Nico was handed a start, but was forced off midway through the first-half due to injury.
The midfielder is said to have suffered a back strain, though also found himself subject of some heavy attention from Orient players in the early exchanges.
City manager Pep Guardiola said afterwards: "Welcome to the Premier League and the referees. Maybe he knew about the referees because I understand it's not easy. It's not easy to do something when you play against teams like in League One."
