Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has hailed his side after an emphatic win in the EFL Cup against Barrow. The Blues beat the third-tier club 5-0 in the third round of the competition.
Former Leicester City boss made 11 changes to his side that overcame West Ham at the weekend. Christopher Nkunku scored the first of his three goals in the eighth minute. Pedro Neto and Nkunku extended the advantage after the break.
Maresca was gold with how the Blues squad who started seamlessly took on board his game plan and tactics. The Italian said as quoted by football.london, “Very happy with the performance, with the result. We made many changes but the idea was the same.
“This has to be one of our targets, no matter who we play, for the identity of the team to always be there.
He added: “Before the game I asked the players even because we are the youngest squad in the league, I asked them to show how serious we are. Send a message: We are young, we are serious.”
