Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was left pleased with their 3-1 win against Leicester City.

John Stones and an Erling Haaland double had City 3-0 ahead before Kelechi Iheanacho pulled one back for the visitors.

Guardiola later said: "Yeah it was a really good game after the Champions League as well, against a team that is fighting in a difficult position for them. In the end when you make a lot of substitutions you drop a little bit. [We got the] three points and onto the next one.

"It was completely different because the guys that start the second half it was the same approach as the beginning. I have a little bit of experience to play in three days in the important stages and you make a lot of substitutions and some dynamics we have and some players don't. And when the game was under control we made the changes."

Asked if he had been worried after Leicester's goal, Guardiola added: "Of course we were worried, so we made one mistake and the second they had the chance with James Maddison and after with Kelechi Iheanacho. The game was tricky in the last 20 minutes. But the first 55, 60 minutes was good."
