However, he was pretty poor in defense, only notching a single interception. The defender continues to be a regular contender in the starting XI for City this season, appearing in 16 of the club's 23 matches this season.

He continues to get the starting nod on the wing with teammate Jeremy Doku (leg) out and will hope to maintain that role going forward after being used very sparsely to start the season.
