Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says Jeremy Doku deserved his start for victory over Brighton.

Guardiola was delighted with the winger's performance for the 2-1 win.

He said, Jeremy can play on the right perfectly. Left he is not used to.

Years ago, it was left player on left and right on right side. Now it's difficult to find.

Jack (Grealish) is more controlled. He doesn't have the one-v-one speed.

Today I doubt a lot the line-up because the game would have more transitions. They are man to man and aggressive so we will lose more than usual to make more transition.

I thought Phil (Foden) and Jeremy with their pace could help us. I thought a lot that Mateo (Kovacic) and Matheus (Nunes) could help us but Bernardo (Silva) with the way we want to press is so important."
