People will say he let 3 past him but his defender gave him 2 penalty to deal with and he still stopped one (even thought its still got in in the end). I'd say he look like a very solid third choice keepers tbh. Happy for him.
Newcastle 3-4 Man City: Scott Carson was shown love by teammates at full-time
Scott Carson made his long awaited debut for Manchester City in their Premier League match against Newcastle on Friday evening.
The Englishman, 35, joined City on loan from Derby County in 2019.
Two years after joining, he was finally given the chance to play at St James' Park
Carson, making his first Premier League outing for 3645 days, was mobbed by his teammates at full-time.
Ederson showed Carson love, as did others including Phil Foden, Ruben Dias and John Stones.
Explaining the decision to start Carson, Guardiola said "Maybe people don't know it but he's a real leader for us.
"He says straight away what he believes, he has a lot of experience, he has been in incredible locker rooms with big teams.
"He is an incredible person and we are delighted - not just me but Eddy (Ederson) and Zack (Steffen) and the players that today he could play."
City conceded three goals for the first time since September, but Carson was not at fault for any of them - in fact he saved a Joe Willock penalty only for the ball to fall kindly for the Newcastle player to tap in.
