London, England, UK. 15th December, 2024.

1. 00:00 SOUNDBITE (English): Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach:
"No matter how many games we are going to win, I think we are not ready to compete for the title. One of the reasons why is because I think the team that they know how to compete to win title(s), they are not going to concede a goal that we concede(d tonight). We concede(d) a goal on 90 minutes, a throw-in for us and we concede a goal. A team that they know how to win title(s), that goal they’re not to going to concede. So this is one of the reasons why I still continue to say that we are not ready for titles. Even if you…I don’t know if you don’t believe me or you think that I say that for….I told you many times that I would love the pressure to compete for (the) title. But we are not ready for many reasons, one of the reasons why is because we cannot concede the goal we concede and open the game and give them the chance to take a point here."
2. 01:06 SOUNDBITE (English): Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach:
"I asked the referee and he said the second yellow card was for bad attitude."
Reporter: Do you agree with it?
"When the final whistle (went) I was with the coaching staff hug(ging) each other, celebrating so I didn’t see nothing, I don’t know."
3. 01:25 SOUNDBITE (English): Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach:
"No, no, I said many times that we could do many things better. The way we attack and the way we defend but also the way to manage some moments, and probably this is one of the moments that we can improve. But overall with the spirit of the team, we know that sometimes you can receive some yellow cards, sometimes like probably the second one is not the correct one or the correct things to do. But (they) are things that we need to improve."
4. 02:00 SOUNDBITE (English): Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach:
"No, no, no, but you can talk about the title and the fans they can dream about the title, absolutely. But it’s not my…if you ask me, I tell you what I think and then you can think in different ways. Just because there are things that I think, no matter how many games we are going to win. For me, I don’t think we are ready but we are happy that the fans they can dream something more."
