Pep Guardiola sends 'we want more' message to Man City star Oscar Bobb despite impressive display in Community Shield victory over Man Utd

Manchester City needed to come from behind to beat city rivals Manchester United on penalties at Wembley, and it was Bobb who was key to getting the Citizens back level in the final minute of the game.

After Alejandro Garnacho put United ahead with eight minutes left, Bobb collected the ball in the 89th minute and clipped a cross towards Silva who headed level. It was one of many occasions that the 21-year-old looked threatening for Guardiola's side, with the Norwegian enjoying an impressive pre-season in the absence of various big names.

Despite his stellar performance, Guardiola demanded more from his promising youngster. He said: "We want more. Sometimes he had the chance to take the ball and go and he was a little bit passive. He has something unique; be stopped then go, first one or two steps, right or left are unbelievable. The goal, how he turns and make the cross, huge quality. He has incredible values and work ethic. He has the ability to do it and he can do it more regularly."

As City players returned to pre-season at staggered stages, Bobb has been with the squad since the start of the programme and has starred throughout. He will likely have a more influential role than last season, where he played 14 league games, as Guardiola starts to integrate another potential superstar into his already packed squad.
