  "account": "Nine new managers have started their campaigns in the Premier League this season, with mixed results. Enzo Maresca took over at Manchester City, and within six minutes, he had a statement win only to lose the match due to late goals. Liverpool's Andoni Iraola had a tough start as his team suffered a heartbreaking loss to Chelsea, with Robert Sanchez being a poor goalkeeper. Fulham's Alonso also had a disappointing start, losing to Chelsea with his team relying too much on Robert Sanchez. Palace's Jose Luis Enrique showed promise with a strong team performance, while Ipswich's Kieran McKenna's successor Gary O Neil had a successful debut, but there is still much work to be done. Enzo Maresca's successor at Manchester City, Carlo Ancelotti, also had a decent start with Manchester City beating Bournemouth.",
