Guardiola: Kalvin has learnt his lesson!

KALVIN Phillips will get the chance to make a point as City's attention turns to the domestic cups in the coming week.

Pep Guardiola criticised the player's fitness, saying the England midfielder was overweight and not in good enough condition to train after his return from the World Cup last month.

The manager's complaint compounded Phillips' frustrating start at City following his summer move from Leeds.

Prior to the World Cup, the 27-year-old had made just four substitute appearances, totalling 54 minutes, for the Premier League champions.

He returned to action with a late run-out from the bench in Thursday's Premier League victory at Chelsea and he could now feature again as the sides meet in the FA Cup third round at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow.
