Sagna full of praise for Man City fullback Mendy: He's focused now

Former Manchester City fullback Bacary Sagna has sung the praises of Benjamin Mendy.

While there have still been some minor setbacks, Sagna believes that Mendy is finally beginning to look like the player he was upon his arrival at the club and explained that his renewed focus is a big reason why.

"Well he's more focused now - you don't see him so much on social networks," said Sagna.

"He had a big injury which is very difficult to come back from, so everyone blamed it on not being focused.

"But after such a big injury, it takes at least one year to come back to your best level and he's now coming back at the right time.

"He's getting stronger and more confident and the way he moves is more fluid. He's getting better and better."
