[birdsong]

[sauna rocks sizzle]

[pensive synthetic music playing]

[Bernardo] When things go wrong,
I feel that responsibility,

and the manager knows it,

it's a lot on him,
but it's also a lot on the players.

We-We-We underperformed, a lot of us.

[Haaland] Of course it's a lot of stress
and it's a lot of pressure on us.

That's why it's important to sometimes
disconnect a little bit as well.

Driving to training,
I think it's a good time on my own.

That's why I prefer it
normally in the night.

Just, like, like it is now.

Like, peaceful.

And just cruise.

[interviewer] Do you speak
to Pep much this season?

Yeah, a lot, a lot.
Well, the manager calls me a lot.

[chuckles] The manager calls me a lot and...

It's good to have a demanding coach.

It's good to have a coach that...

that, uh,
that wants more and more and more.

[pensive synthetic music continues]

[inaudible chatter]

[Pep] Okay.

Here's a few clear images.

Lights.

Our celebrations.
I'm going to talk about that.

We score a goal,
look how you celebrate it.

Yeah, it's fine. You are happy.
I didn't know you are so happy.

Here you go, you touch here and come back.

Go there, and stay 30 seconds here.
Hug, 30 seconds.

30 seconds guys!

Look.

Look at the difference, in training.

Look at you! Look at you!

Did you do that against Brighton?

Look how you celebrate it,
down, and the other one.

Look at how you are here and here.

It's this! We are here
in this fucking business for that.

For that. Look!

Do you feel the pressure?
Fucking hell, that's what it's about!

It's nice to feel it, otherwise
we'd be in the Maldives, all of us.

Let's go guys.

[all applauding]

[pundit] The big game
of Premier League is the Manchester Derby.

Some questions already being asked
of Pep Guardiola's side.

[pundit 2] Manchester City hoping
to turn around back-to-back defeats.

[pundit] It feels like
the Manchester Derby has to be a must-win.

[inaudible]

[pundit 2] Both teams secured
new goalkeepers over the past few days.

For Manchester City, Gianluigi Donnarumma
comes straight into the team.

[Pep] Come there, come there.

Guys, we are going to do something.

During one minute, ten seconds,
fifty seconds.

Everyone is going to hug each other
for five seconds, so tight.

Everyone. For five seconds.

- Come on, guys.
- [players cheering]

[indistinct]

[Pep] Sometimes with the players,
you have to go beyond tactics

directly to the emotions.

[commentator] Doku.

Shifting it through here
for Erling Haaland!

[crowd cheering]

Stamps his mark on the big day again!

Everywhere he goes.
Week on week, month on month.

Mbuemo! What a shot! What a save!

[commentator 2] That is a hell of a save.

[commentator] Ahead of Haaland who starts
the run from inside his own half,

and has miles and miles all to himself.
Erling Haaland!

For Manchester City, the slide stops here.

Could this be the spark
to reignite City's season?

The win today, was from the hugs before.

And the hugs were not tight.
I tried, and you didn't hug me tight.

I want tighter. Tighter and more seconds.

And I want you to feel my vows to you.

I'm so proud of you guys
and that is the start

I'm telling you,
you'll have a great, great season.

Congratulations to everyone guys,
well done.

[Pep] The problem with this game is that
when you win, you forget immediately.

Apparently it [winning]
should be our job, no?

I want my players to be amateur,
not professionals, amateur.

Amateurs that go to the street,
to play in the square, to play football

finish school and play, play, play, play.

That is...

You want to commit
for the huge salary we get, that's fine.

But you also have to do it for yourself.

For the joy, for the pleasure,
to be an amateur.

[inaudible]

[Pep] Okay, first...

Guys, I'm not going to do this
every single day.

Huh? But...

I didn't like how we hugged each other.
I want more and more and more.

Lights, please.

["You Win Again" playing on video]

Ah, it's so nice. Look, everyone.

Fuck, how nice is that?

The kindness, and the love,
and the passion

and everything you're doing.

