Chelsea are focused on taking things one step at a time, head coach Enzo Maresca said on Friday as the Italian looks to restore the West London club to the Premier League's top four.Having finished sixth last campaign and 12th in the 2022-23 season, Chelsea hired the 44-year-old Maresca in June after he guided Leicester City to the English Championship title in his first season in charge.Chelsea are eighth in the Premier League standings with seven points from four matches.
Their only league loss this season came against defending champions Manchester City."This is a good squad," Maresca told reporters when asked if his side could finish in the Premier League's top four."But in the last two years, we have finished 12th and sixth.
You need progress. The only way to reach some important targets is to be focused on game after game."I try to live every week and every day in the same way.
Focus on things I can control. My focus is on training sessions and games."Chelsea continue to be without captain Reece James, who is out with a hamstring injury."We're waiting that he's fit.
