Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure is full of praise for new teammate Fernandinho.
The pair have been quick to find an understanding in City's midfield.
Toure told Fichajes.net: "Fernandinho is a great player. Very clever. He reads the game well, is very technical, very physical. He is very safe, works hard and is very strong in the duels.
"In his debut, he did well, he was happy. He wants to learn, this is the most important to me, he is very open, which is very good."