And everyone is connected.

[interviewer] I'm guessing most
of those players have never

heard the Bee Gees before, eh?

I'm pretty sure not.

[chuckles] It's a culture.
You have to educate them.

[song continues playing]

[commentator] Haaland!

And what a way to bring up your
half century of Champions League goals.

[players cheering, whooping]

[Rodri] Every duel, will be the win
that gives us the ball

and that's why we have the ball.

Because we fucking play together.

Come on!

[commentator] Gvardiol.

Thumps it up for Haaland. Matheus Nunes!

[commentator 2] A five-star performance
for Manchester City.

[song continues playing]

Get that camera away!

Can you tell the DJ
to put on the Star Wars song?

[commentator] Nico O'Reilly into the box!

Majestic!

The boy from the academy
gets his first goal of the season.

[commentator] And the Blues will now
move up to second

in the Premier League table.

[interviewer] I'm amazed by how much
of a connection you have with the players.

Ask that to the players that don't play.

And you will see
the connection emotionally.

I am attached with them.

They want to throw me to the garbage.

They want me... [chuckles] ...I promise you.

They are incredible, top talented players.

They are sitting and you are telling them
"You don't play."

You are telling them, arguably
"You are not good."

You are telling him, "I love you"
and, "I don't love you."

And that is no solution.

[in Spanish] It's not
his responsibility, and he suffers.

If a player is happy.

If a player is unhappy
because he doesn't play

and he calls me at night saying

"Manel, this player isn't happy,

he doesn't deserve it,
he doesn't deserve it,

he doesn't deserve it
but I have to choose."

So this is his flaw too,

because he could simply
be a football coach.

These ones play, these ones don't play.

But first and foremost,
he wants you to be happy.

[in English] The love he has
for the players is that

when guys are not playing... [chuckles]
...it hurts him so, so bad.

[interviewer] But I've seen some video
of the Leverkusen home match...

you were really, really upset.

What was different?
Why were you so angry at yourself?

[sad music playing]

[commentator] We are ready...
The Champions League.

Manchester City against Bayer Leverkusen.

[commentator 2] It's interesting.

We expected Pep
would make changes tonight,

but ten changes? Were you expecting that?

[reporter] Ten changes from Saturday.
Why so many for tonight?

I wanted 11,
but I don't have the players to do 11.

For me, it is a happy day
to let them play.

Players that maybe didn't play
that much lately.

Wish you the best luck. Thank you so much.

[inaudible]

[player] Embrace the opportunity guys,
to show how good you are.

Come on, let's go.

- Come on.
- [player 2 speaking indistinctly]

Ninety seconds to a minute.
Guys, why don't we...

why don't we hug each other today guys?

That's what's missing guys.

[all laugh]

I need cuddles.

- Let's go.
- [players cheer]

[commentator] Now Reijnders will take it,
right underneath the crossbar.

Head it away.
And then Lewis hits the shot.

And then it comes back to Bob,
and he's turned... Oh! Just wide!

Aké brought it towards the net.

City are stretched here.

And Bayer Leverkusen lead here.

[melancholic music playing]

[commentator] Pep may well be
questioning his selections now.

[commentator] And it goes towards
Patrik Schick who makes it 2-nil!

[commentator] What a hugely
disappointing night.

[commentator] That's about as flat
a Manchester City performance

as I can remember for a long, long time.

And there's no one else to blame tonight.

There's no dodgy... [indistinct]
...or decisions or red card against them,

anything like that.

[music ends]

[sniffles, clears throat]

Maybe I should apologise.

I don't know. Maybe I should apologise
for the fact I made ten substitutions.

Maybe we changed, but

it's impossible to play football
without courage.

Fucking hell, guys
everyone has two days off,

"I'm going to show them

and I'm going to show that I'm the best
I'm going to win the game.

I'm going to show
this fucking bastard manager

that I am better than the other guys."

In the end, it's a competition
between each other.

