"Manchester City" club's head coach Pep Guardiola stated ahead of the upcoming match against "Wolves" that he somewhat regrets not giving more playing time to young players Nico O'Reilly and James McAtee earlier:

"Now I am analyzing why N. O'Reilly didn't play in November, December, January, and February... Also J. McAtee."

"I should have done it. At those moments I thought they might not be ready yet, and now look what has happened. They are ready and are therefore playing a lot."

20-year-old Nico O'Reilly has scored 5 goals in 16 matches this season, while 22-year-old J. McAtee has scored 7 goals in 25 matches.
