Enzo Maresca’s powerful ’15-word private message’ to Man City players ahead of Liverpool

Enzo Maresca reportedly delivered a defiant 15-word private message to his Manchester City squad ahead of their Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield. According to reports, Maresca instructed his players to ignore off-pitch distractions, telling them: "Forget the noise, we're here to win a league. Let's go and win the league."

The message comes amid heightened scrutiny after an independent panel found Manchester City guilty of 114 rule breaches, a verdict the club is currently appealing. Maresca publicly reinforced his stance in his pre-match press conference, stating that the squad remains entirely focused on pitch matters, while former manager Pep Guardiola also voiced support for the club.