Where is the competition today?

I feel sad guys.
I feel disappointed for myself

for the incredibly stupid
things I try to do

to make you safe, to make you secure,
to make you confident to do it.

I feel fucking stupid.

I arrive here at eight o'clock
in the morning guys

and I stay hours and hours, trying to find
something to arrive here in your heart.

In your heart.

And when I don't get it, it's frustrating
personally to arrive here inside

to open the knife,
open and arrive here in your heart.

And feel, yes, I will do it!

And I go to the meeting without the shirt

because I'm going to be sweating,
and I don't want to sweat

because I want to transmit
that I love that game

and I love my job,
and I want to give it to you.

And you don't give back guys, I'm sorry.

And you know what is going to happen?

You know what's going to happen?
You will have another manager.

You will have another manager.

I have to be worried for the next
[team] selection now?

I have to be worried?

When I see one [sad] fucking face
at the end of the season, I kill you.

Guys, I kill you.

When I see your fucking face
complaining for something

when I make my decisions,
I fucking kill you.

Work harder, work better, live better!

Because you can lose games, and I defend
you many times, but it's unacceptable

this lack of courage, passion, and love
and desire to win and do it better.

And when I say "Hi", you say "Hi" to me.

When I say "Hi" and hug you, you hug me!

Because I work for you

and I leave my life, my divorce,
and my family is away, and everything

for all of you. And what do you give back?

The fucking performance
you have done, all of you.

It's a disgrace guys.

[Pep scoffs] Fucking hell.

I am really fucking tired, tired.

When I see that, I am exhausted,
I am drained.

I wanna quit.

I'm tired my friends, I'm so tired.

I feel alone.
When you play like this, I feel alone.

I'm going to the media to defend you guys.

Tomorrow you will not see me,
the day after tomorrow I will be there.

Allez. Have a lovely two days guys,
I'm going to the media.

[reporter] Pep, you've been
in the dressing room for a long time.

What has been said in there
between you and the players?

It belongs to us.

Right. What's your assessment
of what you saw out on the pitch tonight?

[clicks tongue] Eh, well,

it's not the performance that we thought.

Maybe, of course,
I take the full responsibility.

Still, I think that the players are stars.
They are exceptional players.

[Soriano] The level of disappointment
and self-criticism was very high.

I think our attitude with Pep
should not be too negative.

Or aggressive.

Because it doesn't work with him.

But... Should not be too kind
or accomodating either.

This is a mistake.

And this time, it's his mistake.

And we should correct it.

[Al Mubarak] To go and do
an entire new team

on a game this important.

Probably one of
the lowest points we've had.

I can't speak to him. Honestly.

I didn't speak to him yesterday.
I didn't message him.

I can't even speak to him today.

I'm so angry.

Certainly, he's, he, he, he's put,
you know, erm,

a mix in this that's just so unnecessary.

Let's just let this pass.

And then we'll talk about it.

In the right way
with a constructive approach.

You have to let it go for a few hours,

and if-if it's a big defeat,
might take two days.

- Before you can start thinking.
- [interviewer speaks indistinctly]

I mean... [stammers]
...he's got a thin skin as you say.

These genuises are unbalanced people.

N-Not only Pep, not only in football.

In any artistic activity.

[interviewer] Ferran said,
"Pep is a genius,

but a lot of geniuses
are unbalanced people."

- Unbalanced people? So...
- [interviewer laughs]

So, I am an unbalanced person?

[interviewer laughs]
I think that's what he's implied.

With a smile, with love.

Yeah. I am, I am.

My mood is sometimes up here,
and sometimes I'm so down,

but it's another thing I said
to my players many times, or my kids.

What is the problem?

You are sad? Play being sad.

You are happy? Play being happy.

So, all the time today

you have to be incredibly happy,
incredibly beautiful.

You have to be incredibly elegant.
You have to be...

everything has to be perfect.

No. [chuckles] No why?

[commentator] City have
a real problem here.

