🗣️ Enzo Maresca on Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Los Angeles FC in the first match of the Club World Cup:

💪 “We are professional and have to adapt to any situation or environment.

“‘What’s important is the behaviour of the players, the attitude, and once again today, they showed how professional they are and the desire they have, because it was important to win today and also not to concede a goal.

“We finished the Premier League season and Conference League very strong defensively, without conceding many goals. Today we continued that and we want to stay with this attitude.”

👏 𝐎𝐧 𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐬 𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐢𝐚𝐦 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐩, 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬:

“Both are very good No.9s and hopefully both can score goals and get assists like today, because I prefer to have four or five players who score ten or twelve goals each rather one striker who scores 40 goals. Enzo [Fernandez] scored again today too, which is good.

“Last year we tried to use different threats, different weapons; we also we had two or three months where we were without Nico and Marc [Guiu]. We tried to find different solutions but for sure, when you have two strikers like Nico and Liam, it’s a nice feeling as a head coach.

“You know you can choose one of them and it’s going to be a good choice.”

🥇 𝐎𝐧 𝐏𝐞𝐝𝐫𝐨 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐨, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐎𝐓𝐌 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠:

“Pedro is a very good person, very professional, and works hard every day. Today he played a very good game and since he arrived with us, he has been very good.

“Next season, he is probably going to be even better in terms of goals and assists, but overall, we are very happy with Pedro.”

There is a gentleman’s agreement between Chelsea and Djordje Petrovic that he can leave if someone bids £25 million (€30m).

The 25-year-old has been given the green light to find himself a club over the next month that will be prepared to pay that.
