Enzo Maresca has done more for Chelsea's ownership group than any manager they've previously hired. He's delivered them from the one criticism that would have defined their tenure, that this model doesn't win trophies. In his first season, he didn't just qualify for the Champions League, he secured a fourth-place finish, the club's highest league position since the takeover nearly three years ago. Then came the Conference League triumph, followed by an against-the-odds victory in the Club World Cup.
