About the 3-0 victory over Liverpool at home

Guardiola said: "I would like to thank the players for giving me this gift. This is one of the most important opponents I have faced in the 10 years of coaching. I can see players like Robertson and Salah fighting on the court for so many years, and I hope there will be more More confrontations like this. "

"We press high and win the ball back as quickly as possible. I like to see the team's ability to attack based on short passes. In the first half, we talked about confrontation, and everyone's mentality was that we must win the confrontation. It emphasized that. But we lost some confrontations at the beginning of the second half, which made the game more difficult for the midfielders. But the performance of the defense and Nico Gonzalez was very good."

"This game made me feel that the team came back in many aspects, although I didn't like the performance in the second half. It's not as good as the first half, but we need to continue to grow. This victory is important, we are now in second place in the standings."

Guardiola's current assistant is former Liverpool assistant Pep Lijnders. He particularly praised the performance of Docu and left back Nico O'Reilly, who faced Salah in this game.

Guardiola said: "Salah has been a nightmare for opponents over the years, and Nico said he must be aggressive against Salah. This also benefits from the fact that every time Salah gets the ball, we have three or four players double-teaming him. Facing Salah, there is no better full-back test than this. Our defensive performance was very good, especially in the first half. "I was also impressed by the performance of Bradley at right back, Lijnders told me that he can do almost everything. I know how good he performed against Vinicius. He played an extremely good game with and without the ball."
