Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is full of praise for Joao Cancelo and Phil Foden.

Guardiola says he's pleased with the form of both players ahead of their clash with Brighton.

On Cancelo, he said: "He arrived last season, he was confused in the beginning because he expected something that we could not offer him but he's a nice guy with a great heart. He's a guy whose physicality is incredible, he could play again the day after a game and this is so important us to have players consistently fit.

"Last season he struggled a little bit with a new club and new ideas but now he has had more time and he is playing good. He was tired in the last game but hopefully tomorrow if he tries to play he can be better than the first 45 minutes against Birmingham but he was outstanding."

On Foden, Guardiola added: "He's playing like he always has - high standards in all departments. There are still margins to improve but from day one I am delighted about his behaviour. The quality will do the rest."
