Guardiola: Rodri is fine; Foden needs to be loved; schedule? Thursday + Sunday, don t mention it

Hupu September 19th Manchester City coach Guardiola attended the post-match press conference to defeat Napoli 2-0.

Talking about defeating Conte again "I'm glad to be able to fight this always difficult opponent. Staying calm is crucial. Doku is fast in a small space, he created his own chance and ended up scoring."

Haaland's 50 Champions League goals?

"We are lucky to have him with us. A great player like Lewandowski and Cristiano Ronaldo scored a lot of goals and he did it, which is incredible. If he maintains this average, he can really be the best scorer in Champions League history."

Do you see any improvements in him?

"Yes, it depends entirely on experience and mentality."

about Rodri.

"Rodri performed well, and he took the initiative to ask for replacement (end). Foden and Harland played side by side, which helped us a lot, just like the year we won the championship. We were very satisfied and he was very happy, which proved that he was a pure genius." What is the key to Foden's recovery?

"Don't put too much pressure on him. Everyone in life needs to be appreciated and loved. He needs to feel protected and supported, and then he will respond on the court."

Nico O'Reilly?

"He has shown his strength last year. He can play in three or four positions, although he had some restrictions when he first came out of the youth team. He has made great progress in one-on-one and ball possession."

The next two days?

"We will have a good walk tomorrow (laughs). We need to replenish our energy and prepare for Sunday's game."

Schedule?

"It's better not to say: we'll play tonight, and we have to play again on Sunday."

Finally, a British reporter asked Rodri?

"He was not in good shape yesterday, but he promised me that he would play without any problems."
