Maresca is among the most highly-rated coaches in modern football. His teams have a reputation for controlling games, courtesy of his tactical approach. At Leicester, as well as in previous spells as head coach of Manchester City’s Elite Development Squad and with Parma, he has used inverted full-backs. He also assisted Pep Guardiola during Manchester City’s treble-winning campaign, where the concept of a player from the back line joining the midfield was employed. Now, in this exclusive Masterclass, Maresca explains the thinking behind a full-back coming inside, how that can match up against various opposition formations, plus the positional requirements of the role.
