Manchester City has 3 right-backs in 4 games, and Husanov may play more in this position as an emergency plan
According to the Manchester Evening News, when discussing the issue of Manchester City's right-back, Husanov may appear more in this position as a contingency plan.
In 4 games of the new season, Guardiola has used 3 different players to play right back. In June this year, Liframento was seen as a potential solution to this position, but because Newcastle qualified for the new season of the Champions League, Manchester City's plan to sign players at a low price was shattered and had to turn to seek internal potential.
Lewis was once the first choice for Manchester City's right-back, but his defensive shortcomings are also obvious, and insufficient confrontation is also a problem. Last Friday, the player renewed his contract with the club for five years and emphasized in an official interview that he prefers to play in the midfield, and teammate Nunes may have the same idea.
So in the Manchester City derby, Guardiola tried a new solution again. Husanov's performance has shown everyone his potential at the right-back position, which may be a solution at least in the short term. In the long run, as a very fast central defender, he has become an option on the wing, especially when facing the same fast wing. Guardiola also expressed satisfaction with Husanov's performance in this game, and players may appear more in this position after that.
