Pep Guardiola #press_conference
Pep Guardiola: "I don't have an opinion on fans returning, I trust the government and scientists. If the decision has been made it's because they think it's what we have to do. I don't have anything else to say.."
Pep Guardiola: "The squad fitness? Everything is good.."
Pep Guardiola: "Sergio Aguero going to give us a decision [New contract]. He's still not in his best condition. His injury was long. He needs to be so sharp, the quality to score in the box we don't have doubts but he need a bit of time, training sessions.."
π Your opinion on scoring problems?
Pep Guadiola: "Important is the last games we played we created much more than the opponents. You can win the game or lose it but you are closest to winning if you have more than the opponents in the Champions League to have 20 shots is an achievement."
"One day we will break and put on the table what we deserve. We need to put players in the box.."

PEP on Sergio Aguero π¬ He didn't train.
He has some disturbance in knee, nothing serious, but he didnβt train.
PEP π¬ We go there to secure first place in the group stage.
The important thing is done, we are already qualified. But itβs important to maintain our rhythm. The game must be played in the best condition possible and we make a good game.
PEP π¬ Cancelo has made an incredible impact this season - with his commitment and focus. Still he has to work and concentrate for 90 mins, but he helped us a lot when Zinchenko and Ake were injured. He recovers after games immediately.
He is like a winger in the final third.
PEP on Porto π¬ It will be a tough physical game.
They have incredible team spirit and have outstanding physicality. It will be tough, we know it - itβs #UCL away.
Top teams in Portugal have to win every weekend, when you have that mentality, it makes them so dangerous.

#press_conference Pep and Zack #MCIMAR
Zack Steffen π¬ βI've learned a lot so far. It's been busy, it's just the details, how closely they focus on everything - shot stopping, playing with feet, your position your entire game - it's been a pleasure to be here it's been awesome.β
Zack Steffen π¬ βWalking out and hearing the song is going to be special for me and my family. I'm excited to play another game at the Etihad, and playing against Steve [Mandanda] will be special. He was one of my idols growing up.β
Zack Steffen π¬ βI feel like I've learned a lot from the coaches, Eddy and Scott. I still feel like there's a lot for me to learn. I feel like I've improved in a decent way since I came here. Coming here was tough at first but now I feel settled and I'm ready for more.β
Zack Steffen π¬ βThis is a good challenge for us. We need to be professional, get a shut-out and get as many points as we can and continue our good play and get more confidence going into the derby.β
Zack Steffen π¬ βHeβs always laughing [Ederson] but he's serious as well. The camaraderies that he, Scott, Xabi and Rich have created, the goalkeeping community they have created is awesome. It's very detailed but there's laughter there too. It's been a pleasure to be part of it.β
PEP π¬ βWe will decide tomorrow. Maybe he [Aguero] will be on the bench. Tomorrow we will see his reaction to his body, not just his knee. But what's important is in the last 4, 3 days he was part of the group and the niggles he had in recent past disappeared.β
PEP π¬ βEveryone has played a lot of minutes, so like I said before we will play to win. I put the best I can put out for a specific game. There isn't one team for one competition. Everyone is involved and can be part of the team.β
PEP π¬ βI answered this in the previous press conference - always the same. I said he [Fernandinho] is part of the team, he was awesome against Porto, he is struggling to play three games a week, so we have to handle the efforts because he isn't like four years ago.β
PEP π¬ βYeah, but it is what it is. The schedules are the schedules. Sometimes itβs good for second team, sometimes not. But four or five players will be in the squad tomorrow. But we will play the game to win the game. We have to respect Marseille and Olympiakos.β
PEP π¬ βAll season he's been top. since the first game against Wolves he played so good. Phil's young but he has a specific energy and quality. He has to improve final decision in 18 yard box but thatβs part of his age. His energy will be handled the best way through the years.β
PEP π¬ βYeah, itβs so good. In this moment I see Phil play upfront because of his dynamic sense of goal and he helps us with first pressure. When he is 24, 25 I think he'll be able to play more defensive positions. Now he can play both wingers, behind strikers and as a striker.β
PEP π¬ βHe [Mendy] doesn't get the best level yet but he has played quite well. When he can train regularly and isnβt stopped by injury, he can show us what he really is.β
PEP π¬ βLot of respect - he [Villas-Boas] has been at a lot of clubs and had incredible success at Porto - then in England and France. Unfortunately he could not get the results in the Champions League.β
PEP π¬ βTo start with zero points from two games is difficult but the quality is there with Payet and Thauvin. The French league's tough. It will be an interesting game. Important for them to try and qualify for Europa League but for us too.

PEP π¬ Itβs not a knock out game. Itβs three more points. Important for the quality of the opponent but there are a lot of fixtures to come and we'll try to win our games.
PEP π¬ Itβs much better being at Old Trafford and Etihad Stadium with the fans. Step by step we'll open stadiums in England, in Manchester not yet. But when the officials say we can make the next step, we'll do it and when it settles all round the world the fans will be back.
PEP π¬ We know it. Thatβs why we get a lot of salary to deal with these situations. I don't have to give him [Solskjaer] support because he is strong enough and he knows how to do this job. When we win we are genius, when we lose we should be sacked.
PEP π¬ Every one except two players, all the ones are fit. People are for this ridiculous rule meaning we cannot have more on the bench, so it's more difficult to maintain a good level. That's why they have to be ready every week because they have to be ready to play.
PEP π¬ There are a lot of games to play we are in the beginning of the season. But itβs important to win and beat a big rival. Now is time to focus on the Premier League.
PEP π¬ Yeah, there are another 14 teams as well. Itβs not Carabao Cup last season, or knockout FA Cup. itβs 38 games. We have played ten. Itβs important of course but there's more to go.

