The trainer of the Manchester City, Pep Guardiola, has answered in the last hours, in press conference, to the praises that is receiving of part of journalists, trainers and fans of all the world by the game that is deploying the Manchester City in this start of season 2017-18, and that is costing him to harvest a spectacular series of results.

To Guardiola have asked him if the Manchester City is in the actuality the best team of Europe, by results and game, and has answered the following: "Probably for a team like the Manchester City, that does not have the history that has, is a big success that say that we are the best team of Europe. This obviously does not mean at all. They have arrived us to say that we are the favourites to win the Champions".

"We have done the first step, already are classified for eighth of Champions"

"In this, there is a point in that you think that they are a bit crazy, but on the other hand is well, means that something have done well. The people is used to to say like favourites to the Barça, Madrid, Bayern of Munich or Juventus, but that plant to the Manchester City with the history that have in Europe, is a big honour. That it does not carry us to any place if we think that it already is fact, but the praises are welcome and am very grateful", has manifested.

The Manchester City confronts in this fifth day of phase of groups to the Feyenoord, although it already is classified for the eighth of Champions League when having harvested four victories and have 12 points. "We have done the first step, already are classified. In eighth of final never know the one who can touch you, but think that is better to have the party of turn home", has signalled Pep.

And it has remarked the difficult that is for him leave out of the alignment title to Agüero or Gabriel Jesus. "For me it is very hard to leave to Gabriel or Agüero was. Because the two, with different qualities, deserve to play. It is one of the hardest decisions that touch me take".

John Stones, between 4 and 6 weeks of drop

On the other hand, John Stones will be between four and six weeks ofdrop , and this will be a hándicap added for the Manchester City. "Now we have to Kompany, Otamendi and Mangala of available head offices. I think that Danilo, Walker and Fernandinho can play of central if we require it. No by a long period, but yes to solve it some day", has concluded the one of Santpedor.
