Enzo Maresca pre-match press conference | Chelsea v Crystal Palace

Team News we are good to go any great Enzo how are you all good good yes good good good firstly team news what's the latest team news how are the injured players doing ER we don't have any update at the moment in terms of the situ the situation is still the same that means rys is still injury and Romeo it's been almost three months for you here now at Chelsea has it gone to plan 3 months would you say no I'm very very happy yeah I think at the moment is less than two month still uh very happy uh we are in my expectation we are ahead uh so I'm very happy about this uh and the good thing is yeah as we said we just start so we we we have many things that we need to improve but we are in the right direction how pleased were you with what you saw a away at woles the performance Performance against Wolves from your players I was very happy also anyway I was not happy because we lost against City but I think the performance against city was good everyone now talk about yeah WV because we we won but uh as I said we are in the right direction that uh for me in this moment is the most important thing would you say the Chelsea fans got a clear indication of Playing Style how you want to play this season the style of football the style is clear this is the way we we we like to play uh logically sometimes there is also another team that they are there trying to do the the best for them so sometimes it's not easy but uh overall I think since day one the identity of the team is quite clear and hopefully as I said day by day we can improve and we can win more games a hat trick of assists for Cole Palmer Cole Palmer there were a lot of people saying it was going to be hard for him to replicate his numbers from last season but how impressed are you with what you've seen so far very impressed with cool even if I know him very well from already many years uh as you said it's never easy to repeat again you know the same numbers then last year in terms of goal and assist but I think the most important thing for Cole is to enjoy football to relax don't feel pressure in his shoulder he has to enjoy every day training a game and then uh goals and assist they're going to come for sure Chelsea Leadership Group Thiago Silva Connor Gallagher both left they were big leaders in the dressing room who do you turn to who do you look to as your leadership group in that dressing room in this moment we have different players that they are uh behave like Capitan but I said since day one I like all of them take responsibility and feel like a capan at the end I know that only one is going to be the captain inside the pish but the important thing is that all of them they feel part of that and they feel responsibility and in this moment we have reys we have eno we have I said Levi could be one of the cap we have four or five players that they can be looking at your squad now how Squad pleased are you with what you've got and what would you like I really like the squad I said that since day one since my first day year I I said that I feel very lucky because we have many players that they can play in different position they are versatile that is something that uh I love and I feel lucky I feel happy because they are first of all good boy good person good human being and then they are very good players so this is important you've made Players that are left out the squad it clear which players you want to work with obviously there are some training away from the group if they aren't to get that move away what will happen then will you bring them back in do you have a plan for that well at the moment we have still four five days three four days I don't know how many days for the window transfer we see what's happen so in this moment I think uh we we cannot give any information or any update because we don't know how we uh how we finish when close but uh we're going to see will there be a sense of relief for Transfer Window you when the window does close you finally know the group of players you'll be working with uh yeah I I don't I think it's something for all the manager to be honest uh because the squad is close and you can work just with that Squad that numbers so you feel a bit a bit better but uh I said already two three times since we start I'm working with around 25 players so so you can manage quite well next Premier League game Stanford Bridge Crystal Palace how Sunday Game vs Crystal Palace important is it to carry that good momentum from from the game against wolves yeah yeah H we are yeah the conference League against cvet also we won then was Wolves Away uh hopefully we can continue with the with the palace and yeah we'll see we're going to try our best to to to to win that game too Palace have lost both their games so far but they seem to be a serious team under Oliver glasner what kind of game are you expecting absolutely I watched both game probably they didn't deserve to lose to be honest but this is football and they are very good team since last year they finished fantastic and for sure this year they're going to be again there and they're going to do some good good results have you felt a connection with the Chelsea fans at Stanford Bridge or Chelsea Fans or too early to say uh we really enjoyed the other day Wolves Away uh with the we fans it's always special because you can hear them more at home we need we played just one game against City and then servet I think the game against City and also against servet they were fantastic the fans so hopefully we can give them a a good a good day a joy and we can enjoy all together fans aren't overly patient they want to see results straight away do you feel that pressure or or do you feel like you've you've been given time no no no no I feel uh I feel pressure for myself in terms of uh we want to play good and we want to win games but sometimes it's not so you know automatic you need to you need a little bit process but uh I just focus to be honest in the day by day to try to improve players improve the team and then and then we see brilliant good luck thank you thank you Enzo thank you Outro | Please like the video and
