ENZO MARESCA URGES CHELSEA TO GROW STRONGER FROM COSTLY RED-CARD INCIDENTS
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca reveals his unique "fatherly" management style, focusing on guidance over punishment amid a red card crisis. The Blues have seen five dismissals in six games, including Maresca himself.

"My four children... I try to teach kids to do the right things instead of punishing them when they do something wrong. At a press conference, Maresca stated, "I try to handle the players the same way, to try to help them comprehend."
"This is how I perceive things. I am not sure if it is right or wrong. However, it is how I prefer to do things.
The Blues have received red cards in five of their last six games and in all four of their previous games. At the conclusion of the 2-1 victory over Liverpool earlier this month, Maresca was also sent off.
Both games ended in defeat as a result of the dismissals of goalkeepers Trevor Chalobah against Brighton and Robert Sanchez against Manchester United.
Maresca stated, "I do not think it is the appropriate way to approach things, and I am not that kind of manager to punish players." "I would rather assist them in comprehending and acting appropriately."
Malo Gusto will miss Sunderland's visit to Stamford Bridge this weekend, even though his late departure on Saturday came as Chelsea was already leading 3-0 at Nottingham Forest.
Joao Pedro was sent off for two yellow cards in the penultimate minute of the London club's victory against Benfica in their most recent European match; thus, he will miss Wednesday's Champions League match against Ajax at home.
Maresca was fined £8,000 ($10,705) and banned for one match for his wild celebrations following Estevao Willian's stoppage-time victory against Liverpool.
He claimed that his team was punishing bad behaviour on their own.
According to Maresca, "the players have a structure inside the changing room in terms of fines. They can handle it."
Maresca stated that Liam Delap, who has been out since August due to a hamstring injury, was almost ready to resume training and that the injury that prevented Enzo Fernandez from playing versus Forest was not significant.
According to Maresca, "Liam is extremely close." "Although he is not currently working with us, we expect that he will be able to begin participating in our sessions in the coming days.
"On Monday, Enzo participated. We will see what we decide for Wednesday, our next session. It is merely an attempt to keep him safe, so we should not be concerned."
GOAL OF MONTH SHORTLIST INCLUDES WOLTEMADE’S BRILLIANT STRIKE

Earlier this month, the Magpies fell 2-1 against Brighton, but the German international's incredible flick tied the score.
However, the summer acquisition, who has scored six goals for United since joining from Stuttgart in the summer, grabbed attention at the Amex Stadium with a superb improvised finish from Lewis Miley's low cross.
Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert of Bournemouth, Zian Flemming and Loum Tchaouna of Burnley, Chelsea's Moises Caicedo, Aston Villa's Emi Buendia, and Mo Salah of Liverpool are also on the shortlist.
Supporters of the Magpies may cast their votes for Woltemade by visiting here, and voting will begin at 1 pm GMT on Thursday, October 30. The winner will be revealed on Friday, November 7th at 1 pm GMT.
HUGE LISANDRO MARTINEZ UPDATE EMERGES AS UNITED PREPARE FOR FOREST ENCOUNTER
Manchester United receive a major boost as Lisandro Martinez returns to first-team training. The Argentine defender has been out since February with a knee injury and is now closing in on a first-team return.

Lisandro Martinez returns to first-team training, giving Manchester United a significant conditioning boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
Lisandro Martinez has returned to first-team training for Manchester United, giving them a significant fitness boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
Due to a serious knee injury sustained during a Premier League match against Crystal Palace, the Argentina international has not played for the 20-time English champions since early February.
However, Martinez has been speeding up his recuperation in recent weeks, and on Wednesday, the former Ajax centre-back was allowed to rejoin his teammates for training.
It is extremely doubtful that Martinez will play for Man United when they travel to Forest on Saturday, but the 27-year-old might return to the team for the match against Tottenham Hotspur on November 9.
Lisandro Martinez of Manchester United resumes training with the first team.
According to Man United head coach Ruben Amorim, "He’s feeling fine," last week. "I do not want to mention a single day or week because the knee is doing so wonderfully.
"I am not sure, but the team's training is about to begin. After that, Licha's rhythm will determine whether he places or not, but he is closer to starting training again.
The Red Devils will not be taking any chances with the Argentine because of the severity of the injury, and his return may be postponed until after the international break in November.
Luke Shaw's place in the starting lineup is now seriously threatened; therefore, Martinez's return is a significant boost for the 20-time English champions. Martinez is an expert in the left-sided role in the back three.
After joining Old Trafford from Ajax in the summer of 2022, the South American has made 91 appearances for the Red Devils, tallying three goals and three assists.
