Quotes
Pep Guardiola:
“No injuries from midweek. Kelechi was almost nothing so it was a scare but he’s fine. Everybody’s fit and ready - we trained with 30 players today.”
Slaven Bilic:
“Pep has new tactics which are a little bit different than last year’s and they’re not very common tactics, with the full-backs playing with the ball in areas that are not normal.
“We can live with that because it’s far away from the goal, but we have to stop them being free with time and space in front and in our box.”
