Enzo Maresca spoke to BBC Match of the Day after Chelsea's victory against Bournemouth: "First half we struggled, second half we were miles better. We didn't win many balls in the first half and you need that in this type of stadium against this team."

On Sancho's debut: "He did exactly what we expected from him and Tosin was the same and Nkunku too. Felix was very good. All the guys from the bench were very good. We were creating chances and we needed just a bit more quality from inside the box and he [Sancho] did that. Nkunku is not starting but he is working very well.

"If you see the game against Palace, we create many chances but this is football. We deserve to win."

On Robert Sanchez: "Since we started, he is doing very well with us and we are very happy. He is giving us what we need from a keeper and is doing very well with the build-up. He recognises when we need to play short or long. We enjoy the three points."
