Guardiola: This is our position on the Mercato, and we are far from this matter
Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola appeared in a press conference to talk about tomorrow’s confrontation against West Ham in the twentieth round of the English Premier League.
The coach said: “Will we win?” The last one against Leicester City boosts your confidence? It was a match in which we did not play at our best level. We won, but matches are like this in football. It is good for the mood to get results. We are far from consistent with the results, but we have another chance to get a win against West Ham, which is what It will help us The future."
He added: "Tomorrow's lineup may be similar to Leicester City's lineup. Robin Diaz is improving, but he is not ready for tomorrow's match."
On the possibility of Rodri recovering before the end of the season: “His return before the end of the season would be good, but the goal is for him to recover well and be ready for next season. This is our goal.”
In response to whether Kevin De Bruyne needs to regain his consistent fitness Until he is offered a new contract: “He has had problems in the last year and a half like many players but when he is consistent and fit he is a really important player for us. A crucial player for us, but it is about how he performs for us until the end of the season, the club, and his age.” And many other things, so I think the club should think about it.”
And about signing new players in January: “I don’t know now. It's not easy and it won't be easy. We may or may not sign anyone. The club must be wise. To add players, in this situation we are in when there are so many players constantly injured, the club has to do that, but I don't know if it's possible to do that."
Regarding Savinho’s goal against Leicester City and scoring the first goal, he said: “This will help him. He is very young and this is his first season in England. I think he played well but given his young age there are many things he can improve.”
He concluded: “More minutes for McAtee? Yes. He made me think he should get more minutes, but he is young and there are a lot of games to play. I have great respect for how he behaves in the locker room.”
