1st team debut for Ato Ampah giving Pedro Neto a deserved rest. I really like Ampah, he is so direct.

Samuel Rak-Sakyi appreciation post: Absolutely bossed it today in the midfield and was so composed on the ball.
Completed 88/89 of his passes, a 99% accuracy. He also won 5 duels, 2 fouls, 2 tackles, made 1 key pass and had 100 touches.
Deserves another start against Shamrock next week. #CFC #UECL
Well played! ๐

Enzo Maresca on Chelseaโs 3-1 win over Astana [A] in the UEFA Conference League group stage:
๐ค โIt was a solid performance.
โWe knew it was quite cold. We tried to adapt quickly. The players did fantastically with the weather conditions, the long journey yesterday, and the pitch was not ideal for us. Overall Iโm very happy for the players.
โIโm also happy for the young players who helped us win the game. I was impressed by all of them. The ones who started, Tyrique [George], Sam [Rak-Sakyi] and Josh [Acheampong] all did very good. So Iโm very happy for them, and also the ones that came on in the second half, Iโm pleased for them.โ

โNow, as I said, we need their support on Sunday because we need them.โ

Arne Slot when asked if Chelsea are considered title challengers:
โIt was one of the games [when Liverpool beat them 2-1 in October], maybe the only game, where I felt the other team was better than us during that game. Thatโs not to say for the long term they are better than us but during the game they had more ball possession than us and were threatening us more than any other team until now. Iโm not there to judge which position they will end in the league table. I have to focus on my own team but Chelsea have been impressive this season so far, thatโs for sure.โ
