  "account": "Manchester City coach Enzo Maresca expressed concern over his team's performance after they suffered their third consecutive Premier League defeat, losing 3-1 to Nottingham Forest. The Italian previously stated that he remains concerned even when the team wins, emphasizing the need for balance. City had won their first seven games of the season, but followed defeats to Aston Villa and Brighton with this loss at the City Ground. The visitors were two goals down within 18 minutes, scored by Jair Cunha and Liam Delap. Rayan Cherki's late goal provided a glimmer of hope, but Delap's second goal solidified the loss, leaving City six points behind leaders Arsenal. Maresca also revealed that Marc Guehi and Josko Gvardiol were substituted at halftime due to injury. The victory could be a turning point for Delap, who had only one goal in eight games for Forest following his club-record move from Chelsea. Forest manager Oliver Glasner praised Delap, stating that the player still has room for improvement, particularly in finishing, heading, movements in the box, and understanding the team's approach without possession.",
