manager view
Pep Guardiola: “This is a final. In finals there are lots of factors. Minimal details.
“Being strong in your head, how you overcome situations.
“Mentality - these games are about mentality, not tactics.
“It will be a good test to see if we are ready to play against Madrid.”
Mikel Arteta: “What I need now is energy to transmit to my players, belief and it’s the FA Cup - we have a lot of experience here and we have a history related to that. Let’s go for it.
“I want to focus on what we want to do. If I worry too much about them, it’s not the message that I want to send to the players.”
We’re Not Really Here
