Maresca on Chelsea’s recent ill discipline

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca on their recent ill discipline and red cards ahead of their Premier League clash with Liverpool Cobham, London, UK

Transcript

00:00I know that you've spoken a lot about discipline, 25 yellows and three reds in your nine games,

00:07and I remember speaking to Mikhail Teta about it and he said actually he chose not to speak

00:14too closely to his players about it because it almost becomes more of a thing.

00:20What's your approach with your players in terms of crossing that line?

00:24Because as you said it's costing you games.

00:26Yeah, you have to analyze case for case.

00:31You know, when it's a red card for bad intention or for bad discipline,

00:38it's different compared to my United red card or Brighton red card.

00:43In that case it's just the decision that you have to take in two seconds, three seconds.

00:51Do I do foul or not? It's difficult.

00:54So we analyze case for case.

00:58Again, I don't see any discipline problem, even if we consider, I think, three, four red cards.

01:06That is not something normal.

01:08But again, it's for different reasons.

01:11It takes a lot of time, okay.

01:12I don't see any of them on the list.

01:13It's okay.

01:27I do not see any other questions.

01:29I do not see any of them each other.

01:31I do not feel any of them on the list.