Pep Guardiola's Press Conference ahead of City's match against West Bromwich
PEP π¬ On behalf of all at Manchester City, our deep condolences to Gerard Houllier's family. He was an incredible lovely person when I met him at UEFA meetings or when we played Lyon, or when I met him as a player and manager.
Itβs sad news for all world football.
PEP π¬ I learned when I was in Germany how big, important and historical a team Gladbach are. I respect the beauty of their football.
All I can say is I want to arrive in the best possible condition when we play them.
We want to compete as best as possible and go through.
PEP π¬ Today Kun Aguero was training. The last two, three days he could not train.
Today he trained and we will decide tomorrow.
PEP π¬ Eric Garcia is still not fit, Oleksandr neither. The rest are ok.
John Stones is performing well and that's why he is playing.
There is a lot of games, everyone has to be ready. I tell them don't complain; you will get chance, you need to be ready.

PEP on Kun Aguero availability π¬ Heβs isolating. The rules, after nine or 10 days he will be back.
PEP on Phil Foden π¬ He's playing like he has always played, with high standards in all departments.
Still, big margins to improve, because it would be bad news if he couldn't improve at his age.
From day one until now we're happy and delighted, especially with his behaviour.
PEP on injuries π¬ Laporte and Nathan Ake are injured.
Eric Garcia, Adrian Bernabe and Cole Palmer are isolating.
The rest are OK.
PEP π¬ Brighton are a joy to watch. A joy to analyse.
I said to the players today, we have to be at a high standard to beat them. Forget the results we had in the past - they are better in all departments. They create more than they conceded.
PEP π¬ Bernardo Silva is so intelligent.
He can play everywhere, even holding midfielder. He understands the game perfectly. He understands each position he has to play.
I am incredibly delighted with the two goals because he is fighting to score.
PEP π¬ The only difference is we run less. We were running too much - to play football you have to run much less.
Without the ball you have to run but with the ball you have to stay more in position & let the ball run and not you - we've improved in these games in those terms.

PEP π¬ He ( Sergio Aguero) is not ready for tomorrow. He is still isolating.
PEP π¬ He (Laporte) is at the last step. He is not ready for tomorrow, but he is training with us. Yesterday was the first one, today was the second.
PEP π¬ The only concern is Aston Villa right now. We donβt know who will be available, right now, we will see tomorrow in the line up. The performance is the only concern. In this league you can win five games in a row and then lose three in a row.
PEP π¬ We expect the best (from Villa). I don't know the situation. I wish they are healthy and have recovered well. This is the most important thing. We expect the best. It depends on us. We can cause them problems.
PEP on Dias π¬ We knew the quality on the pitch. We knew the personality he had but, of course, we are impressed with the mentality, the physicality to play every three games. We're more than delighted with his behaviour and what he provides for the team.
PEP on whether Laporte will be fit for Saturday π¬Hopefully. That would be good news. We need him. We cannot play with just (John) Stones and Ruben (Dias). We need Nathan (Ake) and Eric (Garcia). We need Laporte.

π¨ PRESS CONFERENCE π¨
PEP π¬ Kyle had a big impact kick in his hips, but just a kick, so is not available tomorrow but we wish he is available for the next game. Kevin, the doctor had to review the scan this morning, and he will be out between four and six weeks.
PEP π¬ We have to move forward. I'm not saying that nobody doesnβt know about how his importance. Unfortunately for him and us, he'll be out for an important part of the season and we have to find a solution because everyone's struggling in this situation and we have to adapt.
PEP π¬ I donβt know. There are many reasons why one team is champion. It is so important when you have fit and healthy players, but it is impossible. It is impossible to be fit for 11 months playing every three days, at every club.
PEP π¬ We knew it. We have better medical treatment and better nutrition than ever. We do what we can to take care of the players but they are human beings. It is normal. We cannot ask something to be solved. It is impossible.
PEP π¬ The players don't want to get injured, but they're human. Why in the FA Cup can we use five subs but in the League not? It is a different competition. Is it a special one? Itβs not just because itβs Kevin. It is everyone for the past five seasons. It is too many games.
PEP π¬ Yeah, the rest are ready. Nathan is still not ready. Aymeric came back, Eric came back to training.
PEP π¬ What we wish right now is that Sergio feels better. He felt uncomfortable in the first three days after testing positive. He felt quite tired, with all the symptoms you get. Hopefully he can come back. Step by step in training. A long time we have missed our best striker.
PEP π¬ He is back. He struggled last season, maybe for lack of minutes I gave him or maybe because he was not like him. He has always been important. Bernardo Silva cannot play every single game. We have alternatives and the academy
PEP π¬ This is not going to happen with me. I know the League is the most important one and the UCL is the second most important one. Four finals in a row in the Carabao Cup is because every game is important. So, no chance (of prioritising). We donβt drop any competition.
PEP π¬ When we lose it is because the opponent is better or we made a bad performance. Cheltenham deserve my respect. Now I am going to play the team against Cheltenham, we are training exactly what we want to do to try and beat them.
