"He's the same guy," said the City boss. "He was involved before without (the) captain's armband, but now the players decide to pick him. "He's the same, but with more responsibility. "If we have a problem in the locker room he can solve it. I'm really pleased."
"I met just once in three or four pre-seasons ago against Yokohama," he said. "Ange was the manager. It was the second pre-season game and I said wow, there are things I like. "I said to the players I know you're not ready but we will face a good team in challenges, intense in buildup and use the keeper in the process. "We won, all respect to Yokohama but we had better players but I realised for the first time I met him and have followed him when he was at Celtic winning trophies and now in the short time he's been [at Spurs]. "Every team plays to the desire of the manager. "He's done in the past in Japan and of course in Glasgow with Celtic and now. I think he makes football a better place, people like Ange."
