In the third round of the League Cup, Manchester City eliminated Huddersfield, and Manchester City sent 8 youth training players in this game. In the 6th round of the Premier League, Manchester City had two youth training players starting.

Guardiola said about this topic: "When I was still in Barcelona, ​​we played against Manchester United for the first time in the Champions League final. That team had seven players from the club's youth training, which is the standard for top youth training. We also have a good sign at the moment, such as the League Cup match.

"Traford grew up at Manchester City, and now he is back, and Foden, Lewis and Nico Gonzalez who played in Burnley. Mukasa has great potential, but we will wait and see what the future will be like. Imagine those players who have to leave, they are actually top players but they cannot get the chance.

"Oh my goodness, we can now line up a starting lineup of these youth players. You can count the players who have been trained at Manchester City and are currently performing well in other clubs, and you will find that there are so many of them. Now we still have some players who are on loan, such as Allan, who performed well at Watford, who have the potential to help the team, which is why we need the youth system.

"Anyway, some of these top players we certainly can't stay, it's no secret. Because we need top players to win the triple or even four-time champion. At that moment, under that level, if these players have the ability to bring improvement, they will definitely stay with the team. ”
