Chapter 1: How did Manchester City perform against Crystal Palace?
We are at Selhurst Park where Manchester City have beaten Crystal Palace by two goals to nil and score of the first goal. Gabriel Jesus joins us now. Thank you so much for coming out to talk to us. Make sure you keep warm while you're here. But given how close it was last season, does every win feel like a big win?
Yeah, it's like today. We know always when we come to play against Palace, it's always difficult for us. They have good players and strong football. And this season, I think it's going to be the same because Liverpool is now eight points in front of us.
Well, five at the moment because you got the win today.
Five, sorry. But, yeah, we have to try to win every game.
All your five starts, you've scored every goal all the way from home. I bet you'd like to play some games at home as well.
Oh, it's coincidence, you know? Yeah, I have to work to improve my football all the time because I have to agree with me, you know, Is that difficult sometimes when you go in and think I might not be starting this week as a top class player like you are?

Chapter 2: What insights did Gabriel Jesus share about the match?
Oh, yeah, it's difficult, but I cannot stop, you know. I can try every time I start the game. I have to work every transition. So, of course, always I respect the decision, the manager's decision. So I try my best every day.
Talk us through your goal, because it's a really good finish. Clinton, you like this one as well.
I like it, I like it. For me, you've got one of the best movements I've seen in and around the box. You always come alive, and that's why I want my centre forwards. But I want you to tell me how you scored the goal. Did it hit your head or did it hit your shoulder?
I tried rather, but I think it took the shoulder. So yeah, I have to improve this side because I have a difficult sometimes header. So water cross from Bernardo as well. I'm a little bit lucky.
What I was going to say to you, with players like Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, the way they're fantastic at delivering balls into the box, is that when you just make your movement off that? If you know Kevin De Bruyne or Bernardo Silva is going to be out wide, are you just making movements into the box?
Yeah, yeah, both, but not Kevin. Kevin digged it to one today. I know, I know. the ball crossed there, so I tried to go to the ball, but I missed, so I know it's important for us, the strikers, to play with these players, you know, who cross the ball every time.
Look at the wonderful players you see. The Kevin De Bruyne cross, I remember it, first half, and you were frustrated because you just missed it by about a yard.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know he's going to cross the ball there, and all the time, cross perfect.
That's 50 goals now for Manchester City, Gabriel. When you start, you score, as Jamie was saying. How proud are you to reach that milestone?

Chapter 3: How does Gabriel Jesus describe his scoring technique?
So, no, I thought he came across really well and he plays the game the right way.
I think Jamie is such a good, nice young boy because he's learning from Aguero and he's thinking, I scored today, I might not play the next game. The competition, there's good rivalry there and he's learning from Aguero. I think that's brilliant because most centre forwards, they'll soak. If they're playing one week and not playing the next week, they'll soak.
He says, no, he keeps listening, learning because he knows his time's going to come. And when it comes, he takes hard and keeps working hard. Absolutely, man.
And he is only 22 years old, but he becomes the seventh player to score 50 goals under Pep Guardiola. And he is in the company of some big Manchester City names there as well. And big, not just Manchester City, but big worldwide names. Lionel Messi is at the top with 211 goals under Guardiola. But Aguero is in there. Thomas Muller is in there. Robert Lewandowski and Pedro.
Nice company for a 22-year-old to be keeping, isn't it?
Brilliant company. Look at some of those names. And he's in there. It's brilliant. And that's testament to him. He keeps learning. And he's only going to get better. He'll score a lot more goals. And he'll get to near the top. I don't think he'll catch Messi. But he's a really good player. He's in good company there. His coach is a good player, isn't he? Yeah, he is. Not average players, is it?
We hear this message from Manchester City players all the time. They talk about learning. Even more senior players than Gabriel Jesus, they talk about the process that they're going through at the club. It never stops for them.
That's what every player says. When you've been lucky enough to play football, you always want to learn from a coach. Every day you go to training, when you speak to Man City players, it's like an education. And that's obviously what Pep brings to them. It's a real challenge for them this year. One of Pep's biggest because of the injuries they've got.
And even today, the first thing we're talking about is how they're going to cope with Rodri and Fernandinho at centre-back. You know, they're struggling without Laporte, but I thought they coped so well today. They were brilliant because it was a test. You're playing against a side that were... I thought I was disappointed in Crystal Palace.

Chapter 4: What challenges did City face defensively in the match?
So, yeah, I think the back four respond really well.
So having just cut that gap at the top to five points, will you watch Liverpool tomorrow against Manchester United?
I have to see Atalanta.
Oh, right. OK, so Italian football tomorrow?
Yeah, sure, definitely.
Thank you.
Pep Guardiola, as always, focused on what Manchester City are doing. He's not worried about their rivals, he's worried about what comes next, and what comes next for them is Atalanta and the Champions League on Tuesday.
That would make sense for them. There's not a lot he can change tomorrow. He'd love to get that phone call and say, Liverpool have lost the game, and they'll obviously feel their back in it, if that's the case. But he'll be delighted today, because it was... Obviously, after international duty, you have not got a lot of time to work with the players.
It was a makeshift back four, no matter what he says. It's one that he wouldn't want to play every single week because if they get Otamendi and Stones back. But I've got to be honest, having watched those two today and seeing Otamendi and Stones play at the back, they looked a lot better.

Chapter 5: How did Crystal Palace respond to City's tactics?
That's at home on Tuesday. Then they've got Aston Villa in the league, Southampton in the EFL Cup, Southampton in the league, and then Atalanta before they play Liverpool. Does that look like a comfortable, if anything can be such a thing, Clinton, run of fixtures?
Well, there's no comfortable games in the Premier League, but there are games that Man City will be looking to win, Aston Villa at home, Southampton at home, and then it's the big game on November 10th. Obviously, that's not alluding with the Champions League, I expect them to beat Atalanta, but then the Liverpool game, that is the make-or-break game.
When they play Liverpool twice, they need to take the six points, because if they don't, me personally, this is my opinion, I think Liverpool will go on and win the Premier League, but they need to take maximum points.
What do you think about that run of fixtures leading up to that game, which is one we're all going to be looking at as a potential, if not a title decider, then certainly a barometer?
They are good, but so was Norwich and so was Wolves at home. So you just, you can't look at any of them and say that they're going to win those games. You know, you've seen the problems they've had in the games where you least expect it. So in paper, they're easy, but it's never that easy in the Premier League.
When they're going to get
It's red rivalry. Sure to be red blooded, possibly some red mist at times. It is.
Manchester United versus Liverpool. And it's live!
Manchester United against Liverpool. All the build-up from 3 o'clock on Sky Sports Premier League. It's a huge game in any season. This time around, there is so much at stake for both sides. And ahead of the game itself, the Manchester United boss, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, sat down with his old teammate, Gary Neville.
