🗣Enzo Maresca on Cole Palmer:
"Cole took part in the session yesterday for the first time, not the entire session. We have one more session this afternoon and we are going to try with him to see if he's okay, otherwise he will be out tomorrow."
🗣More from Enzo Maresca on Cole Palmer:
"He is recovering from an injury, it's not managing him, it's recovering from an injury. When he is available, we need to manage him because of the amount of games."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Liam Delap injury:
"It's around 10 to 12 weeks."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Reece James playing twice for England:
"In the moment that any player joins an international team, he is fit to play the minutes the manager thinks he has to play. It's not in my hands. When Reece is here, we try to manage him as best as we can. Reece is showing he is quite fit to play two or three games in a week."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Levi Colwill being in CL squad:
"Depends where we arrive in the CL. Levi's injury is ACL injury, so it is not one month or two months, it is six, seven or eight months. For sure, he will be back but it is not something we are worried about."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Garnacho:
"He is working well. For sure, he needs to work because he arrived here not 100% fit. He needs to work. He is working well and we will see. Hopefully we can give him minutes."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Brentford challenge:
"I think it's always a tough game. It was last year in both games. The Premier League is the best league in the world because against any club it is always tough. Tomorrow we are expecting exactly the same."
🗣Enzo Maresca on start to the season:
"Probably in terms of players, I think there is always things we can improve. Improving players most of the time improves the team. The team, we start to add more solutions in terms of structure, in terms of being dynamic. I think we can still add solutions."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Cucurella progress:
"It's always about players, no doubt. I think we said already many times, with Cucu, with Enzo, with Moi, even Levi, when I joined the club, the situation around these players was a bit different to today. They want to improve and learn. We give them the tools but they are the ones that improve."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Fernandez evolution:
"When you arrive here from another country, you need to adapt. Also, I think Enzo is a good player. He struggled at the beginning of last season about what we wanted from him, but the moment he realised, he was a much better player. I see Enzo as an attacking midfielder. Hopefully he can continue in the same way."
🗣Enzo Maresca on transfer window:
"I think we have a good squad. My press conference one year ago, I said I was in love with the squad, so the squad was already really good. Since then we have tried to make some changes, but overall I think the squad is really good."
🗣Enzo Maresca on Striker options:
"The only No.9 is Guiu and Joao can also play there. Against Fulham, we used Tyrique as a No.9, so we can also think about him."
🗣Enzo Maresca on the 74 charges:
"I know from the club that they are satisfied about the process. Personally, I have nothing to add. I have no idea, to be honest. I want to focus on the pitch, something I can control."
