“Erling is never disappointed with his manager,” Guardiola told reporters post-game.

“As a manager I am more secure and more happy when Erling is on the pitch.

“I will keep him on the pitch all the time but at 0-3 the game was almost over and with this amount of games we have to take care of him. 

“He had a big knock last game against Newcastle so that’s why after 0-3 the fantastic goal with the pass from Rico and after that it’s better.”
