Maresca on injuries with Vardy being managed and not in training
“Kasey is still out. Jamie hasn’t trained. He just needs to rest a little bit. We’ll see if he’s available for the session. Dennis is still out.
“Kasey it’s the same problem he had in the past. A bit less than the previous one. Hopefully he can be two or three weeks.
“It’s not an injury for Jamie. It’s a matter to manage him because of his age. He didn’t train with us in the last two days."
Maresca on Coady v Vestergaard as Dane returns from suspension
“Always difficult, not only now because Conor played and we kept a clean sheet. Even before it was difficult because he’s a great player for us. We’ve had many clean sheets with Jannik too. The important thing is we have everybody available.”
What do you know about finances?
"I have been told the same that you can read everywhere. It’s not something I am paying attention to. We’ll see in the next weeks.”
Can it be a distraction?
“No, to be honest. We have to be focused. At the same time, it’s something we don’t like. We have 10 more games that’s the most important thing for us. In the next days, we’ll see what happens. It’s something I can’t control, and so there’s nothing to do.”
More important to get promotion now?
“We always said that getting promoted is something important. Because I don’t know what’s going on in the next days, I don’t have the feeling that it’s more important.”
Are points deductions taking enjoyment out of football?
"It’s so complicated. They tried to explain to me but I stopped them because it was so complicated. Even if they use social media, so they read information, and this can be bad for the players. They are intelligent.”
Maresca on promotion race and not setting target with 10 games to go
“We are close and have 10 games to go. We have to focus game by game and then we’ll see at the end. If you start to think about how many wins you need, it’s a big mistake. You could win six and they could win 10 of 10. QPR and Sheffield Wednesday are winning. Everybody is fighting to survive. Every game would be difficult.”
Maresca on beating Sunderland and ending three-match losing run
“I didn’t see the players worried before that game. The three defeats, I don’t think we deserved one of them. The Sunderland one was the one we didn’t create so many chances. We can’t control the result, just the way we want to play. Sometimes there is no space, like QPR at home. I saw them happy after Sunderland. But it’s a matter of balance. There is still 10 games and 30 points, so it’s still very long, unfortunately for us.”
