I see no reactions to the rumours linking us to Marco Verrati. Now I don't know where these tabloids sniff the stories of a possible bid from, but can you imagine a Kante-Verrati midfield in a 4-3-3? shocked shocked

We can dream, right? I hope this story can go from rumours to the truth. Not sure how this can happen or whether £40m will land Verrati (in this crazy world where Oscar is going for £52m) but mehn, if Conte can influence the transfer through Italian links, that's a journey down to next-level midfield.

I for one will give all the £52m from the Oscar fee to PSG.

'THE BALL IS IN THE AIR MORE
THAN ON THE GROUND' - PEP
ADMITS STRUGGLE TO ADAPT TO
PREMIER LEAGUE
Stefan Coerts
The ex-Barcelona coach has acknowledged he
is finding it hard to get his current charges
playing his way due to the direct approach
of their opponents
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola
admits the physical nature of the Premier
League has surprised him and he feels
Chelsea are the only other team trying to
build play from the back.
Guardiola made a name for himself at
Barcelona and Bayern Munich with his
possession-based style, which brought him a
host of trophies while cementing his
reputation as one of the world's premier
coaches.
Martial annoyed with Man United role
But the manager confessed that he has been
struggling to get City playing his way due
to the direct approach of many of their
opponents.
"I try to play in one way all my career and
here, for example with high pressing, when
they have the ball we go to pick them up, it
is not allowed, because it is not allowed.
Many times the ball is more in the air than
the grass, and I have to adapt," Guardiola
told Sky Sports.
"I was in Munich and spoke with Xabi
Alonso, and he said: 'You have to adapt, it's
the second ball, the second ball!' But really,
you have to adapt to the second ball, and
the third ball, and the fourth!
"I never before was focused on that,
because in Barcelona or in Spain, more or
less the players try to play for the culture.
"That's why they won World Cups, and they
won the Euros, won the Champions Leagues,
the Europa Leagues, all the time, all of the
years, Spanish teams are in the latter
stages, all of the teams.
"In Germany it was more physical, but not
like here. Here it is all the teams, except
maybe Chelsea because Antonio [Conte] is
playing really well and having them build
up, but the other teams are taller,
stronger, physical, and you have to adapt
and build from that."

GUARDIOLA DEFENDS HIS STYLE:
I'M NOT TRYING TO PLAY
BEAUTIFUL FOOTBALL, I'M
TRYING TO WIN!
The Manchester City coach has come under
pressure after defeats to Chelsea and
Leicester City but says he is as pragmatic
as anyone about the way he sets up his
teams

Pep Guardiola has issued a staunch defence
of his footballing philosophy on the back of
a run of form that has seen Manchester
City fall seven points behind Chelsea in the
Premier League.
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich
coach’s tactical preferences have come
under scrutiny in recent weeks following
defeats to the league-leading Blues and
Leicester City.
Pep admits struggle to adapt to Premier
League
It has been suggested that an insistence on
aggressive pressing and passing the ball out
from the back, as well as the use of a
three-man defence, has been too much for
City’s players to adapt to, but Guardiola
claims he is a pragmatist and sets his team
up to win, not play beautiful football.
In an interview with Thierry Henry for Sky
Sports , Guardiola explained that he refuses
to change his methods because they have
delivered trophies, not because he sees his
preferred brand of football as superior to
that of other coaches.
“The people say ‘you have to be more
pragmatic, more clinical’. More pragmatic
than me? I’m sorry. Like numbers -
pragmatic is numbers. When we’re talking
about pragmatic we’re not talking about
‘the way’ or something to discuss about
football - it’s numbers. And numbers, I am
good," he explained.
“We’re talking about numbers. People say,
‘Pep won in Barcelona, but it was boring’
or, ‘Pep won in the teams in Bayern, but it
was boring’. I understand completely, but
understand that numbers - goals conceded,
goals [scored] make titles and… sorry guys,
it was good.”
“People say we want to play our football,
our way," Guardiola added. “That doesn’t
mean my football idea is special or
different or better than the other ones. I’m
sorry guys, I’m sorry - I’m not talking
about my football, my idea and the other
coaches and managers [makes sweeping
motion], they are nothing, I am the
special… no, I’m not talking about that.
“It’s the way I believe. Like, Tony Pulis, I
appreciate a lot - he took care of me. Tony,
you are the best. He took care of me like
never a manager has taken care of me
before, so… he plays football he believes,
and it’s perfect. I am not judging about
that.
“[Man City] contacted me to make
something I believe. It’s simple like that.
I’m not here to make fantastic football for
the beauty, I am here to win games. I’m
here to make the fans happy when we win
the games, to be there fighting for the
titles.
“But the way you win titles is in that way.
It’s what I did in the past, in the second
team of Barcelona, in four years in
Barcelona, in three years in Germany and
now here.
Alexis: New deal up to Arsenal, not me
“I am not judging the other [coaches], what
they are going to do. I respect them a lot -
I am not talking about ‘they are not good’ -
never have I said this in my life. Never.
Maybe [my style is] completely different,
but that’s the game.
“When you’re playing chess, in the last
finals of the Chess World Cup, one plays in
one way and the other [another] one. That is
what is nice and I came here to prove in
that way we can [be successful].”

GUARDIOLA: PEOPLE ARE RIGHT -
I ONLY WON AT BARCA BECAUSE
I HAD AMAZING PLAYERS
The Manchester City coach says he fully
agrees with those suggesting his trophy
haul in Catalonia and Bayern Munich was a
product of the talent at his disposal
Pep Guardiola says he will readily admit
that his success at Barcelona and Bayern
Munich was a product of the “amazing”
players at his disposal.
Guardiola defends style: I want to win
The Catalan won six league titles in seven
seasons as a top-level manager in La Liga
and the Bundesliga, but his Manchester City
team has fallen seven points adrift of
current Premier League leaders Chelsea this
year.
And Guardiola insists that those suggesting
his trophy haul at his two previous clubs
was largely down to the calibre of players
he had to choose from are right.
“I will not have success? I will not have
success," he told Thierry Henry in an
interview for Sky Sports . “This happens to
all of the managers - all the managers are
sacked, all the managers win or lose, all the
managers in November lose in the Premier
League. All the managers in the world make
mistakes.
PLAY
“Do you think I am special or different? Of
course not. But we were lucky, they said -
we were lucky to have players like [Henry],
like [Lionel] Messi, like Philipp Lahm, like
Xabi Alonso, like [Robert] Lewandowski, and
that’s why I had success.
“When I won in Barcelona many times, I
said many times in the press conference,
‘We win because I have amazing players’.
Huge club, amazing players. And the people
say, ‘Ah, he’s humble. He is fake humble’.
Pep admits struggle to adapt to Premier
League
“Now [they are telling me], ‘He won because
he had amazing players’. Yeah, that’s true!
I said years ago, it is normal!”

So David Luiz have been playing with injury sef? I hope it doesn't get aggravated to the extent he will be sidelined for weeks/months.

He's important to us.

He should be rested in some home matches against smaller teams.
