Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has singled out the likes of Rayan Cherki and Ruben Dias for special praise following his side’s Premier League 3-0 win against Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Guardiola watched as a brace from Erling Haaland and a goal from Phil Foden ensured Man City defeated Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Speaking after the game, the Spaniard said Cherki has special vision, while he described Dias as a real leader.
“In the final third, he [Cherki] has a special vision. He keeps the ball,” Guardiola was quoted as saying by Fabrizio Romano.
“And he’s settled good since he arrived… very, very good,” he said.
He added, “Ruben Dias is an incredible leader.
“Consistent, no injuries, how he leads his mates, vocal – he’s an incredible signing for us from many years and many years to come! He’s a real captain, a real leader.”
Guardiola’s side is two points behind Arsenal, who are on top of the Premier League table.
