After defeating Juventus 5-2 at Manchester City and qualifying from the group stage of the Club World Cup as the top spot, Guardiola was interviewed by Italian media Mediaset.
Are you satisfied?
"Of course I am satisfied. We beat a team that played two exciting games in the Club World Cup. Juventus has always been Juventus, and we haven't played such a game for a long time."
"We have always believed that we had a great team last season, but we suffered too many injuries, almost 200,000 (exaggeration). But now we have found ourselves, this is the way we should go. There is no need to say more, the key is to work hard."
The team has recovered its form?
"Yes, we won the first two games before, but the situation was different from today. We need to regain our identity (style, characteristics). As for whether to win or not, who cares? The important thing is to regain our self."
Haaland scored 300 goals at the age of 24
"This guy can score goals, but he also needs to know that there is competition in the team. Marmush performed well and everyone had to try his best. Otherwise, it would be difficult for everyone."
You used to cry because De Bruyne left the team. How do you think of him joining Naples?
"I'm not just loving him, but on top of it. In the years, it would be impossible for us to achieve without De Bruyne's efforts. This is an extremely difficult decision. I wish him all the best."
"De Bruyne will join a special team, there is one of the strongest coaches in football history, and Conte can always do what he should do. I wish Kevin everything goes well and happiness."
