- Maresca said Chelsea set out to try to win this European competition. The next step is to reach and play the final, and the first target is to do Chelsea's job tomorrow.
- Asked about the club's player of the season, Maresca said he has done well since day one, works very hard and is humble. A new contract is not for now; the focus is finishing the season well.
- Asked what the trophy would mean to him, Maresca said it matters much more for the club and the fans. Chelsea have never won it, he said, and could be the first club in Europe to win every European competition.
- Asked which would be the bigger success, this trophy or Champions League qualification through the league, Maresca said he had not thought about it. He is going game by game: tomorrow, then Newcastle away.
- Maresca said Chelsea have no injuries, and one player could be in tomorrow's squad, though that is not sure. More training days are probably better for him, but he is very close to returning.
“…any game can be a tricky game.”
- Asked about a possible final, Maresca said he considers Manuel Pellegrini a reference and a professional dad after working with him for four years. He would be happy for him, but the focus is tomorrow.
