While the team may not be atop the league table right now, there have still been many positives for City to focus on, and Sagna has singled out Savinho as the one he's been most excited by so far in the campaign.
"I was looking forward to seeing Oscar Bobb this season, because he had an amazing pre-season, but he got injured," Sagna told Mega Dice. "I'm really looking forward to seeing him back in the squad and playing when he’s ready because he’s a player that can have a big impact at Man City.
"If I have to say a name of a player that has amazed me, it's Savinho. Savinho is amazing. He's a copy of [Riyad] Mahrez. The movement, the fact that he can take on players one-on-one is exciting."
