Leicester City is heading into the international break with two back-to-back losses, but Enzo Maresca is not taking the criticism lying down. Despite their recent defeats, the Foxes had a phenomenal start to the Championship with 13 wins out of their first 14 games. However, after losing to Leeds United and Middlesbrough, Leicester’s lead at the top of the table has been diminished to just eight points.
Maresca has defended his team’s style of play, pointing out the patience shown by the fans and emphasizing the need for their support. He stressed that Leicester’s focus is not on a counter-attacking style of play, urging those who prefer it to watch other teams like Leeds United or Liverpool. Maresca’s unwavering belief in his team’s approach is evident, and despite the recent setbacks, Leicester remains confident as they prepare to face Watford.
With 39 points from 48 possible, Leicester is not faltering in their quest for promotion, and Maresca’s refusal to bend to criticism is a testament to his determination to stick to his principles.