Right across the face of the goal!
And turned in!

And Chelsea do have their equaliser!

In stoppage time!

And Arsenal are celebrating
as heartily as Chelsea.

Matheus Cunha.

Puts in a good cross,
and Dorgu makes it 2-nil!

And the Derby, I'm afraid, is over.

[inaudible]

[commentator] Here in northern Norway,

80 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle,

Manchester City
against the minnows Bodø/Glimt

who have never won a match
in the Champions League.

[commentator] Hauge is forwards,

and Høgh's waiting
at the back post! And it's good!

Nice football again here
by Bodø/Glimt! Oh!

[commentator] Oh! Stunning!

- [commentator 1] Blomberg.
- [commentator 2] Oh! Rodri's off.

[commentator] Yeah. It's a red card.

Their captain out there tonight.

Two quick yellow cards,

and Guardiola's side are in
all sorts of trouble here.

[player] Guys, seriously.
What the fuck is this?

[players chattering indistinctly]

[player] What the fuck are we doing?

I'm the first that demands from all of you
and I committed a mistake.

So, sorry for that I...

I committed a mistake.

[coach speaking indistinctly]
...across field, and then to the outside...

That was a-was a... a proper low.

The moment a team loses confidence,
or the moment a team loses this...

[inhales deeply] ...this dominance,
what makes them them.

What makes all their strengths,
like, flourish.

The moment you lose
that kind of confidence...

And the season becomes hard.

[players clamouring]

On this moment,
you need, like, role models.

Lads, if we want to win leagues,
and we are making bad faces to each other,

- and we don't run, we are fucked!
- Yeah.

It's a lot of work to do what we did,
at the beginning of the season.

If we stop, we are fucked!

We go downhill.

We need to be very good to be consistent.

So get that in your fucking heads.

- [Haaland] Come on.
- [coach] Matheus.

- [player] You ready?
- Come on, come on, come on.

- Yeah, come on. Come on, out.
- [coach] Yes, yes, yes.

And when your dress room has real leaders,

before you need to speak as a coach...

they will speak.

When you...
If you don't win the ball, stop them.

Put them on the ground. It doesn't matter.
We defend... [indistinct]

They try to push into the goal.

- Right? They block you at the second post.
- Yeah, yeah. [indistinct]

[Lijnders] You need them to show...

like, the unwritten rules.
Like when it's tough, you train hard.

When it's tough, you help each other.

That mindset you need to become champions.

Everything we do,
even when it's not working, is good.

[Haaland groans]

The next one.

[yells] Fuck!

We react, that's our strength.

[Neville] For once,
they're not the best team.

Arsenal are the best team.
Arsenal have got the best squad.

Arsenal played the best football.

They're the most consistent,
they're the most solid.

[pundit] And, it just...
they underline the modern depth

they have on that squad, Arsenal.

So I think certainly Manchester City
will have sat up and taken notice of that.

Are you capturing the new star-signing?

He's coming for my Golden Boot
so he's not going to pass to me.

- [players laugh]
- [Semenyo groans]

Ah, don't do that now.

We are just reaching our potential,

our full potential,
we're still far from it.

And I think you're going
to help me bring this energy.

We just need to make people believe again.

But, yeah, context.

Yeah. Thank you, man.

[pundit] These are players that
are crucial at both ends of the pitch.

These are statement signings
that will say to Arsenal,

"We are chasing you."

[Ruben] Get ready, get ready.
We need energy.

[Guéhi] Of course.

[commentator]
So after two disappointing away defeats,

City return to the Etihad Stadium

determined to repair the damage.

The first to bring them
within four points of Arsenal,

the Blues quite
simply have to beat Wolves.

[clamouring]

Guys, I'm not going to lie to you.
This is our last fucking opportunity.

If we don't win this fucking game,
we lose the Premier League.

I want everyone today...

to push the crowd, put them on our side.

Make them believe that we're
going to fight for this Premier League

until the very fucking end!

