Maresca: Enzo/Neto/Buddy are all back; Chelsea can win and everyone can lose

Hupu reported on November 21 that Chelsea head coach Maresca attended the pre-match press conference against Burnley in the Premier League.

[Rumor board] Maresca: Palmer sprained his toe at home and will be out for the next two weeks

Talking about Gusteau's problem, especially Gusteau's positioning (the problem is too long), and his recent state.

We have said many times that Marlowe is a key player in our tactical system. He can play multiple positions. We like players who allow us to be flexible. Personally, I think Marleau is the core player for our team.

In the game against Wolves, he made 18 threatening passes, the most in the Premier League this season. With the midfield staff relatively well-organized, what kind of tactical strategy will you adopt in the game against Burnley, especially the deployment of the midfield?

This will be a different game. Tomorrow we need to use different strategies and tactics. It's going to be a tough game after the international break, (England) away game at 12:30 noon, which is always a tough game.

Speaking of Palmer, although his toe is injured, what about the previous groin problem? Is he healed and just unlucky?

He was very close to making a comeback before. He's almost back to full health, which is great news, but he still has a little niggle.

Tuchel said that England is full of talents at No. 10. Do you think Palmer can catch up with the last team in the World Cup squad?

Personally, Cole is one of our best players. There is no doubt that he is capable of playing for any national team, but it is ultimately Thomas's decision.

Considering Lavia’s injury, Caicedo played another 180 minutes during the international match. What will you do? And what about Badiashile, Neto, Enzo and others?

Moi (Caicedo) only arrived in London last night and I will go to assess his situation with the coaching staff soon.

He is in good condition. Benoit (Badia Shearer) can play tomorrow. Enzo (Fernandez) and Pedro (Neto) used the offseason to recuperate from injuries. They can all play tomorrow.

The pictures we saw on Palmer’s social media are quite normal. Has he come to Cobham?

The last time I saw him was yesterday morning. He was wearing no socks, no slippers, nothing. I wonder how he is doing today.

Where is he without any clothes?

It was in the locker room. He's not limping and looks fine, but it's his little toe (which is broken) so it might be painful.

Do you think Chelsea found a way to cope with Palmer's injury? Do you think Chelsea can do without Palmer...?

Absolutely not (laughs), I don’t think so. The team prefers Cole on the court rather than injured, and I feel more comfortable when Cole is on the court, but when he is not, we need to find a solution.

The team is performing very well now, really well. It's certainly a good thing for any coach when his team is missing a player but can still play the way he wants.

How do you think Chelsea can get good results when they play Barcelona and Arsenal?

I...I, I, I think we just need to continue to play what we want to play, but no matter what, the team is on the right path. Chelsea has proven that we can beat any team or lose to any team (laughs, end of live broadcast).
