Donnaruma is a great shot stopper whose strength doesn&#8217;t pass the ball from behind.<\/p>\n<p>Donnarumma made his City debut in the Manchester Derby and is competing for United <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">Premier League<\/span> On Sunday following his move from Paris Saint-Germain, Guardiola did not confirm whether Italian International would begin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m always trying to adapt to the quality of my players,&#8221; Guardiola said Friday. \u201cI don&#8217;t ask Gigi to do anything uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re talking with Ederson about the best players we&#8217;ve seen in distribution, either short or long.

He&#8217;s so huge,&#8221; Guardiola said with a smile. &#8220;He&#8217;s a big presence at a big stage.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What he did in the Champions League at Villa Park in Anfield last season proves how good a lot of games are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Guardiola said he first met Donnarumma on Wednesday, but on Thursday he didn&#8217;t watch the train.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know,&#8221; Guardiola said when asked if Donnaruma would come for James Trafford, who started City&#8217;s first three games in the Premier League, he was asked if it was a victory at Wolverhampton before consecutive defeats to Tottenham and Brighton.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/donnarumma-man-city-guardiola-4e7b3cb098918dc3a37df49563f7ff7d\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester, UK (AP) &#8211; Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is willing to adapt his team&#8217;s approach following the goalkeeper&#8217;s signature Gianluigi donnarumma And you wouldn&#8217;t expect the Italian to offer the same ball-playing ability as the late Adason Moraz.
