Enzo Maresca on Palmer:
โCole is a player I have known for a long time. I know him from five or six years ago [at Manchester City] and Iโve said many times heโs a top player and a top guy because he enjoys football and is so happy.
When we donโt win or he doesnโt score he looks frustrated, but itโs normal. We are completely happy with him. He is happy and he knows what is happening in this moment is completely normal.โ
(ChelseaFC)

๐จSome interesting quotes from Todd Boehly tonight๐
Boehly: โDecember was peak but eight weeks out things are a little different. If you look at the foundations being built, new management team, new academy leadership, sporting director leadership and player mindset. All thatโs there and now it is about cultivating the development of the team...โ
Boehly:
โThe one thing Iโve learned about the British press is they exaggerate a lot and leave stuff out. Iโm not going to comment. We have agreed on a strategy and a way forward and stuff is getting done...โ
Boehly on criticism of Chelsea from fans:
โItโs par for the course. The reality is the sooner you learn youโre not going to keep all the people happy all the time, freedom shows up from that.โ
Boehly:
โThe trend is in the right direction and thatโs the thing that really matters...โ
Todd Boehly on Chelseaโs recruitment strategy. โWe look at how do we put together a team that stays together. if you look at the great dynasties in sport over the years, they all had superstar captains for many years, and part of what we look at is how we find that superstar captain or player that can stay with the team for their career.โ
Boehly:
"A seven-year contract is really five. It helped with amortisation. But when you look at dynasties, they have super-star captains, and what youโre trying to find is that super-star captain."
Boehly:
"You have to accept it is a unique model but it is the way this market operates. I donโt see it as good or bad. You always focus on how you keep something together for a very long time..."
Todd Boehly asked if the Chelsea ownership will be the same by this time next year. "I can't predict the future..."
