Pep Guardiola has discovered another Man City starter for Manchester derby

Manchester City began a testing week with a good three points at home to Brighton and Hove Albion which stopped the rot in the Premier League.

Jeremy Doku tormented the Brighton back line and poor James Milner had to be subbed off at half time due to the youngster's pace causing so many issues. After the game, Pep Guardiola explained the decision to choose the 21-year-old against the Seagulls was a calculated risk which paid off.READ MORE: Doku and Grealish show up City battle

"Review the West Ham game and today. After West Ham he didn't play one or two games, he's a player we have a little bit of doubts about sustaining games every three days. He's not used to it but he's an exceptional winger, so smart. He's intuitive to get the ball. The manager added: "I guessed a game with more transitions. Because both teams are man-to-man, more aggressive. You lose the ball more than usual. That provokes the transitions. I thought Phil and Jeremy with his pace could help."
