They then beat Fulham 4-3 in the Premier League followed by a 1-0 win away to Sheffield United.
Manager preview
“What could I say about Bielsa? I think he’s probably the person I admire the most in world football as a manager and as a person.
“I think he is the most authentic manager all the time in terms of how he conducts his teams, he is unique.
“No one can imitate him, it’s impossible. Especially his behaviour as a person off the pitch.
“I don’t see him every week but I have had the pleasure to spend time with him.
“My theory is the manager is not about the titles because I feel far away from his knowledge.
“My teams won more titles than him, but in terms of knowledge of the game, I am away from him.
“It is a good present, a good gift to have him in the Premier League. His teams are a joy to watch, how honest they are and they always try to produce good football for spectators. It’s good to have him here.”
Marcelo Bielsa:
“It’s one of the biggest games in the Premier League.
“We will try to play the same way we always do, we wouldn’t know how to do it any other way.
“I never find it very comfortable to talk about an opponent’s weaknesses.
“The season is very short and it’s very hard to make conclusions as to whether they are weaker than before.
“But to talk about an opponent’s weakness in public is never a comfortable thing.”
“Good players, and Aguero is a good player, are always helpful for a team.
“I would say the same thing about Jesus and the same thing about Raheem Sterling.
“I think that Sterling is a great attacker, playing out wide or through the middle, he’s a goal-scorer.
“So I don’t think it’s a problem that City won’t resolve.”
