Pep Guardiola admitted he should have started Rayan Cherki instead of Antoine Semenyo after Manchester City drew 1-1 at West Ham to give up ground in the title race.
City struggled for cohesion in the first half, as Semenyo and Omar Marmoush started alongside Erling Haaland in attack. Later Cherki came off the bench and made a major impact on the game, along with fellow substitutes Phil Foden, Jeremy Doku and Tijjani Reijnders.
