The defender making his return was unfazed about the threat of the Citizens as he put in a great display in their 5-2 victory over Pep Guardiola's side.

He made a total of 38 touches in the entire 90 minutes and also made 6 clearances, which was more than any player from either team on the pitch. 

He's been lauded by fans for his massive performance in Sunday's game.

A fan tweeted: "<>Tremendous performance “from 1 to 11” from <>#lcfc<> today. Many men of the match but personally like to praise Daniel Amartey. He’s been through hell with his ankle injury, but he’s “back” judged on that effort. Genuine question: Do we need to sign a new centre back?

Another added: "Daniel Amartey had a decent outing on his return to the pitch against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium today. He was simple, tidy and solid at the back."

A fan also tweeted: Never, ever sell Daniel Amartey. Such a great utility player. So reliable.."
