Tosin Adarabioyo found plenty of space to put the ball into FC Noah’s net with his first goal as a Blues player after Chelsea captain Enzo Fernández took a fantastic corner kick.
Explaining his unexpected lineup choice two hours prior to kickoff, Enzo Maresca
With the release of Chelsea’s team news tonight, everyone’s attention is focused on one thing: Tyrique George’s debut, aside from the team’s bizarre attacking composition.
After making an appearance as a substitute in our final game of the competition, the young player has been making progress and is now ready for a senior start.
Maresca discussed the choice to start George and how he had told the 18-year-old that the time had arrived.
“I’m thrilled for him since he performed well during his little stint with us at Panathinaikos, so maybe he can assist us. I hope he can assist us and play a strong game.”I informed him just two hours prior; depending on the situation, it may be preferable to inform them closer to the game. I hope he can assist us and play a strong game.
We’ve been hearing rumors about it all day, so it’s surprising that he says he only notified George two hours ago.Maresca begs Chelsea’s youthful and aggressive squad to exercise restraint.Overall, Maresca reminded his players that there are no easy games in Europe and advised them to exercise caution:
“Everyone expects an easy game, but in football, you have to do the right things to win, so it’s a tricky game.” There is motivation because it’s a European competition. The game serves as their drive, but we must deal with that.
Although it’s difficult to take him seriously when he’s selected a team with a striker, two wingers, two number tens, and an offensive eight, it’s a really sensible assertion.
We’re not playing a good team, though, and this should be the ideal time for a debut despite Maresca’s warning.
