Why is Maresca blamed when 1) He's clearly playing his best 6 at the 6? Oh no wait, his best 6 is on the bench while his 8 is playing as a 6. 2) But at least Maresca is playing a defensively solid player next to his 8 turned 6? Oh no wait he's playing Enzo Fernandez there who appears more in the opposition box than next to his 6. 3) Surely he's playing City's best CB of more than a year whose last big goal giving mistake was on his debut 2+ years ago? Oh no that CB is being played as an RB 4) Oh maybe the CB starting is a very mistake free player then? Oh he's made more goal conceding mistakes by himself in the last month than many big teams make in a season? 5) Hey maybe City doesn't have a good RB, so their best CB had to play RB? Oh Man City have a top level RB who almost never puts a foot wrong and he's not injured, just benched by the manager? Well hey don't blame Maresca when Manchester City concede 2 goals in 20 minutes to Nottingham Forest right? What can he do?
