Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca says Cole Palmer is "okay" after holding his groin late on in Wednesday's Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich.

On the fitness of the rest of his squad, he added: "We have a session now and flew back yesterday so we need to assess some of the players.

"There are some doubts but we haven't done any sessions after Wednesday's game so we will see after."

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca on Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi in the 'bomb squad': "I've been in Raheem and Axel's situation as a player and for sure I know it is not the best feeling.

"For different reasons, the situation is the situation. The club is giving them the opportunity to work in the right way and that is all I can say."

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca on facing Manchester Utd: "The reality is that they have all week to prepare a game and we played a game 48 hours ago but I prefer to play Champions League games."

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca on Alejandro Garnacho: "In the last two games, he came on and did very good.

"We are happy with how he is adapting in our style and what we want for our winger. If he is ready to start tomorrow? I think he is ready to start."

As I say, we'll have full quotes shortly but Enzo Maresca has been asked about the situation with Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi following news that the Professional Footballers' Association is in talks with Chelsea over their handling of the outcast duo.

"It's not just Chelsea, it's every club in the world," Maresca said.

"When for any reason, the player and the club does not find any solution, you give the player the tools to train but if you are not involved in the squad, you are not involved in the squad."

So we'll have the best of his quotes shortly.

That's your lot from what seemed a never-ending David Moyes news conference.

I'm running to run and grab a coffee while I have 30 seconds to breathe and handing the reins to Sam Drury.

We aren't stopping there though, it's straight into Enzo Maresca now!

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes: "I think it's about having a realism on where the two clubs are. I need to try and shorten the gulf between them.

"At the moment Liverpool are champions and probably favourites for the Champions League and we are Everton who have just come out of three or four difficult seasons so trying to bridge that gap is quite difficult to do."

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes on Liverpool's spending: "You have to earn the right [to spend]. You have to win and be in the big competitions to make the money and I found at West ham three years in Europe allowed us to spend money so from that point of view I think Liverpool are entitled to [spend].

"I heard Arne [Slot] defending himself about that he has brought in a lot and he certainly has done.

"I still think that they've spent more on one player than we have done on a whole squad."

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes on James Garner out of position: "Leighton Baines has had a roll in everything because we are all involved in trying to prepare the players and get them ready for the games.

"I think Jimmy [Garner] is playing as well as anybody at the moment and I think he's probably playing as well as any English midfield player in the country at the moment as well.

"He's had to play a few games at left-back and he's done really well and shown his versatility and we know that if we have to use him we can do that. Ultimately, his form as a midfield player has been really good."

Everton manager David Moyes on Liverpool's late winners: "The better sides tend to sort of wear you down a little bit and concentration changes. In the main we've shown resilience in defence so we'll be looking to maintain that.

"We are all aware [of their late goals], it was the same with [Sir Alex] Fergie, he used to be getting Fergie time and in the referees ear saying they need to get one second extra time and getting late goals because his team kept preparing themselves to score and I see that as the same with Liverpool."

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes on xG: "I like to look at [just] shots because that is sort of telling us... I mean if you actually look in to what it means we actually had quite a few shots blocked [in our last match] because of very good defending from Aston Villa.

"There's parts of that we have to look in to and see what we can take out of it. I hope it can continue and we can have 20 shots against Liverpool at Anfield tomorrow."

Everton manager David Moyes on enjoying the derby: "I think I'd been lying if I said yes. It's a lot easier if you are with the team that has the strongest squad and I think we are up against it.

"We have to go there and fight for everything we can and be competitive and make sure that we play where we've showed signs of improving and make sure we show that in the game.

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes on Liverpool's late winners: "They've got a strength which a lot of the clubs have and I heard Mikel [Arteta] call them 'finishers' the other day.

"I think you should be able to bring people off the bench and maybe help to change the game and certainly have an impact. Teams are using it [the bench] and certainly teams at the top of the league who have so many games and play a lot are needing the extra players.

"We have as well, we think we have got people who are not always starters who we think can come on and finish the game."

Everton manager David Moyes on Liverpool's weaknesses: "I certainly wouldn't tell you [what I'll tell my players] because that would be giving it away but your question is a good one in as much as Liverpool have shown at different times where they have been very good but other times when they have shown some vulnerability when they have conceded goals.

"We will have to try and take advantage of those moments as well. We played them last year at Anfield and lost to an offside goal and we want to try and run them close again and maybe this time things will go in our favour."

Everton

Everton manager David Moyes on how the players view the derby: "If you've played in derbies or if you've been involved in any then you'll know it's always hugely important to win it if you can that's the job.

"I think everyone is fully aware of it, it is led by the media and the supporters and it's such a big game and it has come quite early in the season this one but it will give us a chance to see where we are against one of the top teams."

Everton manager David Moyes on his plans for Alexander Isak: "I can't focus on the Liverpool players, I've got to focus on getting my own players ready and fit for the game and get them performing well.

"Undoubtedly you have to consider that they have got some really talented footballers and Isak is another one of them."
