Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was delighted with their young players for victory over Bayern Munich in Japan.

James McAtee struck first, while Phil Foden set up a late winner for Aymeric Laporte.

Guardiola said: It's unbelievable - the guys who are in charge and the recruitment.

The new generation is coming and they told me it is really good, there are three or four players that are exceptional.

We sell a lot, normally with a buyback. To make 80m or 85m just from the Academy is unbelievable.

That shows how good the club is working. I am pretty sure that one or some of them maybe will be back here with us. [I'm] really pleased."

He added: We will play the Community Shield not being in our top, top form. This is normal. We rely on the mentality that we have and the personality that we have.

We have one week in Manchester to prepare that final and train better than we can here.

It's the same as previous seasons. I am happy to play it, that means we won the Premier League. It's nice. We lost last year, hopefully we can win it."
