Manager for the Championship rebuild - who do you want?

[Matt]

Just gotta hope he's his own man rather than an imititation.

 

I mean Arteta was the assistant and he doesn't play the way Man City do and are far more exciting and entertaining - one of the far and few in the Premier League infact, likewise Enzo's mate De Zerbi.

This is very encouraging. If he develops players as well as people say, maybe now we'll see the Seagrave facilities properly used to what it was designed for. 

 

Agree.  I can see a Pizza Hut outlet on the site soon plus a Costa Coffee Shop.

He likes working with younger players as well, and that is what we need, with a mixture of experience

 

Only way forward for a team with our resources.

Any white smoke seen rising above KP Stadium?   

There was lots of black smoke seen over Wigston earlier. Waiting to see if connected.

One good reason for him to come here is so that he can experiment a bit with his tactical side philosophy and perfect it. Look at Man City this season, they actually struggled early on but that tweak to John Stones position and dropping Cancelo made them unstoppable. 
 

Also believe it or not during his failed spell at Parma, Maresca was criticised for being too attacking 😂

I love the naysayers laying down their negative vibes just incase it goes tits.

Is this negativity due to people that have worked closely with or for Pep have  had no success? 

I personally commend the club for not going the boring predictable route and am looking forward to seeing what unfolds 

[richard123]

This is far more exciting than the majority of dross we've been linked with. 

 

Let's hope for the following:

-he brings his own backroom team and coaches.

-he has learned from pep.

-he has an open door at Man City for us to bring some young and exciting players in on loan.

-he has the tactical knowledge over and above the managers in this league.

-he has some balls to rebuild lcfc, the squad, the fitness / sports therapy / the recruitment etc.

 

It's a risk but it's exciting.

 

Let's get behind him from the off.

Pep Guardiola: “He did an incredible job”

Maresca has been Guardiola’s right-hand man for the past season, helping Manchester City to win a historic treble. But first-team assistant manager was not his first job at the club.

In 2020, Maresca was appointed as the head coach of the club’s development squad. He guided them to their first Premier League 2 title.

On that success, Guardiola said: “I am delighted for Enzo Maresca, his staff and all of the players. It’s a fantastic achievement. Not only has the team showed incredible consistency, they have played brilliant football. They always want to attack, score goals, work hard and dominate matches. Some of their performances have been exceptional.”

The following season, after Maresca had left to become Parma manager, Guardiola again praised the Italian’s work after a 6-1 Carabao Cup victory over Wycombe in which he fielded many of Man City’s young players. He said: “I just want to say thank you to Enzo Maresca.

“Last season he did an incredible job with these players. An incredible job. I know it because we worked together in training many times and I saw them, the way they play, their understanding of the game. They are well-educated.”

Sousa tried to change too much too soon with what he didn't have, Enzo would need to bring in practically a whole squad of his own choice. 

Case of having too ?

This was Arteta's first decent season out of 4 for Arsenal to be fair
