Well, I think, you know, you look at the Premier League, it's almost impossible now, isn't it?

Liverpool just look unstoppable.

The gap is so big.

Champions League will obviously be the main target for them, but that's obviously so difficult to win.

You know, there's so far to go, so many good teams in that.

So, you know, Guardiola will probably be thinking about this League Cup.

He'll be thinking he's entering maybe the latter stages of his time at Man City.

He'll want to sort of build his legacy and just get as many trophies as he can under his belt.

As you said earlier, Man City have won four of the last six League Cups.

Guardiola does take this competition seriously.

He's shown that in the last few seasons.

I think he'll be desperate to win it.

Yeah, I think this is a good chance to kind of...

Well, they're definitely lacking that kind of creative spark, aren't they?

Someone to get on the ball and make things happen.

Without Paul Pogba, there really isn't anyone in that team capable of doing that.

Madison and Grealish are both players that you can understand why Man United would be looking at them they're both I think they're good friends actually and they're both kind of vying for England places and perhaps even a move to Manchester United as well or who doesn't want to go to Manchester United but no I mean look I think

Grealish definitely had the better of last night, didn't he?

And I think overall this season, the stats suggest he kind of has been more influential than Maddison, perhaps.

I think Maddison has created more chances than any other player since the start of last season.
