Before Manchester City's friendly against Inter, Wright-Phillips was interviewed at an event in Hong Kong, talking about his expectations for the match.

What do you think Maresca will achieve?

"It seems that people who leave Manchester City eventually come back here, and I look forward to seeing how he performs and what he achieves. He stabilized the situation at Chelsea, chose his squad, adjusted the lineup he wanted to use throughout the season, and achieved success in his short coaching career."

"I learned from Chelsea fans that many of them were very disappointed by his departure, and so were the players. So now that he can come here, and the players all enjoy playing with him, these are all good things."

Manchester City is about to play Inter

"You always want to challenge the strongest opponents, and Inter is one of them, not only physically but also tactically and technically, so it will be a very good fight and a good test for everyone."

How important is preparation for the new season?

"It's very important, because in my era, many old players called it 'money in the bank,' which is like your fallback plan. You set a benchmark for yourself, and then usually you start getting healthier and healthier from that benchmark."

"So, to gain match experience, especially for young players who are growing up, they must see this as a huge opportunity, and in many ways, it is an excellent opportunity for them to prove that they can get into the first-team squad."
