Chelsea came back from a two-goal deficit to hold relegation-bound Ipswich Town to a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge last weekend. The Blues, along with manager Maresca, were booed off at half-time when they were trailing by two goals. With four points dropped in their last two Premier League matches, the West London have complicated their path back to the Champions League after two seasons, as they fell to the sixth position, one point behind fifth-placed Manchester City.

There have been speculation over Maresca's future at the English club since the club's form took a massive dip in December; however, the Chelsea management are reportedly satisfied with the Italian's commitment and are unlikely to sack him, even if they fail to secure a Champions League slot.
WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
A source inside Chelsea has told : "Everyone at the club is totally on board and committed to getting us back in the Champions League. Enzo, the board and the sporting directors are wedded to that ideal. If it doesn’t happen this season there will be questions asked naturally. But as it stands Enzo is still seen as the man to take Chelsea forwards."
