Elon Musk’s AI predicts Enzo Maresca’s first season answerable for Chelsea
Chelsea are entering a new managerial era, again, under Enzo Maresca.
Maresca, 44, has joined the Blues on a five-year deal after he guided Leicester City back to the big time last season. And he’s now been handed the keys to the Premier League giants after they parted ways with Mauricio Pochettino.
And Daily Star Sport have asked wannabe spaceman Elon Musk’s Grok – an AI program – how Maresca will do in his first season in charge. It first delved into potential signings, noting Maresca should chase a goalkeeper, full-back and a forward.

It said: “The club is reportedly targeting a £20million deal for a goalkeeper. At left-back, Chelsea is considering a move for Brest’s Bradley Locko, who is rated at £35m.
“Additionally, the club is looking to strengthen the forward position, with discussions focusing on these three key areas.” Grok also said Conor Gallagher, Romelu Lukaku and Kepa Arrizabalaga could all be shown the door.

Grok then added: “If I had to make a prediction based on the information provided, I would say that Chelsea has the potential to finish in the top four of the Premier League under the management of Enzo Maresca.
“This is based on the belief in his ability to improve the team’s performance, the potential for significant signings in key positions, and the general expectation of a strong performance in European competitions.
“However, this is a speculative prediction and the actual outcome could vary depending on various factors.”

Chelsea finished outside of the Champions League spots again under Poch, and Blues fans will certainly be hoping Grok’s predictions come true.
Speaking on Monday after his move to west London was made official, Maresca said: “To join Chelsea, one of the biggest clubs in the world, is a dream for any coach. It is why I am so excited by this opportunity.
“I look forward to working with a very talented group of players and staff to develop a team that continues the club’s tradition of success and makes our fans proud.”
