🗣️ Joao Pedro:

“I knew Chelsea had an interest in me so I was on Holiday but training, imagine Chelsea call me to come to training camp and I wasn’t ready, would be difficult, but I had my debut, not at 100% but tomorrow let’s see what will happen if I start or not, it’s down to Enzo”

“It will be special if we manage to eliminate Chelsea, even with all the affection I have for them.”

“But when we’re facing each other, there’s not much else to do – we have to fight for our team. After the Club World Cup, I’ll go back to supporting Chelsea and PSG as always.”

​🎙Enzo Maresca's Full Pre-Fluminense Press Conference - Part 1/2:

🔹Enzo Maresca: "With Levi and Liam out, we are going to find a different solution. Joao is ready, we also have Nico."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "Joao, Liam, Nico, they know exactly about no.9s at Chelsea. I said already many times, in my idea, I prefer to have four, five players scoring 10, 12 goals each than one striker with 40 goals. We expect next season more goals from our attacking players."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "In terms of game plan, every game we try to adapt a little bit, in terms of finding solutions. Tomorrow, we are going to do the same."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "I watched the game [Real Madrid vs PSG], but I watched from TV. It was a fantastic temperature in the hotel [laughs]. We've already played with different conditions. The game is tomorrow at 3pm [local time], and we will try to adapt."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "You can say it's an advantage or disadvantage [our young experience vs Fluminense's experience]. It depends. We already had one entire season together in the Premier League. We are probably the first or second youngest squad in this competition... it's a good test."

🔹Enzo Maresca on Noni Madueke: "Personally, I think the same noise [over future] was before the Palmeiras game. We gave him 30 minutes and he was very good. I have no doubts, if we need, Noni will help us. Hopefully he can deal with that [any noise]."

​🎙Enzo Maresca's Full Pre-Fluminense Press Conference - Part 2/2:

🔹Enzo Maresca on Nicolas Jackson: "Nico is training well. Unfortunately, almost the last two games, he was sent off. Unfortunately for him and us. He's working well. For the new season and future, we decided to bring another nine. At the moment, he is okay."

🔹Enzo Maresca on Romeo Lavia's fitness: "Romeo is training already. Unfortunately, he is not training with us, so he's not ready for tomorrow."

🔹Enzo Maresca on Fluminense: "As I said, [Renato Gaúcho is ] an experienced manager. The style, I watched some games when he was at Gremio. It's clear. All the games, at this stage of the tournament, are going to be tough games."

🔹Enzo Maresca on wanting Chelsea's players to be more like Thiago Silva: "I am happy in the way our players are."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "We respect Thiago [Silva], absolutely. But we prepare the game against Fluminense. We need to be careful about many different things."

🔹Enzo Maresca: "There is room to improve always. We are in the right direction. But we can do many things better - attack better, defend better."

🔹Enzo Maresca on Moises Caicedo: "He's very important. Moi has been one of the best players of the season. He's very important for us. Fortunately, we also have Romeo. We used Andrey Santos the other day. We are quite happy. We are more happy when Moi is in the team."

🔹Enzo Maresca on Joao Pedro: "Joao can play in all the attacking positions for us. The difference with Nico [Jackson], I see Nico just as a nine."
