Chelsea Manager Maresca Criticizes Sterling and Disasi's Isolation with Personal Story

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has drawn a personal comparison to articulate the challenges faced by isolated players Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi. He referenced his father's grueling work as a fisherman, suggesting Sterling's training hours are minimal in comparison.

Maresca voiced empathy for the players, highlighting the mental strain of being distanced from the team. "It's not the best feeling for a player," he said, acknowledging the isolation of Sterling and Disasi but emphasizing such situations occur in every club.

Chelsea faces Manchester United at Old Trafford after a Champions League loss. Sterling, who has rejected transfers, and Disasi, who joined from Monaco, remain out of Maresca's current plans.
