Chelsea, Maresca: “Tough start, but good game. Palmer? He must be ambitious”

The Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca he spoke like this, as reported by BBC.comafter the 4-2 win over Brighton: “It was a good match. We probably struggled in some moments of the match, but I think the team also needed to learn how to play this type of match.”

“I prefer to have more ball possession – points out Maresca -. But we struggled a bit at the start of the match, we conceded possession because they surprised us a bit tactically, but overall we were quite good”.

On Cole Palmer: “I’ve known Palmer for many years, I had him at Manchester City in the Under-23s. The best thing is that his way of being human is the same. This doesn’t change his life and that’s the thing better for him. You’d be blind if you didn’t see this kind of thing with Cole. I said he scored four goals but he could have scored more, I always say be ambitious and hungry to score more.”
