathetic excuse in all my life. These overpaid muppets need to toughen up and stop whinging about the weather.
Chelsea's performance was nothing special
Sure, they won the game, but let's be honest - it wasn't exactly a vintage performance from Chelsea. They were lucky to scrape a 1-0 win over a bang average Everton side. If they wanna secure a spot in next season's Champions League, they're gonna have to do a lot better than that.
Maresca needs to stop making excuses
If Maresca thinks he can keep blaming the weather every time his team puts in a sub-par performance, he's got another thing coming. He needs to start taking responsibility for his team's shortcomings instead of coming up with lame excuses.
In conclusion, Maresca's claims about the weather affecting his team's performance are a load of old cobblers. Chelsea fans deserve better than this kind of rubbish. If the players can't handle a bit of heat, maybe they should try playing in the Conference League instead. What a bunch of soft lads!
