Haaland and Drogba up front? Semenyo key to Guardiola's bold new Man City blueprint | Sporting News United Kingdom Antoine Semenyo has scored five goals in eight matches for Manchester City as he undergoes a crash course in Pep Guardiola football.

"I haven't really been in a team that's ball-dominant before. It's being really patient, understanding when to slow down the game, when to speed up, being in the right positions, being an option. It's a lot."

Antoine Semenyo and City. Same but different.

Is Matheus Nunes City's most important player right now? A mad thing to have considered saying a few months ago, an undoubtedly sizzling take. But tell me I'm wrong...

"The message was just a message of truth and love and incluvsivity to be honest," said Guehi without expanding on the point further to explain specifically what he meant.

But he added: "I don't think the message was harmful in any way - that's all I can really say about that to be honest."

"I believe 100% in the words that I wrote, even what I've just said now - it's a message of truth and love, and I hope people can understand that my faith is my faith, and I'll stand by it for the rest of my life," he said.

If I'm being perfectly honest, Marc Guehi is a brilliant signing for City on a football basis. However, the explanation he gave for writing "I <3 Jesus" on the rainbow armband left a lot to be desired.
