It's going to be difficult, of course, but I'm not worried about that now." Guardiola was glowing in praise for his side's dominant performance, and the debut of Gabriel Jesus was another positive for City to hold on to.The Brazil striker emerged from the bench in the 82nd minute and almost provided Sane with a tap-in before seeing a goal of his own chalked off for offside. Guardiola warned that Jesus will not be the answer to City's attacking struggles and also moved attention to the performance of Sane, who scored just his second goal for the club."Over the season we have to score goals and we have to create the chances to score goals. We tried to create and when we created, we didn't score and when that happens, it's impossible to win the game."The crowd is always excited for the new players.  "I'm so happy for the performance of Leroy. He arrived as a young player, 19 or 20 years old, and everybody expects [performances]."It's not easy to come here and to play. He arrived injured, but for the last 10 days in the training sessions that guy looks different. "I encourage him to keep going because he has special qualities for us and he made a good performance."To be able to look at him a little bit more, we will be more dangerous, I'm so happy for him."</blockquote>
