Pep Guardiola spoke to the press after the Premier League victory against Swansea City, and Pep avoided any sort of excitement or satisfaction about the ten straight wins to start the season.

He continued, “We arrived many times with Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva and Ilkay Gundogan but it was awesome that we were in that situation so often but didn’t make the final pass, but then we got the penalty and the third goal so we were able to win”.
Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola has claimed he has been surprised by his team’s strong start to the season.
The Spaniard said: “Kevin is not going to play the next games and now we need to keep going and win the games without him”. De Bruyne, 25, has scored two goals this season and set-up countless others to earn huge praise from Guardiola.
“We’ve just got to keep humble, we’ve got to just keep working hard”. Always you can play better. His injury spells bad news for Manchester City fans and Fantasy football managers alike.
“I didn’t think about what might happen at the start of the season”, manager Guardiola told www.mancity.com, following a 3-1 success against Swansea.
“You can always create different things and that’s why the game is nice”.
With full-backs Bacary Sagna and Aleksandar Kolarov both given licence to push forward, gaps inevitably open up behind them and the presence of the more offensive-minded Ilkay Gundogan in central midfield alongside Fernandinho does leave City open to being caught out. “I try to learn from every manager I work with and he is a man I definitely learned a lot from”, Sterling said.
Unless there is an early recovery, the EFL Cup fourth round clash with Manchester United on October 26 is a potential return date or, if that comes too soon, the Premier League trip to West Brom the following weekend. “It is the first time we have been at 1-1 at half-time and we spoke of how we had to be like a team and in the second half we played really well”.

“For how he reacted, it looks muscular, but I’m not a doctor fortunately”. “When he first moved from Liverpool I spoke to him then and have spoken to him a couple of times since”.
