Man City boss Guardiola hails 4-year impact of Walker

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has highlighted the impact of Kyle Walker over the four years he's been with the club.

Since his move from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of 2017 the full back has been a mainstay in Guardiola's side, helping City claim every available domestic honour in his time at the Etihad.

“The level Kyle has shown with us these four years has been fantastic," he declared.

“He's another person who has his life calm and in order, he's such an important player for us

“After 4 years there are moments when you can be down but last game he showed how important he is.

“He has to handle the best strikers in the world, and he can handle it, he can win the duels.

“There's a lot of players in this period together, like Raheem, him, Ederson, many players, it cannot be possible to do it without them.

“And Kyle is an important player for us, so important."