- Let's fucking go.
- [cheering]

[commentator] Rodri in the centre circle.
Plays it into Cherki.

Cherki to Bernardo Silva.
Bernardo Silva to Semenyo. Semenyo!

That is a fabulous goal.

And Pep Guardiola absolutely delighted
with it.

City win it back.
Matheus... Ooh, he's got it back again.

With Mané into the area he goes
and City haven't got it cleared.

That Mosquera shot,
and Arokodare can't get to it.

And then another Mosquera shot.

And Marc Guéhi and Nico O'Reilly
fling themselves in the way,

and then they applaud each other
as if they've scored.

- [crowd cheers]
- And City have won.

The Blues within four points of Arsenal.
Perfect day at the office for City.

[players applauding, cheering]

Well played guys, well played.

He [Pep] looks really happy.

[coach] All right. Let's go.

[calm music playing]

[both laugh]

[player] Get in.

What is that face Antoine? [laughs]

[interviewer] I heard you went
on talkSPORT radio

and said that you thought that Arsenal
were gonna win the League this year.

- Yeah.
- And then you got a phone call.

I got called
into the headmaster's office, yeah.

I think I said if we have to beat them,

we'd have to get to the Etihad
and still be there.

We'd have to be perfect.
But I don't think we're gonna be perfect.

[chuckling] Fucking message of Pep saying,

"Oh. You don't believe then?"

I was like... [mutters]

And he's like, uh, "You don't believe?
Oh, the rock star, you don't believe?

Oh, my Go... Oh, my God. You don't believe?"

I was like, fucking hell.

You know, talkSPORT called me, said,
"You wanna come after the game?"

[stammers] No, no. Not a fucking chance.

Who-Who gives a shit if a rock star
says anything on talkSPORT? You know...

[interviewer] But he knows
that belief is what it's all about.

- If you don't believe, then the players...
- Exactly. Exactly.

[pundit] They're a little bit on the ropes

in the sense that
they've gone out of Europe.

Arsenal are in Europe,
the nine-point lead of the Premier League.

If Arsenal could win
the Premier League title,

that would be a very, very special season.

Anything beyond that...

This is the team that,
uh, that has been, you know...

uh, the last couple of years catching up
with us and really built to beat us.

With a manager, in this case,
Mikel, that-that, you know, was with us.

He was Pep's number two.

Was deeply ingrained within our system.

I think Pep opened the eyes to
a lot of these guys who worked with him.

[speaking indistinctly]

Him leaving us
and then taking over Arsenal,

yeah, I mean,
there's always that natural rivalry.

[commentator] Oh,
it's going off on the pitch again.

[crowd cheering]

Stay humble eh. Yeah, stay humble eh.

- Come.
- What?

It's good.

[sighs]

[journalist] In the game here last season

there was a bit of a fallout,
wasn't there,

between yourself and Mikel Arteta?

Stones and Silva said that, um,
Arsenal's tactics were the dark arts,

to which Mikel said, "I was here,"
meaning City,

"for four years,
I know exactly what went on there."

And as I understand it you weren't
particular happy with him saying that,

and you sort of said next time
he has to be a bit more specific.

- I just wonder how are relations now?
- It's good.

[journalist] Are you best friends?
Do you go for dinner?

No, I don't have time to go to London.

And I think he has no time,
with four competitions,

to come to Manchester.

[pensive music playing]

[commentator] There's a lot of talk
in the build-up to this

about the psychological blow that
City could potentially land on Arsenal

in terms of the title race.

[commentator] It's the first time
the top two in the Premier League

have met in a League Cup final,

and right at the heart of it
are the two managers

who were once teammates at Barcelona,

then they were colleagues
on the coaching staff at Manchester City,

and now they are rivals
in the dugout this afternoon.

[tense music playing]

[interviewer] I was told by Ferran that
the night before the Carabao Cup

you totally changed the plans that you...

what you were going to do
strategically with the team.

Is that true?

Sometimes you train something,
have a game plan the day before,

two days before.

