🗣️ Enzo Maresca on Chelsea’s 2-2 draw with Newcastle United [A] in the Premier League:

🤝 “I think after the first half they deserved to win the game, for sure. From my point of view, after the second half, we deserved to win the game.

“I think after the second goal we scored we had three or four clear chances to score one more. They also had one more with [Ashley] Barnes that I remember, but overall I think a draw is the correct result.

“The key to the first half for me was the first goal we conceded, because after a few minutes we conceded a goal and the game goes in the direction that they want. So that goal we conceded for me was the key.

“Then in the second half, we scored twice, we could have scored more goals, we changed some things at half-time. But at this stadium, 2-0 down at half-time, you come back, it is not easy for any team.

“For sure in the first half we have things that we can do better, but the way they showed in the second half character, togetherness, they have to feel proud.

“Being 2-0 down against Newcastle away, in this stadium, in this noise, in this environment, it is not easy, not many teams could do that, and they have done it.”

🟨 Maresca’s yellow card vs Newcastle means he will now have to serve a one-match touchline ban vs Aston Villa next Saturday.

“We didn’t know exactly how long Liam would be out for but he is back on Saturday, and we are happy to have both available.”

🤔 𝐎𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐚 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡:

“I think Cole is ready to play 90 minutes, yes.

“He played for an hour against Everton, then he did more than 70 minutes against Newcastle. So I think the progression is there, he’s feeling good and I think he could play for 90 minutes now.”

🟣 𝐎𝐧 𝐀𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐕𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚:

“It will be a very tough game for us and we will have to be at our best because Aston Villa are playing very well. They have a clear way of playing and they are very organised both on and off the ball.

“They are full of confidence in this moment, but we are at home and we will be trying to get the three points as we always do. We will work hard and continue to grow.”

❗️𝐎𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐜𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧:

“Yes, in almost 100 games. I’ve been suspended three times. One for celebration, and two times for yellow cards. So yeah, unfortunately I will be in the stands, but Willy [Caballero] is there, Danny [Walker] is there, the coaching staff is there.”
