THE Maresca was extremely satisfied with the effort of his players at “Anfield” on Sunday afternoon. So does the world of “blue».
The result may have been negative, however, the Londoners showed that with the Italian coach at the end of the bench they only take steps forward, having of course the enormous depth in the roster to serve every purpose in every different event.
Having closed with its 8th game Premier Leaguebut also with the Stoiximan Super League, Panathinaikos and Chelsea they now look to meeting each other on Thursday night (19:45) for the 2nd matchday of the League Phase of the Conference League.
There, Enzo Maresca is expected to completely change his team again, which will have nothing to do with the one presented in “Anfield» against Liverpool. After all, it is customary for the “blue” coach to use completely different faces in domestic and European duties. And last time he had lined up an ensemble that was varied by… 11/11!

There are stable in terms of how the Chelsea manager has set up his plans for the Conference League games. And somewhere here we remind you that Cole Palmer he will not come to Athensafter being left out of the roster for League Phase and will be eligible for the knockouts with the new year.
THE Jorgensen at the goalposts and the Disassi – Badiasil think the most confident about the rear. It might also be placed there Tosin Andarabioyoalthough he was also present at Anfield, playing alongside Colwill at full-back and Rhys James at right-back. This also caused Gusto to shift to the left.
THE Mudrik has started in all three of Chelsea’s European matches this year, also playing in the doubleheader against Napkin in the Playoffs, but also in the premiere of the League Phase with the Ghent. In the midfield each time there was a different duo, with Dewsbury – Hall to have Enzo Fernandez, Casadei and Caicedo by his side.
Chelsea or nothing. ??#CFC | #LIVCHE pic.twitter.com/ysKu7lJ1oR

THE Renato Vega is still one of Maresca’s “constants”, while in the attack there is a different triplet. Nkunku is the only one starting in Chelsea’s European trials. Since then he has played with Neto-Giou, Felix – Neto and Giou – Madueke.
After the premiere of the championship with Citythe “blue” coach had kept only Caicedo and Encuncu in the 11 of the home game against Servette. The trip to Switzerland was preceded by a match against Wolves. Chelsea had diversified on 8/11. Enzo, Mudrik and Madueke started in both matches.
The highlight came in the match against Ghent. A few days earlier it had been held 4-2 over Brighton with the history frame of Palmer. Maresca completely changed his whole team! All 11 faces were different! And yet they achieved the goal of starting the League Phase with a win…
And now, Panathinaikos…
