Pep press ahead tomorrow against Brighton
Pep Guardiola: "The two teams we have to play in the PL deserve our attention and credit. The finals are the main target. To play as best as possible we have to be completely focussed in these two games, they are really good teams..."
Pep Guardiola: "We have some players with niggles..."
Pep Guardiola: "Everyone, the influence for everyone. Five minutes can be as important as the rest of the minutes. Everyone has been involved for the fact that we are where we are..."
Pep Guardiola: "Pay attention to what I'm going to say, because I am pretty convinced I am right in what I am saying: I'm pretty sure Roberto De Zerbi is one of the most influential managers of the last 20 years..."
Pep Guardiola: "It's like a Michelin star restaurant, it's unique..."
Pep Guardiola: "Brentford play completely different to Brighton. We beat Brighton but they were better than us and we suffered. Brentford beat us thoroughly. At the end, you have info. Of course the data cannot give you as a person, mentality, the way they play..."
Pep Guardiola: "I prefer to be already champion, but maybe to be really committed vs United and Inter is to be in contention to win the #PL. They have the party, I don't know how they feel. They have to be ready to run a lot. The best way to prepare for the final is be ready..."
Pep Guardiola on OfficialBHAFC: "A master to passing to the man free, but when. Moving at the right time. The best team in the world for the tempo and the pass to the man free... With the right tempo, they are the best."
Pep Guardiola on where Erling Haaland has improved most: "What he has to do is be happy and play the best he can for the rest of the season and next season. He decides what he can do better, I'm not concerned about next season..."
Pep Guardiola on Sergio Busquets leaving Barcelona: "This type of club is never end of an era. Players arrive and leave. His impact as a holding midfielder in 15/20 years is massive. This club has the talent to reorganise and rebuild. One title is not enough..."
That is the end of the open section of Pep Guardiola's pre-Brighton press conference.
