Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca to BBC Match of the Day: "Good performance. Overall we deserved to win. It was also a good game to learn many things.

"For the first 30 minutes we were in complete control of the game and then started to make some mistakes and lost some control. In the last 10 minutes of the first half we started to be a bit sloppy. This is something we can learn that in football you can’t drop anything."

On Nicolas Jackson: "Since we started he’s doing fantastic. Everyone is watching the goals and assists but the way he works off the ball and presses, he’s doing very well."

On Enzo Fernandez: "Enzo is doing fantastic since we started. The game plan requires different types of players for every day. Today was a game for Enzo."

On facing his old club: "It’s been a pleasure to see old friends and good people."
