Pep Guardiola praises Sterling after Newcastle win

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was all praise for Raheem Sterling following their win over Newcastle yesterday. Sterling opened the scoring for City yesterday in the 8th minute.

Guardiola said, “He made a fantastic goal and he fought a lot. Especially in the second half he played so clever. He moves the way we need him to move to help the team to be stable. The wingers are so important to make stability in our team and he did it quite well.”

Guardiola did not include Leroy Sane in his squad against Newcastle but said that he would select the team according to the players’ work-rate. He said, “He (Sterling) played 10 or 12 minutes, he tried. He was not precise but he tried. They [the players] know me. They convince me [and] I am satisfied the moment they run and do everything. The mistakes without the ball [and when] taking decisions – it is part of the process. So, it’s no problem.”

City play their next Premier League fixture against Fulham on Saturday.
