Manchester City reserve goalkeeper Scott Carson says Ederson is as good as any keeper he's worked with.

Carson, who has worked alongside top keepers like Paul Robinson, Pepe Reina, David James, Robert Green in a career which includes four England caps and spells at Leeds, Liverpool, Aston Villa and West Brom, has no doubts about the Brazilian's status.

He told the Manchester Evening News: “He's one of the best, if not the best I've worked with. When I go through all those I have worked with, there are things you can pick holes in, but Eddy is right up there because all-round he's top-class.

“Everyone knows how good his feet are but he comes in every morning, is in the gym and works hard on the training ground, always wanting to improve.

"I can't speak highly enough of him."
