Pep Guardiola: “We have huge personalities in the dressing room and Rodri is one of them, but there are other qualities, and everyone has to make a step forward. Step forward to do more... We have to do more to replace this absence for a long, long time.”

Pep Guardiola: “When one guy is injured, we're so sad. But at the end, he [Rodri] knows we're there. Now he'll be a long time in Madrid with family, recover there with doctors and physios, and come back with our open arms and we will be more than welcoming to come back to us.”

Matchday in the premier league! 👊

Today's EA SPORTS Man of the Match is our goal scorer, Josko Gvardiol✨

Pep Guardiola on Josko Gvardiol: “He's really good in small spaces. Sometimes in bigger spaces he has more problems than small.”

Pep Guardiola: “We made a mistake, and after that [the penalty/equalizer], Newcastle were better. But after we took the game again and we had the chances to win.”
