Maresca expects Anderson to contribute significantly for Man City

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca expressed confidence in new signing Elliot Anderson ahead of the Community Shield match against Arsenal. Anderson, a recent £116 million recruit from Nottingham Forest, is seen as a potential key player following Bernardo Silva's departure. Maresca acknowledges the challenge of replacing Silva and emphasized that Anderson will bring different qualities to the midfield. Anderson has yet to fully integrate with his teammates after additional time off post-World Cup. Expectations are high for his first competitive appearance with the club, which could demonstrate his role in the team.
