Pep Guardiola reaction 📺

On closing the gap to Arsenal 👇

“We are going to play against a team that in 49 games lost three games, in Champions League didn't lose once.

“In the Carabao Cup final City were complete underdogs - there is not one person in this country that would bet £1 that we would be much better. Maybe now it's a bit different.

“The respect I have for Arsenal, what they have done the last few years. I know the manger, the players, the quality, how they compete in every circumstance, that's the biggest job we have.

"They have been the best team in this country, in Europe, so far. Beating Arsenal once is so difficult, imagine beating them twice in a few weeks. We have to rest.

"I would like to say to my fans - respect Arsenal a lot, they are an extraordinary team. Come to join us from minute one because the players will do the maximum.”

Rayan Cherki reaction 📺

On his stunning pass for Marc Guéhi's goal 👇

“When I gave the pass for him, I didn’t know if he will score.

“But I’m very happy for him and the team.

“Now we can go and play against Arsenal, it’s a big game for us.

“It was not about my pass, it’s him when he controlled the ball, he touched the ball very nice. I’m very happy for him.”

On his style 👇

“I don’t feel pressure.

“I just want to play with my teammates, give pleasure, give good passes for him, Erling and all the players because we need goals.

“We need to not accept any goals too and today Marc did a big job for us. We are very happy.”

Micah Richards 👇

“It's on. They have got the win. Now next week is humungous. I cannot wait!

“The fans believe and they have not stopped believing, the away fans are brilliant.

“I'm not saying they are going to go and win it but they have given themselves a chance and that's all they can do.”
