Chelsea director Jonathan Goldstein has publicly backed Enzo Maresca and said he will “100 per cent” see out the season, amid growing scrutiny on the Blues head coach.
Speaking after the Brighton game, Maresca said: “Probably since I arrived that is the worst performance, especially in the moment we are in,” said Maresca.
“The performance is not one you want to offer, so we are very upset, and especially very sorry for the fans who were here, and in general to our fans, because in this moment you cannot offer this kind of performance with 14 games to go, now 13 games to go.
Chelsea lost 3-0 to Brighton last Friday in what Maresca described as their worst performance since he was appointed last summer.
Asked if Maresca would see out the season, Goldstein said: “100 per cent”.
