Football quiz: How fast can you recall Pep Guardiola’s forgettable first Man City XI?

It’s been eight years since Pep Guardiola introduced himself to the Premier League with a scabby win over Sunderland. Can you recall his first XI?

Guardiola took charge of City in time for the 2016/17 season which ended with Chelsea winning the title.

Pep’s maiden Premier League match saw David Moyes’ Sunderland rock up at the Etihad and get desperately close to taking a point back to Wearside.

City needed a late own-goal from former Manchester United youngster Paddy McNair to seal a narrow victory over the Black Cats, who would end the season rock-bottom of the table.

How quickly can you recall the XI on Guardiola’s first team-sheet? Only one player is still at the club and the left winger remains one of the most forgettable players ever picked by Pep.
