A difficult first 45. ⏰

🚨🤕 Confirmed! Cole Palmer has a strained groin and will be out for weeks, with November as the likeliest return. (Kieran Gill)

Pat Nevin: "Maresca's willingness to be more offensive right from the start suggested he had listened to recent complaints about negativity.

"Going from 4-2-3-1 to 4-1-4-1 might not sound like a huge change, but that additional forward midfielder contributed to their first goal and the extra attacking freedom raised the belief in his players."

🚨Chelsea will not be signing a goalkeeper next summer. They have three goalkeepers – Sanchez, Jorgensen and Penders – who are regarded as being good enough to be their established No. 1.

Chelsea were offered the chance to sign AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan in the summer but decided not to pay the asking price because they had faith in Sanchez, Jorgensen and Penders.

Facundo Buonanotte on Enzo Fernandez helping him and Garnacho settle at Chelea:

"Enzo was the first to write to me when my arrival at the club was confirmed. I was very grateful."

"That tells you what a good person he is. I don’t need to say anything about what he’s like on the pitch, because he’s a wonderful player and everyone can see that, but on top of that, he's a great person."

"He is always trying to help Garnacho, me, and everyone else. Enzo is a fundamental pillar here. He is our captain. I am very happy to share so many moments with him and learn from him every day."(ChelseaFC)

Enzo Maresca on instagram:

John Obi Mikel:

"There is no midfielder in the world that can give us everything Caicedo gives us right now. He's absolutely magnificent; breaking up play, setting up play, he's first to everything, aggressive, and he's a leader as well."

🚨🤕Sources with knowledge of the Reece James injury indicated the issue was minor, and the decision to withdraw was precautionary given the number of significant spells out with hamstring problems he has had over the past two seasons.

Robbie Earle on Maresca:

"I just think he's one of those managers who doesn't get credit. He's difficult to play against. Technically, he's a very smart operator.

He's building something. When Klopp went in at Liverpool, it took him 3 or 4 years to get to where he wanted to. I think if you give Enzo Maresca a similar time at , will start to compete."
