“The requirements he first puts on himself, the standards he demands from everyone around, his thirst for victories, development, improvement. You look at him – he always wants to learn from the best. For me he is the best coach in the world, I have already said it. He had the pleasure of working with him and winning him.

Rebuilding in Man City? I do not know, this is a question to Pep. But what he has already done in this league is unprecedented. In my opinion, the level he set up in the Premier League is incredible. To maintain these standards for 10 years is something incredible. And he wants to continue because he believes that he can do it again. But despite this, our preparation for the game is aimed only at winning, it is for sure.

Can Edgeor, Saka and White play against City? If there is a chance, then after tomorrow, they did nothing yet – only a transition. There are a few points to decide and tomorrow we will find out if they will be in the composition. Tomorrow we will have more information about whether they are part of the team or whether they have a chance to get to it.

Saliba? Let’s see. He had an injury, did everything to be accessible in the past match, tried hard. So tomorrow we will decide who is the best option for the start, ” – quotes Michely Arts’ words The official site of the arsenal.
