HNK Hajduk Split currently not in the best shape. Dario Marešić, Hajduk's new weak link, in crisis of faith. Hajduk currently not in the position to utilize Marešić's technique and skill in the game. Hajduk currently not in the position to win in every match.
In Istria, he was in the right role
Dario Marešić came to Hajduk as a ready-made player. At that time, he had already spent three years in Istria and had established himself as a key player in the team. Under the guidance of many coaches, he oscillated, and even moved out of the defensive position, but it was known what he brought, and some of his most successful results brought him to Hajduk because they were part of the collaboration with current coach Gonzalo García.
Hajduk is a complete opposite
In Hajduk, there is no such thing. He came to Hajduk who has not had a physically dominant defensive midfielder who would protect key spaces in front of the defense for a long time, nor a physically dominant defender who would carry most of the defensive burden so that Marešić's play in possession could come to the fore as an antidote. Although the example is still small, Alec Van Hoorenbeeck looks like a very similar type of player. Left-footed and seems a bit faster than Marešić, but is not even remotely different enough for that tandem to be able to function and extract the best from each other.
Kiks against Istria is a manifestation of all problems
Hajduk was not
