PEP GUARDIOLA HAILS MAN CITY TALENT AS FUTURE WORLD BEATER
Pep Guardiola claims converted midfielder Matheus Nunes can become "one of the best full-backs in the world" for Man City. The Portuguese star has excelled at right-back, impressing his manager.

Following a run of better performances, Pep Guardiola has projected that Matheus Nunes might emerge as one of the world's best full-backs.
After failing to contribute in midfield for most of his two and a half seasons with Manchester City, the Portugal international was moved to defence.
Although Nunes was used in Pep Guardiola's back four the previous season, City paid £53 million to acquire him from Wolves as a central midfielder.
The 27-year-old played as a winger for a 2-0 loss at Anfield two weeks prior, and he also appeared as left back in a late loss to Manchester United in December.
Guardiola started Nunes at right back during a victory over Brentford in January after Kyle Walker left for AC Milan, and he has essentially played there ever since.
With Abdukodir Khusanov, John Stones, and Rico Lewis also vying for the position, the City manager thinks he can thrive there for the rest of his career.
According to Pep Guardiola, Matheus Nunes has the potential to become one of the best full-backs in the world.
Guardiola started Nunes at right back during a victory over Brentford in January when Kyle Walker left for AC Milan, and he has essentially played there ever since.
Matheus has the potential to be a fantastic right-back, according to Guardiola. Because of his amazing physicality going back, he is a holding midfielder. He has the potential to be among the best if he is dedicated.
We discussed that a lot, but now it is his question. He has unique qualities to play on the sides, so it is simply a matter of altering your attitude and feeling that. He has played fantastically in the last two or three games.
After defeating Villarreal 2-0 in midweek, City is on a nine-game winning streak and will visit Aston Villa on Sunday, where they have not triumphed since 2021.
"We have good momentum, but we lack the consistency for ninety minutes," Guardiola continued. We are beginning to comprehend our opponents and our goals, particularly when it comes to attacking more fluidly and without the ball.
"We will become stable because our body language and mindset are in the proper place." We play well, but we need to improve throughout the course of the ninety-five minutes.
DISCIPLINARY BLOW: MADRID PLAYER SUSPENDED POST EL CLáSICO TUSSLE
Real Madrid's backup keeper Andriy Lunin has been handed a one-game suspension by the RFEF for his aggressive conduct on the bench during the heated final moments of El Clásico. Real Madrid's appeal was rejected.

Los Blancos' goalie Andriy Lunin has been suspended for one game by the RFEF Disciplinary Committee for his involvement in the sideline dramas during the El Clásico's final moments. Although the cameras did not catch it, referee Soto Grado did record that he had sent the Ukrainian off.
According to Mundo Deportivo, the RFEF responded as follows when asked why Lunin received a red card.
The reason for Lunin, Andrii's expulsion in the 90th minute was that he had to be restrained by his teammates after he walked aggressively from his bench to the blonde bench.
The disciplinary committee of the RFEF
"When considered significant, those whose behaviour violates sporting order will be suspended for four to ten games or fined between 602 and 3,006 euros."
Because of Lunin's actions, which constituted a minor violation of the sporting order, he was suspended for one game. The ruling had been challenged by Real Madrid. However, the RFEF stayed steadfast, defending the referee's ruling and the evidence in the match report and on film.
Now, the backup goalie will not play against Valencia this weekend, where he is probably going to be benched. Fran Gonzalez and Sunico, both from the youth team, might be called up as the matchday squad's third choice, with Sergio Mestre serving as a backup.
No Barcelona players or any other Real Madrid players were slapped with bans following the two flash moments in the closing stages of the game. When Vinicius Jr. and Lamie Yamal argued, even players who were not on the team were spotted shoving on the side of the field. The RFEF, however, determined that nothing that came to pass would justify further prohibitions.

According to Bukayo Saka, it is feasible for Arsenal and England to win both games this season. The season has started well for the Gunners under Mikel Arteta's leadership.
Arsenal leads the Premier League standings by four points at the moment and is starting to look like a title contender. Manchester City is only one point ahead of defending champions Liverpool, who are seven points behind.
Saka, however, is not only interested in winning at his club; he also hopes to succeed internationally. Manager Thomas Tuchel has stated that winning the trophy is his ambition for England, who have qualified for the World Cup in the USA next year.
Saka is optimistic about his club's and his nation's chances of winning. "Yeah, that is my prayer," he remarked in an interview with Sky Sports. It is possible, of course.
