Man City boss Guardiola happy to hand Aleix Garcia chance

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was happy to hand Aleix Garcia his chance in victory over Bournemouth.

The Spaniard replaced Kevin de Bruyne for his Premier League debut before receiving praise from his manager.

“He's a great defensive midfielder and he doesn't feel the pressure but he's still young and he knows what he needs to improve," said Guardiola.

City eventually ran out comfortable 4-0 winners.
