An impressive City side held off a West Ham fightback to move above Chelsea and Manchester United at the top on goal difference.

“I am new here so I don’t know how it works”, the Spaniard added.

Bilic said: “I didn’t see it at all”. If we lose him, we lose him.

Raheem Sterling and Fernandinho scored in the opening 18 minutes for City, who carved West Ham open at will in a dominant first-half display that showed Guardiola’s influence is already rubbing off on his players.

“What have I done to him?”

But Michail Antonio got the Hammers back in the game with a header, and it became hard for City, who had to defend for most of the second half and try to score the third goal on the counter-attack.

“But of course we are so pleased, so pleased about his spirit”. I just think Pep will not be happy with the second half.

“After when he receives the ball, it is completely his talent. Man City bought this player because they believe”. “I wanted to start a new experience and I feel this is the right choice for me”, Zaza said. His quality is on another level but it depends on him.

“We did not start well and straight away they (City) had a couple of corners and then scored”, he said. “No doubt about that”.

“We created many chances so we deserved to win clearly with more goals. We need Ilkay and Sane and all the guys because the guys who play today can not play every three days”.

Sergio Agüero could be banned for the Manchester derby after he appeared to strike Winston Reid in the throat with such force that the West Ham United defender could not speak after the match.

“With so many players we are missing, you have to praise the team”, he said.