And, uh... and after, it doesn't work,
it doesn't work

and you start to review clips
and you start to say,

mm-mmm, the way you have to defend,

or attack, or whatever
has to be different.

When you sometimes change something
at half-time

you can change it before the game.

Before the final, the Carabao,

he came in my office--

like our offices are next to each other
with a door in between--

he come in, he said... [groans]

..."I think we need to... [clicks tongue]
...surprise them as well."

[Pep] It's there?

You stay left in there.

Of course, they will have Rice
and the potential to go

and put some pressure there.
Then you have the two against one.

They normally, for me

it will be Rice, the three there
and Trossard and Havertz in front

and Matheus there
with the two guys and we jump there.

[man] Three minutes 'til the bell.

Three minutes 'til the bell.

[crowd cheering]

[commentator]
And what a day, what an occasion.

So there's every reason to feel there is
a lot more at stake than just the trophy.

[crowd cheering]

[commentator] As well as silverware,

there does seem a psychological edge
to be had for today's winners.

[players shouting indistinctly]

Everyone!

From the first second.

Together guys, yeah?
Let's fucking go out there!

Let's fucking have it! Let's bounce back!

Let's bounce back strong! Everyone!

[whistle blows]

[cheering intensifies]

[commentator] Declan Rice...

sticking to his touchline.

Here's White, slipped on by Zubimendi,

and Havertz was defied,

and Trafford went down again
and made a double block.

[tense music playing]

[commentator] He's caught him in...

[whistle blows]

[commentator] Haaland twisting and turning
and just held up.

[no audible dialogue]

[whistle blowing]

[Pep clapping hands]

[exhales]

[speaks indistinctly]

So you are top guys, believe me, yeah?

The first 10, 15 minutes,
Arsenal were in every fight

always it's hard,
it was intense, and it happened.

- Stand up everyone guys, come here.
- [device beeping]

Stand up, guys.

Stand up.

Look over here.
Wait, wait, normally Saka is there.

Saka is not here.

Don't wait, go aggressive
because that's when we drop them.

Make it two against one.

Yeah? Another one here.

- Rodri's the move.
- [device beeping]

Look Nico... on the same side.

Zubimendi doesn't come, Bernie is alone.

They come, always the...

...oh fuck!

[players chattering, cheering]

[crowd cheering]

[pensive music playing]

[commentator] Silva,

Cherki,

Kepa's lost it and O'Reilly has stolen.

[crowd cheering]

[commentator] On the hour,
the bright, young Mancunian.

Another wave of City blue, Doku.

Nunes.

O'Reilly!

All over again.

[crowd cheering]

[commentator] A delicious double...

for the lad who dreamed City blue.

It is City's cup again.

The Nico O'Reilly finals.

His day, their day.

[sweeping music playing]

[interviewer] When you talk about hugs,

what's so important about hugs?

We want to be loved.

A hug is the best expression to...
to feel gratitude,

to feel love, to give love.

The best we do, is when we feel love
in the place, that you want to be.

But, if you are able to create
something like that

that should be our dream.

[commentator] This changes
the whole complexion of this title race.

It gives them a massive opportunity
when they play in April.

♪ Ten more years
Ten more years, Guardiola! ♪

Khaldoon!

♪ Ten more years, ten more years
I pray ♪

[Pep] Khaldoon!

Pep was sending me videos from the bus,

when they were in the bus.

[players singing]

[Khaldoon]
And the celebration after that win,

it was about more than winning the cup.

[players continue singing]

[tense music playing]

[pundit 1] It is one of the biggest games
of the season.

[pundit 2] It's perfectly placed isn't it?

[pundit 3] It takes its toll in the end

knowing that
you've just got to win this game.

[pundit 4] Nothing is straight forward

when you factor in all the outside noise
and what's at stake.

[pundit 5] Do you think
he will still be here next year?

- How you doing?
- Nervous.

Mm-hmm.

It will be tough, guys.
