Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca explained João Félix’s lack of minutes .

“I’m sorry and I would like to give him more minutes in the Premier League , but I’ve said many times that we need defensive balance and we can’t play with João, Cole Palmer , Nkunku ,” he began by pointing out, in the press conference ahead of the duel with the Armenians of Noah, for the Conference League .

“I would like to put everyone on the pitch, but you have to defend and you need a good balance between attacking and defending and that is the only reason. I have no doubt that if João continues to work well he will find his moment in the Premier League ,” he added.
