With Cole, we are a better team, Maresca said. I really praise the players and the squad because we've played 16 Premier League games, five of them without Moises Caicedo, 11 of them without Palmer, almost all of them without Liam Delap.

I said many times that with Cole we are a better team, Maresca said. I really praise the players and the squad because we played 16 Premier League games, five of them without Moises Caicedo, 11 of them without Cole Palmer, almost all of them without Liam Delap. Today was five games...
|
With Cole, it's just a matter of the more players you have that are good, the team is better, said Maresca.
|
|
This kind of thing is because you do the right things in terms of performance and results. For us November was fantastic, Maresca said. December, we didn't start in the way we would like, even if it's just one week ago. So it's just three games in a row in one week that we didn't get resu...

Now many teams [in Italy] try to do something similar to what Atalanta has done in the last years with Gasperini, Maresca said. So you can see most of the teams played five at the back, most of the teams tried to play man-to-man everywhere.
|
|
My feeling was not that Leeds targeted him, said Maresca. My feeling after the game was they targeted all of our players.
|
|
We always talk about experience when we drop points, Maresca said. When we beat Barcelona, we drew against Arsenal, no one was mentioning about experienced players.
|
|
A very poor night, they [Leeds] deserved to win the game, they were better in all aspects, Maresca said. We will try to analyse and learn from this game and focus o the next one.
|
|
You can see they don't concede goals, Maresca said. They are defensively the best team and top of the league and Champions league, so they are the team to beat.
|
|
If we win, if we don't win, I think it's too early, Maresca said on Friday. We are still in November.
|
|
He is available to start and to play, Maresca said. Everyone is happy.
|
|
The goal from Estevao reminded me of the goal he scored against us in the Club World Cup, that is very similar, same action, Maresca said.
|
|
Estevao needs to relax, he needs to enjoy, he needs to session, he needs to play football, Maresca said. Him, Lamine (Yamal), they are so young, 18, that if you start to talk about Messi, (Cristiano) Ronaldo, I think it's too much pressure for young boys like them.
|
They're playing in an amazing way; you always learn from Barca, said Maresca. The way they attack, the way they defend, they won the league last season.
|
We are confident, we are doing well, said Maresca. Today we could have done many, many things better for sure, but it was important to win the game.
|
|
It was very important to keep the momentum from before the international break, said Maresca.
|
|
He is probably not available for Saturday for sure, Barcelona for sure or Arsenal for sure, said Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca. Unfortunately, he had an accident at home where he hit his toe. It is nothing important, but he won't be back in the next week.
