Pep Guardiola on the January transfer window and Aymeric Laporte: "I took that decision, we couldn't invest in summer, why do you have to invest in December? I like my squad, we have problems with injuries, but if we have the chance like with Laporte - a clause..."

"We knew the potential of this player because he had played for many years in big stages against incredible strikers and we were convinced he could handle it immediately..."

"For a long time we could do it but that is not the position, that I think the market does not give us that opportunity and I don’t want to do that."

Pep Guardiola on the January transfer window: "I never say never, hopefully we will not have 25 injuries in the next two games, so maybe we have to buy, but maybe two or three players might want to leave in the transfer window..."

"In the summer we could not do for money, so we cannot invest more. That's why. You never spend, one player more than £75M, so we have a wage and could’t invest in summer so why can we do it three or four months later. It makes no sense!"

Pep Guardiola on the Joao Cancelo 'situation': "In the last month we’ve had the best - Kyle [Walker]. I give continuity to him. Joao is adapting and has a special quality - he can help us in many games. The rumours are rumours, they are what they are..."

"Until the agents call or we call, I don’t take any interest about that. This player we bought him for many years, not for six months, but what happens happens. I don’t know what will happen in a few weeks and in the summer we will discuss..."

"If a player wants to leave, it’s simple, the agent has to call to the club, arrive at an agreement, and he will leave. And if he doesn’t get an agreement he will stay here."
 
Pep Guardiola: “In the last decade we were the best team in terms of points, goals, everything - titles even. So congratulations Manchester City for that! When we analyse every single day here, it gives us perspective in what happened in the last 10 seasons...”

“Especially when the people from Abu Dhabi took over the club and bought good players, [brought] interesting managers and bigger stuff!”

Pep Guardiola on 2019: “We did incredibly well. People say ‘how was 2019?’ [and] people are saying a disaster. We won four titles - an incredible year. In the last part we struggled. We were fighting ‘huge elephants’ here in England, big clubs with big histories...”

“For the past decade we were part of them. That is amazing!”

Pep Guardiola on the next decade: “We are going to try and analyse not just the squad but as a club how we can do better.


All done with zero help,i'm proud of all everyone
I'll post my final post of the decade on a true note.

I'm absolutely chuffed with the decade. I'm absolutely chuffed with the club. I'm absolutely chuffed with Pep.

And I'm absolutely CONVINCED he's going to stick around. Probably not for too long, but longer than anyone outside this club's fans would like.

Here's to you Guardiola, for giving me the 3 and a half best years a fan could ask for.

So your a JCL then :)
 
Got it tactically spot on today. Predictably got a shit tonne of digs in the ore match thread for the lineup but we absolutely dominated them.

Even if we came away with less than three points that would have been down to individual errors.
 
Started a thread when Laporte got injured that 3 at the back with Cancelo and Mendy as WBs might work well, at least in some games. Think Pep should have tried it a bit earlier.
 
I wonder if this formation is something he has had in mind for some time, and was part of the reason why he tried Stones in the pivot.
