Pep Guardiola says he ‘loves’ to think a lot as a manager as he responds further to criticism of his team selection during Tuesday’s Champions League defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Intro 0:01 Playing to be safe? If that happens you are not who you are. The good players don’t think about the consequences. They just try and do it. We didn’t do that against Bayer Leverkusen. 0:30 My opinion of the players is top. Nothing changes as the individuals. It’s just I learned I made mistakes with the amount of changes because they didn’t feel comfortable together. 1:06 The players have to have confidence. Aggression in the duels and be present. 1:43 Fans? Players need to be better at motivating themselves when things aren’t going well. If I was a fan I wouldn’t want to cheer on my team playing the way that we played. 2:01 Aston Villa was quite similar. We didn’t try . To play good or bad doesn’t matter but if you didn’t try then that’s a problem. 2:47 Want more noise from the fans tomorrow? If we play good, yes. 3:40 Liverpool drop off? Shows how difficult it is to win title after title. We’ve proven it in the past many times. Other teams have gone down. When I make 10 changes I know the consequences. Managers, in their cases, when they think a lot it’s a bad thing. Together we have to do it, it’s a team. 5:29 Overthinking? I love it! I can make a list of all the things I think about that work. After that I’m a genius. 6:14 Against Newcastle we did a really good game. But we lost. The last game was not good and now we have to recover the momentum we had before the international break. 7:09 We cannot lose games. Arsenal are so strong, so solid. Like when we faced Liverpool in the past, they are not going to drop many points. 7:43 Don’t know when Marmoush will be going to AFCON. Omar has shown his quality in the last few games but didn’t find him all the time. 8:32 Kalvin Phillips has some problems. A niggle in his leg. He needs time to recover. @HaytersTV –
