Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola heaped praise on Kevin de Bruyne after their 2-0 defeat of Leicester City.
De Bruyne made 14 recoveries in a stellar all-round performance during the 2-0 win over Leicester and the Catalan says that kind of work ethic is embedded within his team's DNA.
“This is one of our identities - one of the most talented players in the world plays like this," said Guardiola.
“We spoke about this from day one.
“There is no negotiation on this. You can play bad, find bad form - but in terms of running for your mates, pressing... you have to do it.
"You do it for your team-mate because in the next action he will do it for you.
“We can play good or bad but we cannot deny in five years we are together, the players run hard and fight every single game.
“That is something I am incredibly proud of."
