Semenyo has been unbelievable for Man City – Guardiola

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has discussed the impact already shown by Ghana striker Antoine Semenyo since he signed for the Premier League giants.

Semenyo left Bournemouth to sign for City, and his performance in four matches so far has left coach Guardiola speaking good about him.

Against Wolves on Saturday, Egypt international Omar Marmoush opened the scoring after finishing off a cross from Matheus Nunes.

Semenyo came with incredible energy

Semenyo grabbed his third goal in four City appearances before the interval for a 2-0 lead. Speaking after the game, Gurdiola hailed the performance of the Black Star saying it illustrates how important he will be to City looking to the rest of the season and beyond.

“Semenyo made an incredible impact at Bournemouth,” Guardiola told Man City website after the Wolves Premier League win. “Antoine came with incredible energy and strikers are about numbers.

“Since he arrived he has been unbelievable. [It was an] Incredible goal.

“It looks easy but the control is perfect to pass the ball to the net. He made another chance with a pass from Marc and he hit the crossbar.”

The win enabled City to cut Arsenal’s lead at the top to seven points, awaiting Sunday’s clash between the Gunners against Manchester United.
