Pep Guardiola giving instructions to Nico Gonzalez last night

Gonzalez started his first game since the 2-0 defeat at Tottenham, with Rodri having been preferred for the last four matches.

The Ballon d’Or winner was left out of the squad entirely for the Carabao Cup match, with Gonzalez given the chance to impress.

There was plenty that he did that Guardiola liked, but he was also keen for the midfielder to be more aware of how he could help the team.
