Josko Gvardiol: "The UCL format is different [this year]; what I can tell you is me as a football player, I just don't want to drop points. But it's a bit different; two more games in the 'group stage', and we still have seven games to play, so we just need to go game by game and I think everything is going to be alright..."

Josko Gvardiol: "There are still seven UCL league phase games left, the competition is quite long, so it's just the first game. We will see. If we're going to perform like the way we did today [vs Inter], I think we shouldn't be worried about anything..."

Josko Gvardiol on Man City's fourth kit: "I love it! I love it! I like it! I like the colour, to be fair, and I'm telling you now that this is my favourite one!"

Pep Guardiola: “I love Italy but really enjoy being here. I love English football. It is fantastic. I really enjoy it. They leave you alone to get on with your job. That doesn’t happen anywhere else. Man City is a great club. I really feel good here. I am pleased to be here.”

Manuel Akanji: "That's always the goal; to stay fit, to be available for the team, to help them on the pitch.

"But in the end, we've got eight UCL group stage games, 21 points [left] to get, and hopefully we'll get them.

"In the PL as well we've got an important game coming up on the weekend, and then in the cup, so we've got a game coming up every three or four days.

"So we've got to really take care of our body and hope we stay healthy..." [via beINSPORTS_EN]

Pep Guardiola: “We are a good team, but they are good too. They do many, many good things in all the aspects; in high pressing, in defending deep, in transitions. It's a complete, absolutely complete team, that's why they've been our biggest PL rival in the last two seasons.”

Pep Guardiola on Arsenal: “Every season they're stronger. The depth of squad, adding more players, top quality. Every season they're even better and better.”

Pep Guardiola: “If I say something [good about Arsenal], they will say I am playing mind games or something like that. Always I have a high opinion about him [Mikel Arteta] and his team.”

BREAKING: Kevin De Bruyne could be available for Man City vs. Arsenal.

Pep: “He feels today a little bit better, but not yet. Days off and tomorrow is training and we will see. (Could be involved?) He could be.”
