00:00With the appointment of Enzo Maresca, do you think he's capable of following Guardiola or do you think that is
00:06an impossible task to do?
00:09Yeah, I mean, it's near on impossible to achieve the same height that Pep has achieved.
00:19It's probably natural that them players will feel almost like a little pressure is being lifted.
00:26Regardless of who comes in, they can't have the same intensity as Pep Guardiola.
00:30It's almost impossible and the players won't, without being disrespectful,
00:34they won't have the same level of concentration as they had under Pep because naturally there's going to be a
00:42drop-off in a couple of players.
00:44So that's a real challenge for Maresca coming in.
00:47I think we've seen it with Arsenal, we've seen it with Man Utd when a manager who controls everything leaves
00:53the football club
00:54but becomes very difficult for a period of time and Man City have set the bar so high.
00:59I think everyone's probably understanding that Maresca can't or isn't expected to achieve the same heights as Pep
01:06and there might be a little bit of leeway in people realising it's going to be really hard,
01:11it's going to be really difficult to follow what's gone up front.
01:14To stay at the same level would be an achievement.
01:17To achieve even more is near on impossible.
01:19So I think you'll have the full backing of everyone, the support of everyone
01:23and the understanding that it's not going to be the same, it's going to be different
01:26and he needs to be given a little bit of time to achieve and to recreate his own history, I
01:33suppose.
