1. 00:00 SOUNDBITE: (English) Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach (on the future of forwards Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku):
"We’ll see if they are going to be here, they will be with us. In case they are not here, that means that they found a solution. At the end I think it’s always better if they find a solution because I think they are going to be more happy and the club the same."
2. 00:23 SOUNDBITE: (English) Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach (on Wesley Fofana after he deleted all references to Chelsea from his Instagram page):
"I spoke with Wes every day (and) he’s very, very happy. First of all, because he’s back from the injury. He is joining all the sessions with us. He is very happy. As I said after the (Crystal) Palace game, he was on the bench just to be with us. But, from tomorrow he is with us and he can also get some minutes. We are happy and he is happy. Then, about Instagram, as you know, unfortunately I do not have any idea [about his Instagram activity] because I don’t use social networks."
3. 01:07 SOUNDBITE: (English) Enzo Maresca, Chelsea head coach (on West Ham):
"Tough game, again. All the Premier League games are tough, they are difficult. If you remember the game at home last year was a difficult game for us. They defended very well. Tomorrow I expect exactly the same. Again, the Premier League just started so you can see they are trying to find some solutions in the same way we are doing."

STORYLINE:
Enzo Maresca has called on forwards Nicolas Jackson and Christpher Nkunku to look for futures away from Chelsea with the transfer window closing in just 11 days time.
The pair were absent from the squad that drew with Crystal Palace on the opening day of the season and are once again not expected to be called upon when Chelsea make the short trip across the capital to face West Ham on Friday.
Maresca also played down suggestions that the returning Wesley Fofana is unhappy at the club after the French defender removed all his social media posts relating to Chelsea from his Instagram page.
Chelsea won both home and away against West Ham last season winning 3-0 at the London Stadium and 5-0 at Stamford Bridge.
