Enzo Maresca on Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Copenhagen [A] in the UEFA Conference League Round of 16 first-leg:
🤝 On the win:
“Very important. For sure because it’s away [from home] and for sure it’s because it’s a knockout tie so you need that - also for the performance.
“They surprised us because over the last three years with this manager, they played two games in a line of five - so we didn’t expect that. First half we controlled the game and had possession but we didn’t create chances. But overall we deserved to win the game and it was good to give all of
them minutes.
“It was a little bit of a sloppy goal [we conceded], we could’ve avoided that. But it’s football, it can happen. Now 90 minutes is finished and we are happy we won. Now we have another 90 minutes next week against them.
“But the most important thing is Sunday’s game [against Leicester]. It’s at home and will need our fans for 90 minutes behind the team, pushing the team.
“From now on every game is important and if we can win against Leicester on Sunday we can take one more step towards our target which is finishing in the Champions League positions.”
⚽️ On Reece James:
“He is in a very good mood. He played very good against Aston Villa and again tonight. We know how important he is for us; he is our captain, a fantastic player but we all know the most important thing for Reece is that we need him fit. It is our duty and our target to keep him fit until the end because for sure, he is going to help us.”
👀 On whether he see James playing in midfield long-term:
“So, you can ask Reece; when I signed with Chelsea, probably the day after, I sent him a video about seeing him as a midfielder. I see Reece as a midfielder, not now - since day one, before I met him for the first time.
“He is playing there now but the good thing is he played this year already as a full-back, as a centre-back and in the central midfielder. The main target for us is to help him be fit all season.”
🤞On Malo Gusto’s injury:
“He’s ok, he’s better. They just said to me he could possibly be available for Sunday’s game, so hopefully we will have him for Sunday.”
