While Aguero's availability as City's senior striker would provide an obvious benefit, Delph's return would give Guardiola another option in a defence affected by injury.Stand-in left-back Oleksander Zinchenko is already out and right-back Kyle Walker was substituted at half-time against Brighton with a hamstring problem. Left-back Benjamin Mendy made his first start in five months against the Seagulls following knee surgery, managing 79 minutes at Wembley Stadium.And Guardiola gave a modest assessment of the France international's performance."It was a long long time he didn’t play one single game," the City manager said."He is training just one or two weeks. We have a lot of problems in the defensive part, especially the full-backs. "So he started a bit like this, like that. But after he played confident and in the second half he played better."Mendy, meanwhile, feels he is fully recovered after a number of set-backs."When I came back [previously] sometimes the swelling stayed," Mendy said. "But now it's good, we can forget the past and think about the future. "I feel really fit and I want to give everything I can to help my team."I have missed a lot of games but my team-mates have been incredible so we need to trust and to believe we can go on and end up with a lot of trophies." Delph's return would take City full-back contingent up to three, with Brazilian Danilo able to play on either side.</blockquote>
