"We can't afford to lose games as there's so many good teams. It's perfect to turn things around against United. We need to all be on our best, get our asses going, get things going, because it's not been good enough so far. Losing's not cool. It's annoying you need to use it for something positive. As motivation to do better the next game, and I expect that we are."
"I know the results dictate all the positions of the teams and I have to make a good season for that. I will not stay here when I feel that the club needs a change, but right now I feel I want to do it more than ever after what happened last season and especially now in that moment. I want to be in front of all of the club, to make my shoulders bigger and bigger, to keep the weight of the situation."
Manchester City began the season with an opening-day win at Wolves but then lost consecutive matches to Tottenham and Brighton, leaving them behind Manchester United. Erling Haaland called the start not good enough and described the upcoming derby as a perfect opportunity to start turning things around, urging the squad to use frustration as motivation and to perform at their highest level. Pep Guardiola acknowledged the poor start, emphasized that results determine standing, and stated he will not remain if the club requires change, while expressing a desire to continue carrying responsibility and seeking further success.
