🗣️ Enzo Maresca ahead of Nottingham Forest [A] in the Premier League:

🏥 𝐎𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐞𝐫:

“Unfortunately, he [Cole Palmer] needs to be out for probably six more weeks, this is the update.

“We try to protect Cole [Palmer] as much as we can and the most important thing is that when he comes back, he is fully fit. We hope the six weeks will be enough, but it’s a problem that we need to look at step by step, week by week, but for sure he is going to be okay.”

🤕 𝐎𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐚𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐝𝐨, 𝐄𝐧𝐳𝐨 𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐳 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐞𝐝𝐫𝐨 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐨:

“They didn’t take part in the session yesterday but we will see if they can train today. Otherwise, they would be out for tomorrow.”

🏥 𝐎𝐧 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐢𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞:

“Benoit will be out until December.

“He is injured again with a muscle problem. He was doing fantastic, showing how good he is and we will wait for him.”

😊 In regard to positive news, Tosin [Adarabioyo], [Wesley] Fofana and Andrey Santos are all available for selection after recovering from injury.

Reece James is also fit – the Blues skipper did not join up with England due to an issue sustained in the victory over Liverpool.

👀 𝐎𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐟 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝟕𝟎𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞:

“When we analyse a team, we try to consider everything, but also you have to go by match and understand why they concede a goal, in which moment, it’s always different.

“For sure, with the international break, we watch all the games with Ange [Postecoglu] in charge, and in terms of making changes, I think it’s something that sometimes you plan, but also depends on how is the game, you can do more changes or less, I think especially now with the amount of games that we have from now on, we need to think about change, not only during the game, but also in terms of starting level.”

A word for this Garnacho first half performance? 👀

Only João Pedro (15) had fewer touches for Chelsea in the first half than Alejandro Garnacho (18).

Ineffective. ❌
