00:00In terms of City as well, obviously Vinnie mentioned about the run of form they're on,
00:04do you think that makes your job easier or harder for this particular fixture?
00:09No, I don't think anyone in the last eight or nine years,
00:13or maybe even longer, would have said that City at home or away.
00:17The word easy never comes up to my mind if I think about City!
00:21Easier.
00:23Oh, OK. Still, the easy inside, easier.
00:28No, not at all, and I know everybody's looking at their results and I've seen them as well,
00:35but if you face them, and that's what we do, you analyse it,
00:40and then I've seen, for example, against Brighton they were 1-0 up,
00:43could have scored 2-0 or 3-0, didn't, and then got beaten 2-1.
00:47Against Tottenham they could have been, after 20 minutes, 2 or 3 goals up, weren't.
00:53And against Feyenoord that has not happened many times.
00:58They were 3-0 up, completely dominated the game,
01:01and then all of a sudden in the end it was 3-3.
01:03So they are still a very, very good team,
01:07and one of the reasons why I think Pep Guardiola is the best manager in the world,
01:12or one of the best managers in the world, I think the best though,
01:15is that he always comes up with solutions for his problems.
01:20And his problem now might be that Rodri is out,
01:24but we all know, at least I think, that he will come up with a problem
01:29that the run of form will go again, hopefully after Sunday.
