Pep Guardiola (Manchester City), after the victory against Arsenal: “We have our destiny in our hands”

Pep Guardiola, Manchester City coach, who beat Arsenal (4-1) on Wednesday night: “I congratulate all the players and the staff. We knew the qualities of our opponent. It was important to win against such a rival and we achieved a great performance. At home, with our audience, we feel good, comfortable. The most important thing today is that we have our destiny in our hands. The next three matches will dictate a lot of things.

“We are still two points behind Arsenal with two games less and I would like to have six more points but that is not the case”

Now we are still two points behind Arsenal with two games less and I would like to have six points more but that is not the case. I have decided to establish (Kyle) Walker because I find that in Munich, last Wednesday, in the Champions League, against (Kingsley) Coman, (Jamal) Musiala, we were in difficulty in the one against one. There, facing (Gabrielle) Martinelli, I thought Kyle was the right defender. I didn’t underestimate Arsenal for a single second, I know what a good team they are. But when we play like we did today, we have an incredibly competitive team. »
