Pep Guardiola has said Manchester City need Phil Foden to get back to his best if they are going to have a successful season.

Ruben Amorim delivered a defiant response to suggestions he should change his 3-4-3 system at Manchester United following a 3-0 defeat at Manchester City by saying the club must "change the man" if they lose faith in his philosophy.

Pep Guardiola hopes Phil Foden can return to his best after his goal in Manchester City's derby win.

Ruben Amorim defends his decision to stick with his formation after Manchester United are beaten 3-0 by Manchester City.

Steve Nicol is stunned that Ruben Amorim hasn't tried a change of system to improve Manchester United's results.
