Welcome Maresca, nothing left but to support and get behind him and the team, toxic atmosphere at games and abuse to players or staff online won't help anyone, we have opinions but what can we do but support.

Obviously hope he does well has a good group of players to work with would like someone with a Chelsea background on his coaching staff.

He has an excellent group of players who have had a season under Poch to gel and show by end of it that they should be Top 4 next season.
I had wanted Poch to have the chance to secure this for us bit now can only hope and pray that Maresca can. He seems hugely inexperienced as a head coach but will presumably have more experienced heads around him to assist or I certainly hope so. He did have one season as assistant to Pep and does have a slight look of the maestro - Arteta surely had rather longer - perhaps the squad should be told he is Pep!?
Big gamble and I remain stunned by appointment but have to presume he must be a likeable genius. He has to swiftly gain the respect of the players. Probably has to get off to a flyer to cement that. Hope he can.
