Jakarta, ThedailyID — Manchester City coach Enzo Maresca remains confident despite his team’s three consecutive defeats in the Premier League this season.
Maresca believes City can return to winning ways after their 1-3 loss to Nottingham Forest in the 10th round of the 2026/2027 Premier League on Saturday, November 7. Before that defeat, City also lost to Brighton and Aston Villa.
“We had seven wins in a row, and now we have lost three consecutive games. We need balance to deal with this situation,” Maresca said at a post-match press conference, according to Manchester City’s official website.
The Italian coach plans to use the international break to improve the team’s performance. City will not play again until November 21, giving the squad two weeks to regroup.
“Now we are approaching the international break. We will do what we did before and use this period to show that we can improve,” he said.
“We know we can do some things better and address several issues. We will use this break to understand how to avoid results like this happening again,” he added.
Despite the losing streak, City remain second in the Premier League standings. Erling Haaland and his teammates have collected 21 points from 10 matches.
However, their position faces growing pressure as the gap between the teams narrows. Brighton & Hove Albion also have 21 points and sit third. They still have a match against Brentford on Sunday (November 8).
