Donna keeps doing it his way, not Ed's

GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA was at Manchester City's training ground on Wednesday when he stopped by Pep Guardiola's office for a chat.
It was a proper introduction after ‘Gigi’ completed the formalities of his move from Paris Saint-Germain while with Italy.
By moving from Ederson - a player Guardiola described yesterday as “one of the best players I've ever seen in the distribution" - to Donnarumma, there is the expectation of a shift in style to follow.
Any difficulties were clearly ironed out in that first meeting - when Donnarumma trained with his teammates for the first time on Thursday, Guardiola stayed in his office.
He had already heard enough and his coaches were soon telling them they had seen enough.
The City boss claims he is yet to make up his mind on who to start in goal against Manchester United tomorrow, but it would come as a surprise if Donnarumma, 26, wasn’t thrown straight in for his debut.
