Manchester City EDS coach Patrick Vieira is delighted with the progress of Jose Angel Pozo.
Pozo struck in City's Capital One Cup victory over Sheffield Wednesday last week.
"We are working on our objective to send so many players to the first team," Vieira told the Manchester Evening News.
"How much he will spend with the first team will be better for him, but also it will be better for the Under-21 players.
"When he is going with the first team he is doing well for himself, but he is doing well for the players as well. Pozo is doing well - he has opened the doors for the players to show what they can do.
"I would want him to stay with the first team if Manuel will keep him.
"Of course [it was nice to see him impress for the first team] but when he has come in from the first team to the U19, the U21s, what I like about Pozo is a love for the game and working hard, like everybody else.
"I think he made people understand that he just wants to play football and the team was around him giving him the ball, he can hold the ball, he was fantastic."
