October 7th News Not long ago, Manchester City teenager O'Reilly was interviewed and talked about his debut under Guardiola and his change from a No. 10 player to a left-back.
How was your mother at that time? Did she scream? Have you cried? How did she react?
"Well, she was actually very shocked, a little speechless. But yes, she was really excited."
You were originally a midfielder, but now you are changing to the left-back. What do you think of the change in this position?
"Yes, I thought it was difficult at first because I had never played that position before. But I was training and playing that position every day, so it became easier later. I received a lot of good suggestions, and I could feel that everyone liked me playing this position. Although it was a bit different, I enjoyed it."
What are the suggestions you received?
"Uh, it's more tactical suggestions, such as asking me to practice defense more. Because I feel that I am learning every day, constantly improving in this position, and enjoying more and more."
What did Guardiola say to you playing in this position?
"Well, he just said he wished I was a little more aggressive, and obviously he knew what I could do when I was in possession. I grew up from Manchester City's youth training system, so I'm really glad he trusted me."
