Gundogan set to embellish City
This is Guardiola’s team, it will be a great looking day in Manchester, and this is a game you just can not miss.
City continue to be without captain Vincent Kompany, who is recovering from groin and thigh surgery and has not played since May.
Last season, he could only watch as City ran riot 5-1 and 4-0 in both league games last season under Manuel Pellegrini’s stewardship. “I need him to put pressure on John Stones, Nico Otamendi, (Aleksandar) Kolarov – all of them”. “We’ll see today, we’ll talk to the doctors”.
“Defensively we need to adjust small details”.
Manchester City have reportedly agree a new contract extension with superstar striker Sergio Aguero that will keep the Argentine at the Etihad Stadium for another year beyond the expiration of his current deal.
“No”, Guardiola said when asked if he was ever completely satisfied.
“I’m really happy with the way we have started the season”.
Summer signing Ilkay Gundogan replaced him in the midweek squad to make his debut for the club, but Guardiola has not yet decided whether the Germany global will play against the Cherries, per M.E.N. “They have to know if they don’t play good then there’s another player beside me [on the bench] and the next time he is going to play”.
Do you think these players will add quality to City’s already strong team? “The schedule is the schedule, when you are in a big club you have to get used to playing every three days, it’s a good mentality”.
“We had for the weather conditions one day more, for our regeneration after the Manchester United game, and now we have one day less for our regeneration, but it is what it is”.
“We are really happy for his great performance and he will help us a lot”.
Next week’s EFL Cup tie against Swansea gives him the chance to rest some of his stars, so I expect him to go with as strong a team as possible against Bournemouth.
