Joe Cole says Chelsea have a huge, huge game coming up whilst speaking in his analysis report on TNT Sports last night.

The news comes after The Blues thrashed Swedish side Djurgarden 4-1 away from home in the first leg of the Conference League semi-final last night in what was a very convincing performance for Enzo Maresca’s side.

Winger Noni Madueke played the first half and then was subbed off, but he grabbed a tidy little goal and had a terrific performance before doing so. His overall effect on the game was great.

Then in the second half Chelsea finished things off with two goals scored by striker Nicolas Jackson, who had just arrived onto the pitch at half time to play the second half of the game.

Liverpool this weekend is huge

Cole was honing in on Chelsea’s Premier League game on Sunday and says it is what the focus would have been on last night.

Cole told TNT Sports:

“It’s rest now. All good managers they play on two or three games ahead so he would have said ;right, priority is Liverpool at the weekend’. Everyone had enough minutes, everyone is injury free. And you go again on Sunday and it’s a huge, huge game at Stamford Bridge.”

Youngster also praised

Maresca bought on 16-year-old Reggie Walsh for his senior debut and what a moment that was for him – he almost scored with his first touch too!

And he earned some fine praise from the boss after the game, who says the midfielder is perfect for his system.

I suspect this will not be the last we hear of this young rising star and props to Maresca for bringing him on.
