Enzo Maresca refused a journalist’s approaches to try and get the Chelsea boss to talk about Mikel Arteta and his reign as Arsenal manager. 0:00 I’m focused on Chelsea not Arsenal or Mikel Arteta. 0:54 Arteta’s longevity? It’s a question for the Arsenal board. 1:12 I just said that Arsenal have had the same manager for the last five years. 1:22 Chelsea will follow the model they want to follow and not copy Arsenal. 1:39 The gap between us and Arsenal is quite big.

Four wins in a row but it doesn’t mean we will now win all the games. 6:54 Lavia and Fofana are important players and we lost them during crucial parts of the season. In the last four or five weeks we’ve struggled to score goals. 7:44 Strange that both us and Arsenal don’t have any fit strikers. We are both trying to find solutions. We will see if Sunday we will use Pedro Neto as a stri
