Enzo Maresca New Leicester Manager

[TJQuik]

No idea if it will work out, I feel a bit numb about the whole situation at the moment to be honest. Imagine if we signed any of the other ***** that were listed though, it doesn't bare thinking about.

 

But please for the love of god, can we not use a version of a song from an advert (which is itself a shite version of a good track) for his chant please?

[KP Fox]

Welcome to Leicester City Enzo. Wishing you the very best of luck. 🦊💙

I hope he's a right bastard whilst getting respect. It's what we've need for years.

If he’s taken much from working with pep and can get us easy access to some Man City loans/signings then this works well.

A new dawn has broken has it not 

[majaco]

No new signings yet?  Get your arse in gear, Enzo.

Does remind me a bit of the Pearson appointment in 2008 - a bit of a left field appointment taking over a shambles of a team and changing the mentality extremely quickly. 

Mentality is one of the aspects that excites me most. He's coming from an environment that's geared towards winning and winning by playing great football. Where 2nd best is inadequate and OK is unacceptable. Complete winners' mentality and keen to prove himself in management.

 

The fact he apparently turned down Southampton shows he's waited for the right club at the right time too. He obviously thinks he can build something here. 

[Wymsey]

Who's his assistant?

[kingkisnorbo]

Vincenzo’s at the wheel babeh🇮🇹

[cityfanlee23]

Right, time to scout the Manchester City fringe/youth seetup.

Yep, 3-4-1-2 is his preferred system.

Sure he’ll be great but not to piss on your Mr Chips, he sounds like a Manager Watford would bring in and sack after two games

So every manager ever, then?

Much more like it.

 

I hope he's an arsehole when he needs to be and inspiring when the players need a lift.

I mean that's literally Nigel Pearson and half this forum would wank themselves into a coma over seeing a set of white trainers in the dugout.

The most important thing is to try to win games.

Clearly knows his stuff this guy

Who needs Pep when you’ve got Ep

Just need to makesure Stowell and Sadler are gone for it to be perfect.

To go from Pep's coaching team to getting advice from those two will be a shock to his system

I may be wrong, but don't think that's accurate. I'd expect 4-3-3 from him. I suppose we will see.

[brookfox]

Looks like we’re going with a 415 formation. Let the fun begin!

First time in ages as a Leicester fan.. delighted with this
