Kevin De Bruyne insisted McAtee's performance could give Guardiola the 'confidence' to give the academy graduate more minutes.
Guardiola praised McAtee for grasping his chance and admitted that his treatment of the youngster has been ‘unfair’, while De Bruyne insisted that the academy graduate gives City something different.
Guardiola added: ‘I said to Txiki (Begiristain) that I know it's unfair because we asked (him) to stay and I didn't give him the minutes he deserved, but I always had the feeling he could play with us.
