Packed fixture schedule no issue for 'incredible' Ruben Dias, says Man City boss Guardiola

 The Spanish head coach has been impressed with the defender's ability to recover "immediately" after matches

Pep Guardiola says this season's packed fixture schedule is no issue for Manchester City star Ruben Dias, who he has described as an "incredible player".

Dias has been a mainstay in Guardiola's starting XI since joining City from Benfica for £64 million ($87m) at the end of September.

The 23-year-old has helped transform the Blues into the best defensive side in the Premier League while forging a formidable partnership with John Stones.
