Substitute again
Gvardiol had one cross (zero accurate) and one clearance in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Ipswich Town. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 97th minute.
Analysis: Gvardiol was once again on the bench for league action, with the defender playing 29 minutes from the bench Saturday. This comes after he started in midweek action against PSG in UCL play, likely to continue seeing rotation this season due to City's depth and busy schedule. With Nico O'Reilly (back) also dealing with some discomfort, Gvardiol could be in for more time moving forward.
Nets late winner
Gvardiol scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (one accurate) in Sunday's 2-1 win against AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Gvardiol was handed the starting role at left-back Sunday despite some debate weather he or Nico O'Reilly would start there, with O'Reilly in the midfield instead. Gvardiol would lose the clean sheet early but still earned a tackle won, a clearance and two interceptions in the defense. However, his best moment came in stoppage time, as the defender scored to give City the lead, confirmed by VAR. This is already a good start for a defender who typically sees a bit more action in the attack, as he recorded two goals and two assists last campaign in only 18 appearances (16 starts).
