Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says he made early substitutions in the champions' 3-1 win over Leicester in the Premier League on Saturday 'to avoid injuries'.
City stormed into a 3-0 lead against the Foxes inside 25 minutes at the Etihad, with Erling Haaland scoring twice after John Stones' opener, but Guardiola rang the changes in the second half.
