When he decided to leave FC Barcelona, Spanish striker Nolito believed that he was good enough to be a starter in every single match for any club he represents. In Celta de Vigo, a modest club, he obviously became their best player in time. But then he decided to take a step forward and upgrade his challenges, now playing at City he wants more protagonism but he isn't finding it because the Citizens is a club filled with super stars.
After the match against Celtic where he started, Nolito sent Guardiola a clear message: "After more than a week without playing, I'm very happy to have started. Although there wasn't anything at stake in this game, it was still a Champions League game and everyone likes to play in this competition. I'm honestly very happy. I know that at City it's difficult to play when you have great players.
"The coach is rotating the players and sometimes you play and others you don't. From a selfish standpoint, of course I would like to play in every game. But in the end, all the Premier League and Champions League matches are demanding and the coach is doing well to rotate the squad."
