City boss Enzo Maresca says spotlight not on him ahead of Manchester derby
Reported by Varun Krishnan (Senior Writer) · Al Jazeera - All News ·
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has said that he is not the main focus of attention as he prepares to face Manchester United in Sunday's derby, with the team looking to maintain their 100 percent record this season. The City boss takes the Premier League leaders to Old Trafford, where they have an impressive record, having lost only once in the past 15 years. However, Manchester United have struggled so far this season, winning only one of their opening three games to sit five points behind City. Maresca, who previously worked as Pep Guardiola's assistant, stressed that his main concerns are the team, fans, and the league table. A recent comment from midfielder Elliot Anderson, who signed a 116 million pound ($157m) transfer deal, has also been noted, with Maresca clarifying that Anderson's claim that City are the 'kings of Manchester' is rooted in the team's dominance over the past 15 years. With City at the top of the league, Maresca believes a win against United would be beneficial for the team and the fans, but also acknowledged that the main focus is not on his personal derby debut.
