Willy Caballero knows Manchester City are taking risks under Pep Guardiola as he comes to terms with usurping Joe Hart.
Manchester City goalkeeper Willy Caballero feels he and his team-mates will need time to adapt to Pep Guardiola's tactical style.
Caballero was a shock inclusion ahead of Joe Hart for Saturday's opening 2-1 Premier League win over Sunderland at the Etihad Stadium, boss Guardiola identifying the 34-year-old's extra time on the training field during pre-season as a factor in making him more suited to an approach that values building attacks from deep than the England international.
It was not a flawless display from Caballero, who put City in danger when he sprayed a first-half pass straight to Sunderland attacker Duncan Watmore but he grew into a game that was decided by Paddy McNair's 87th-minute own-goal after Jermain Defoe cancelled out Sergio Aguero's early penalty.
