Chelsea interim coach, Calum McFarlane has hailed three Blues players for keeping the team together after Enzo Maresca departed from the Premier League west London club.
Speaking after Chelsea’s recent Premier League 1-1 draw with Manchester City, McFarlane lauded Reece James, Tosin Adarabioyo, and Enzo Fernandez for their leadership and unifying influence in the Blues’ squad.
“I think it is a good moment to speak about the players. This is not an easy job,” McFarlane told reporters after the match.
“There is a lot of change that has gone on. Enzo was incredibly successful with this group. Some of them were shocked by the decision to sack Maresca.
“The character that they have shown today. Reece is a big one. Reece, Tosin and Enzo have really dragged the group together.”
Chelsea’s next Premier League tie is against Fulham on Wednesday.
