Eddie Howe’s turn for a chat with TNT. “It will be a very difficult one against City … it’s difficult to know how they will play, always guessing to a degree … we just need to get our part right and deliver a really high-level game … [Joelinton’s absence means] we lose a bit of physicality, drive and steel in midfield … he chips in with vital goals so will be a miss for us … we’ve enjoyed the week … there’s been a good vibe around the city … we’re happy with our preparation … out of possession we have to be very good … there can’t be big spaces because they’ll kill you … our attacking players have to function … [the win at Sunderland] was much more like ourselves … hopefully that’s given us a real lift … if we find our best form we will pick up enough points to have a good season … we have to be progressive and attack the match.”
Pep Guardiola talks to TNT Sports. “It was an option [to start with Kevin De Bruyne] … I thought about it … he was five months injured, basically … it’s a lot of time and this is a tough place to come … I prefer not to play 90 minutes with Kevin … Newcastle’s transition is so fast … maybe we will struggle because they are really, really good … of course we miss Erling [Haaland] … Julian [Alvarez] is really good … the scouting department did a really good job to bring him here … [City’s league position] could be better, it could be worse … you are in the position you deserve to be … one step at a time.”
He’s also asked if City have any big plans for this transfer window. “I don’t think so.”
