Abdukodir Khusanov has won the hearts of the Manchester City fan base and are already breaking records in Etihad.
His price for the player of the month was well deserved and also a record for the monthly award of City of fans. Khusanov has held against Real Madrid, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea and Newcastle to start a strong life in Manchester, supported by what feels like the entire nation of Uzbekistan at home.
Similarly, when Riad Mahrez was supported by thousands of Algerian supporters in public votes, Khusanov seems to have the same thrust from his home country. Even without this support, he would probably have won the award and will play a key role in the last games of the season.

Nathan Ake joined Manu Akanji and John Stones on the injury table to leave Ruben Dias as the only senior citizen’s defender. Khusanov was suddenly created number two.
And with doubts about the long-term fitness of stones, Akanji and Ake after their respective injuries, Khusanov was also able to complete a starting place of the World Cup.
“Maybe you are ready for the World Cup or maybe the last one or two Premier League games. But when we talk about eight or 10 weeks, it is a lot of time,” said Guardiola on Friday.
“Khusanov’s impact was very good from the start and vitor [Reis] I also played very well against Plymouth. Now some central defenders come from the academy to train with us because the three central defenders were missing almost until the end of the season. “
Guardiola spent a season with rewriting his defensive hierarchy with setback after the setback. If he literally rewritten his list of Fit defender, his office container like the cartoon cliché of a writer could look like ideas.
The slides and Khusanov will be the pairing of Center-Back pairing, which is assumed, which means that Josko Gvardiol is continued in the left-wing. The right -back will be between Rico Lewis and Matheus Nunes without the opportunity to support central defenders.
Lewis was supposed to be ahead of the midfielder Nunes after having beaten and locked his position so well in the summer at the beginning of the season. When the injuries were able and formed, Lewis suffered from a lack of calm and has not had the same player for several months.
A number of free intermediate woek, simpler games and a winning place from the World Cup could be the production of Lewis to end the season when he started.
On the left side, when Lewis was needed on the right side, Nico O’Reilly could be led to a more outstanding role after being withdrawn from the attacking midfield to the defensive midfield and now full -back. Guardiola kept him in Manchester this week instead of publishing him for the U19 in the UEFA Youth League, which strengthened his status as the first team option.
As Lewis, O’Reilly and Khusanov will respond to their chances in the coming weeks, the first choice will offer them at a Club World Champion Square before their injured colleagues return.
Guardiola’s central defenders can be written off at Nottingham Forest this weekend.
