 Teams win the Premier League when the team is growing every month, said Guardiola. 
|
In the way we played today, he is a master, said Guardiola. The tempo, winning the ball, accelerate, decelerate, the intuition [to know] where the space is, how to manage the situations and so many things.
|
We cannot compare ourselves, they [Arsenal] are unbelievable, Guardiola said. I think we are learning to play better against different shapes, man-marking or low blocks or deep that at the beginning we struggled a little bit to read exactly what we had to do.
|
Salah has been a nightmare for many years, Guardiola said. Nico had to be aggressive and made a step up; you have to prove against the best.
|
If I had to choose one rival for this personal milestone, they would be the best, Guardiola said. Liverpool, especially with Jurgen (Klopp), have been the biggest rival in this country.
|
If I were to choose one rival for this personal milestone, that I want to share with many people, they would be the best, Guardiola said.
|
I think we pushed Liverpool to be better and they pushed us to be better, for sure, said Guardiola.
|
We will see tomorrow but we will not take a risk, said Guardiola. We have the international break afterwards and you have to find the moment to feel strong and fit and sustain the actions in the game that are so demanding. We're still in November, the best part of the season is ahe...
|
It's difficult to find a real, real world class player to be incredibly humble and thinking about what is the best for the team, Guardiola said. I have the feeling that he always had an eye on what is best for the team.
|
|
We are six points behind Arsenal, who look unstoppable right now because they play fantastic, Guardiola said.
|
|
I remember when I was in Munich, always I heard the rumour here in England that it is more difficult and that everyone can beat everyone, Guardiola said.
|
|
I'm happy for him more because a striker needs goals and for his confidence it will be important, Guardiola said. Having him back is so nice.
|
|
The spirit in the second half was really good, Guardiola said. We adjusted.
|
|
I'm so sorry for my colleague Stale Solbakken from the national team of Norway but I'm not thinking about that, said Guardiola. Maybe at the end when we win the Premier League 10 points in front and 10 fixtures from the end he'll take a rest. Now he feels fit, he feels fine. There ...

We cannot forget last season he was one of the most important players, in terms of he played and played and played, Guardiola said. He's so young, physically he is outstanding, can play in two roles perfectly. He's incredible, coach-able, listens a lot, wants to improve and that will help...
|
|
Not all the time he has to play, like, make exceptional things, he has to play just football, Guardiola said. But he has something.
|
|
I don't think so for Villareal - or Aston Villa, Guardiola said. It's not long, but it's muscular and you have to be careful.
|
The club will decide what is best for John, we will see how he performs, Guardiola said. When John is fit, he is part of the group, the starting XI and the year of the treble [he] was unbelievable but since then he has not had the consistency in [number of] games.
|
Listen, I admire a lot the old generation who use the common sense much more than now, Guardiola said. This new generation, we rely a lot on wide angle (footage), the data and this kind of stuff.
