Striker Sergio Aguero was dropped to the bench by manager Pep Guardiola for Manchester City's game at Bournemouth in the Premier League today.
Guardiola named Gabriel Jesus as a lone striker at the Vitality Stadium, meaning Aguero had to make do with a place among the substitutes.
Left-back Benjamin Mendy made his first appearance for City following his £52 million move from Monaco, having previously been sidelined by a thigh problem.
Mendy's former Monaco teammate Bernardo Silva was awarded his first City start as Guardiola abandoned a back three and reverted to a 4-1-4-1 system.
City won 2-0 at Brighton and Hove Albion in their opening game, before drawing 1-1 at home to Everton last Monday.
