"Blue Moon" Manchester City will go to Goodison Park to challenge "Toffees" Everton in the focus game of the 33rd round of the 2024/25 Premier League. Manchester City midfielder Nico said that coach Guardiola would remind him where he must improve in every training session, and said that the coach helped him look at football from a different perspective.

The 23-year-old Nico joined Manchester City in February this year and signed a 4.5-year contract. Currently, Nico has played 11 times for Manchester City in various competitions and scored his first goal in the Champions League against Real Madrid.

With goals from De Bruyne, Marmus, Kovacic, McCarty and Nico O'Reilly, Manchester City beat Crystal Palace 5-2 in the last round of the Premier League. Manchester City is currently ranked fifth in the Premier League standings with 55 points and needs more points to consolidate a Champions League qualification.

When talking about coach Guardiola, Manchester City midfielder Nico said, "It feels very good. I have learned a lot in the past few months. I feel that I am constantly improving and starting to look at football from a completely different perspective. The coach reminds me of some details before training every day, which is really important. If the coach wants the player to improve in a certain aspect, he will mention it to you before each training session, so that the players can concentrate on learning and improve in a targeted manner."

"I think that's why you see so many players improve so quickly in a short period of time, because they focus on one specific aspect. I think the biggest improvement I've made over the last few months has been being calmer when I play, so I can make better decisions."

Nico also shared, "Now I feel completely part of the team. Everyone is very friendly. There are young players and experienced senior players in the team, but the relationship between them is very close. Before training, we will play some games in the locker room. I am very happy and enjoy my time here."

"Honestly, it was an easy decision to join Manchester City. When they called me, I didn't have to think about it. It was just a question of when could I go? And when they asked me to go, I didn't even have to think about it.
