Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca expressed confidence that Cole Palmer will recover from his first missed penalty, which ended his perfect record in the Premier League. Despite failing to score in nine consecutive matches, Maresca believes Palmer's future includes both misses and successful penalties. The squad is managing injuries with some players returning to training and the coach noting the team's strategy against FC Copenhagen in their Europa Conference League tie. Maresca anticipates a recovery period during the upcoming international break, hoping to regain energy and player fitness for the season's final push.
Absolutely, Cole is going to miss more penalties. I don't have any doubt in the future he is going to miss more penalties, but he is going to score more penalties. I don't think it affects him in a negative way.
I was surprised last week because I watched many games, and they were always defending off the ball. Then, against us, they were a line of five - even in the last game they played two days ago, they were a line of four.
We have two games, and finally we have the international break, where we can recover the energy, we can recover the players and go for the last sprint.
