Before the League Cup match against Wolves, Chelsea coach Maresca talked about the situation of Ganacho and Achampang. He said that Ganacho has adapted well and he has full confidence in Achampang.
About Ganacho
- Ganacho is doing a great job and he is a player we are trying to manage because he was not at 100% when he came here from Manchester United. Every day he is training hard and getting better and better and we are very happy with his performance so far.
About Achang Pang
- We are pleased with his progress and hard work every day, I have always liked him since I came here. If you look back, in the preseason in the United States last season, he played 45 minutes in the first game. So I absolutely loved Achang Pang from day one.
I hope he feels trusted and becomes part of the team. It's not easy to start in the Champions League and Premier League, so we showed him trust and confidence. We try to distribute minutes and rotate, first of all because we need to manage players like Fofana who are coming back from injury.
Badiasil was unfortunately injured again, but we tried to manage him. There are also Adarabioyo, Achampang and Chalobah. There are a lot of reasons why we try to rotate, but when you have two permanent centre-backs, like we did with Fofana and Colwell for the first five to six months last season, it's good for their combination and their growth.
But now we are trying to rotate, and slowly things will get better. Still, consistency is always better in any aspect, whether it's a player, a team, or anyone.
