The Egyptian forward joined from Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday and was straight into Guardiola’s starting lineup for Saturday’s 3-1 Premier League victory over Chelsea.
He played 74 minutes in an advanced role before he was replaced by Kevin De Bruyne.
Speaking in his post-match press conference, Guardiola was asked to summarise what he had seen from his new No.7.
“It was not easy. [Reece] James was there man marking,” he began.
“When James is fit he is so strong and so fast. But he made incredible runs and movement.
“He [Marmoush] is a calm guy and he has pace, he can shoot, he’s intelligent at defending. I am really pleased with what I have seen so far.”
