Just want to say thank you to the players, backroom staff to give me that present. Proud to do it here in Manchester with my City. "Now rest and come back with the energy. "I think my period at Barcelona B is the foundation for many things. To realise myself that I was able to do it and learn a lot.

Pep Guardiola praised Jeremy Doku and thanked Manchester City for giving him the incredible present of a 3-0 victory over Liverpool in his 1,000th match as a manager. First-half goals from Erling Haaland and Nico Gonzalez and an outstanding 20-yard individual Doku effort after the break took City to within four points of Premier League leaders Arsenal. As half-time neared, Virgil van Dijk's header was ruled out.

I think we won't take a risk ahead of the international break. We have to find the moment he feels strong and fit to sustain the actions in the game properly. Still we are in November, and the best of the season is ahead of us and we need him.

Pep! I am absolutely delighted to welcome you to join the prestigious LMA Hall of Fame 1,000 Club. Your deep love and passion for the game has always been so evident and you should be very proud of the indelible impact you continue to have across the global game. Reaching 1,000 matches and achieving such longevity in football is a landmark that can never be underestimated and, to continue to deliver league, Champions League and domestic cup titles in three of Europe's most competitive leagues is outstanding.

As the new world dawns and revolution rumbles across the horizon, there will always be those who remain resistant, who cling defiantly to the old ways. For years Pep Guardiola was a revolutionary. Very few people in history have had such an influence on how football is played, but the passage of time is inevitable. Nobody can stand in the vanguard of development for ever: yesterday's rebel is today's reactionary.

Cole Palmer's emergence as one of Europe's best young players is the result of desire, drive and confidence, according to former Manchester City and England goalkeeper David James. Palmer's first taste of senior football came as an 18-year-old when he played in a fourth-round League Cup clash in September 2020, as he looked to make the transition from promising youngster at the Etihad to a regular first-teamer in one of the planet's most star-packed sides.

Manchester City are interested in signing Arda Guler from Real Madrid, according to Fichajes. The report has claimed that Man City manager Pep Guardiola is personally keen on a deal for Guler, who has emerged as one of the best players for Madrid this season. Guler has been one of Madrid's best and most important players under manager Xabi Alonso this season.

Long before he arrived at Man City, Guardiola famously came through the ranks at Camp Nou, winning the Champions League as both a player and manager with the Blaugrana in 15 years over two spells at the club. The 54-year-old has seldom looked to Barcelona for new signings but that might be about to change with the blockbuster addition of Alejandro Balde in January.

I feel at home at City. Even though it's not been long since I moved there. They wanted me a lot, they made me feel important, and now, they already consider me one of their own. You feel enchanted when you listen to him [Guardiola]. I thought it would be like that, but the reality is even better than I expected. I hope to stay in Manchester for as long as possible and have a truly unique experience.

And at this point, we have to acknowledge that Pep Guardiola is one of the principal reasons this kind of possession pornography exists in the first place: a serendipitous consequence of reinventing the game at exactly the moment we could start measuring the ways in which he was reinventing it, and exactly the moment we could beam it around the world in meme-sized fragments.

Huddersfield missed out on a League One play-off spot last season, finishing 10th and 14 points behind the top six. With Lee Grant now at the helm, the Terriers are targeting a stronger promotion push this time around. So far, Huddersfield have made a promising start - winning five, drawing one, and losing three of their opening nine matches to sit fifth in the table. However, their recent form has dipped, with only one win from the last four league games.
