Guardiola delighted with Josko: I don’t want to imagine what would be without a guardian. I’m a real lucky man
Guardiol is only the second season in the « citizen » jersey after coming from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2023 for a record 92 million euros, making it the most expensive defense player of all time.
In the first season he became an English champion with City, but in his second season, City entered the big crisis and the first turbulence after years of domination. Still, the Guardiol is an indispensable member of the team and a player without which Guardiola can no longer imagine the composition. And this shows this information.
Specifically, the Guardiol is a convincing number one per minute in the Manchester City locker room. This season he played 42 games club and spent 3523 minutes on the field!
He is only close to Erling Haaland with 3436 minutes, but the Norwegian injured himself in the FA Cup and will not be on the lawn between five to seven weeks, which means he will end the season with a much smaller « mileage » but a Croat.
More than 3000 minutes only played midfielder Bernardo Silva (3098 minutes), and right back Rico Lewis (2790 min) and goalkeeper Eerson (2700) are still in the Top 5.
City dropped out of the Champions League, but won the semi -finals of the FA Cup and is expected by nine more games in the Premier League, as well as the World Club Championship at the end of the season. So the Guardiol, assuming that it will not be injured, will play over 4000 minutes in the season.
