Manchester City winger Vladimir Weiss was thrilled with his Premiership debut in victory over Bolton Wanderers.

He told City's website: "The fans might have remembered me a bit from the FA Youth Cup. They are a great crowd, and I'm really grateful for the welcome they gave me. I think making my debut was the best feeling of my life.

"I was praying for a nice day, because I don't like the rain! I said 'please, please let it be a sunny day.' And everything was perfect. It was a fantastic feeling, something that every footballer wants.

"The boss talked about it during the week and said I might get a game because there was nothing at stake for us. I really hoped I would play, but there were 27 in the squad, so I'm thinking: maybe, maybe not.

"But when the boss said to go and warm up, that's when I got the butterflies. I was nervous before I went on, I just wanted to get the ball. Shaun gave it to me, and I tried to beat my defender and won a corner."

Weiss added: "I want to play for City, I love this club. I've been here four years, I'm happy, and I want to stay. If I get chances to play, I will be the happiest man in the world."
