Enzo Maresca Pre-Match Press Conference vs Sunderland
Yunus?
“He’s doing a scan now. So in a bit we will have some news. Tomorrow is complicated. Hopefully it’s nothing serious.”
Any other injuries? Any returning players?
“Tom and Kasey they are very close. Hopefully end of this week or next week they can start with us. That’s all.”
Swansea?
“It has been a good feeling. We continued in the same way we were playing. No panic, calm. We continued with our idea that is giving us results. We are happy about that.”
Sum up start in one word?
“Learning. I try to see what is working well or not working and see what we can improve. It’s a process.”
Relegation a motivating factor for players?
“Probably a question for them. After relegation, it’s always complicated. Many players left. The players who stayed here are not mentally positive. Don’t forget we lost around 14 or 15 players. That’s a big number. The players who are here, like JJ was injured, Ricardo was injured, Jannik was not involved.”
Vestergaard?
“What I saw is what he is doing. In our style, he can give us a lot. At the beginning, we brought in Conor to do the same but unfortunately he was injured for a long time. Jannik has been very serious, very professional. He trains very well.”
Winks?
“It’s a main player, an important player. He was our target number one. He was one of the main targets. I know Harry from a long time ago and when he moved to Italy I thought he was a very good player.
“At the end, every player under different managers can give more or less. Harry’s skills are perfect for us. That’s why he is doing so well for us. We are helping him and he is helping us.”
Sunderland?
“They are third in the Championship for possession and they are very dangerous on the counter-attack. I expect them to be aggressive. They have very good players, like Bellingham.”
Spreading goals around?
“Very happy. When a player scores, it’s always something important. We try to get them all involved in our style. The five players at the front, they have to be close to the box, so it’s easier for them to score.”
Fatawu first goal?
“We are happy for Fatawu but I’m very happy for Stephy because he played a brilliant game on the ball and off the ball. This is the level we expect from him.”
Rotation?
“We’ll see. We have a session today. We’ll see if some of them are tired or if some are fresh.”
Anniversary of helicopter crash and chairman's legacy?
“Every time something like this happens it is sad. I was at the stadium that night. I was on the bench that night, working with West Ham. The legacy they are showing for the family is unbelievable.
“These kinds of things don’t have colours. It’s always bad news. The memory is about sadness.
“You can see clearly. We went for the pre-season in Thailand. I feel proud to be part of this rebuild. All Leicester fans have to be proud about this because it’s not easy to find people who invest like this
