Leroy Sane has done exceptionally well this season and is now becoming a regular starter in Guardiola's XI after some initial difficulties. If not for Riyad Mahrez, Sane would've gotten a lot more game time but owing to his reduction in minutes, his goal and assist to minutes ratio is seriously impressive. Sane has scored 7 Goals and assisted another 7 having played only 1168 minutes - this means that Sane contributes with an assist or a goal every 83 minutes!

That's a stat that Guardiola will undoubtedly be aware of. The fact that Manchester City will have to be at their absolute best to maintain the title race with Liverpool should mean more chances to Sane. The German International certainly has a big future, and under Pep Guardiola he is destined to become world class. The fuzzy-haired 22-Year-Old is certainly someone every football fan in the world should look out for.
