Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City face the best free-kick taker in the world in James Ward-Prowse this weekend. Guardiola said: “He’s the best taker, right now, worldwide. “But he’s so good at it that maybe you miss his quality as a football player, and the football player is exceptional as well. “He is a guy who adapts in midfield positions, a team player who has great quality with or without the ball, and in understanding the game. The leaders have won their last 12 Premier League matches and have an 11-point lead at the top but Guardiola is taking nothing for granted against a team that have caused him problems before.
