What happened. Josko Gvardiol appears to be returning towards his best by helping Manchester City to an impressive start to the new campaign, after his previous season was disrupted by a serious injury. Deployed at left-back, he has been part of a defence that has conceded just twice in City's opening four Premier League games.

• City have won six straight in all competitions since a 3-0 Community Shield loss to Arsenal.
• Gvardiol missed five months last season after a broken leg.
• New captain Ruben Dias and Marc Guehi are forming a central-defensive partnership.
