Guardiola on Kovacic, Fulham and Man Utd v Arsenal
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game at Fulham (12:30 BST kick-off)
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Guardiola confirmed there are no fresh injury concerns and said "the environment" at the club is why they are not struggling with injuries like other teams.
He refused claims that Fulham's players could be 'on the beach' this weekend: "Never in my career have I met a manager or player who doesn’t want to win. Never ever in my life."
On midfielder Mateo Kovacic's first season at the club: "He played really well, because he has not played in the position of [Ilkay] Gundogan. His contribution against Nottingham Forest - he changed the game. Really, really good."
On Fulham boss Marco Silva: "I admire him a lot. Not just at Fulham, but Watford too. Offensively and defensively, they are very good."
When asked whether he will be a Manchester United fan for one day on Sunday when they host City's title rivals Arsenal, he smiled and replied: "I'm a Manchester City fan."
