"You Lack Information" - Enzo Maresca Hints at Ongoing Chelsea Red Card Problem
Story updated
The story in brief
10-second readManchester City manager Enzo Maresca was keen to point out an ongoing problem within Chelsea regarding the receiving of red cards, insisting that it simply was not just an issue during his time at Stamford Bridge.
From the source
The Etihad Stadium's Italian head coach has been at the centre of a number of big decisions made regarding his recent Manchester City line-ups and in-game substitution choices of late.
Most notably, at Villa Park during the club's 2-1 defeat to Unai Emery's Aston Villa side, both Marc Guehi and Rayan Cherki were withdrawn at the half-time interval with Manchester City trailing.
In midweek, with Brighton & Hove Albion leading City by a 1-2 scoreline in the Carabao Cup fourth round, Enzo Maresca would bring on Jeremy Doku to replace Allan Elias on the hour mark of the cup clash.
