MANCHESTER (ENGLAND) (ITALPRESS) – “Of course it’s better when the team at the top of the table drops points. But after three draws, it’s better to focus on ourselves. It would be a huge mistake to think the situation is better just because a fantastic team like Liverpool drew a match at the Emirates. We need to think about ourselves.” Pep Guardiola breathed a sigh of relief after yesterday’s 0–0 draw between Arsenal and the Reds, but he knows it is now up to his Manchester City side to get back to winning ways.
“One of our incredible qualities in past years has always been finding a way to win matches, even when we were playing worse than in the last three games that we’ve drawn. We have to do better. It’s better to be six points behind than eight, but reality is reality. In any case, after 21 matches we are six points off the top, so everything is still open.”
Meanwhile, Semenyo has arrived from the transfer market and will already be available for the FA Cup match against Exeter. “He will have to adapt quickly because the group is exceptional, but I’m sure he’ll settle in rapidly. He has to understand that he’s not coming here for one, two or three matches, but for many years, so he has all the time in the world. I know he’s an exceptional person. Will we do anything else in the transfer market? I don’t know, I can’t answer that question,” Guardiola concluded.
