Mr Gallagher,

a pleasure.

I’m fine.

My brother, Pere.

No.

I came, no, no

I came to learn.

Yeah of course

that’s why I move on.

I came to learn, if not I would still be in Barcelona

with the huge players Barcelona have.

No.

For the people, for the media

it’s how many titles are you going to win.

But, in the end

maybe because I’m a Latin guy

I need you know, to be

close to the guys.

To hug,

to say...

“I’m going to kill you.”

And five minutes later to, you know

to love each other.

I think I need that to be happy

and I hope in these three years

that is going to happen.

and the people can be proud to see how we play.

This type of decision doesn’t happen overnight.

No, it’s a process. Like when you are driving your car

when you are on the plane

after the games with a victory, after the games with a defeat.

With a glass of wine.

These are all little pieces of the puzzle

and I said, “Okay Pep, it’s enough.”

All stories arrive to the end.

Guys don’t be sad because you were top.

You were completely top.

We have in this, three against two here.

Here’s closed.

It’s here.

Zubimendi sometimes follows Bernie here.

It’s three against two...

always this three against two.

So it is the left side that we have it

and after we can go, and after we can find in the second ones,

Rayan we can go in that position, and we can find it.

Okay, guys?

Guys go do your best.

Winning once is difficult, winning twice in three weeks is even more difficult, guys.

We are there but please, please, please don’t lose the focus.

Now everybody is going to be saying, “It’s done, it’s done, it’s done.”

But I’m just telling you, they are top of the league.

They are, we are not.

Focus on Wednesday, in Burnley, one hour away.

A short trip, at night. A team that is already relegated.

Everybody will say, “It’s done, it’s done, it’s done.”

It’s not done, guys.

They are top of the league, don’t forget it, but on Wednesday night

we can be top of the league. Okay?

I’m so proud of you, I love you so much guys.

Oh my God.

I lost ten years of my life.

I don’t give a shit.

It’s better to be a singer.

Do you know that I listened to him, this bastard

two months ago, saying “It’s over.”

Fire the manager! Fire the manager!

Bernie make in the box, and the other ones

you have to make it in front of Kelleher

to score a goal, to dribble and to shoot!

Ready for the final... final Wembley?

Final Wembley, yeah.

How you doing?

Nervous.

The scenario, the final, everything.

Emotions, everything. But it’s good.

Today is an emotional day for all of us.

For all of us.

When the central defender plays it to the keeper...

Erling, you go like a fucking machine to press him

and it’s going to be a long ball.

Finals with emotion, it’s not easy guys.

We’re not going to win 3 or 4-0 here.

The team that wins the final, is the one that suffers the most in the bad moments.

You decide. Do you want to win, or do you want to lose?

Simple as that.

Are you tired, Erling?

No.

Are you tired?

No.

Why don’t you fight for the ball there, and win the duels

like you have done with Saliba, and all the other players?

In a fucking final.

Are you tired? Then someone else will come on.

We need you.

You are tired, tell me now. I left fucking six players out.

Six players that I’m ashamed of myself leaving out.

Where’s your quality? Movers in behind, in the box, go!

I love you anyway! Erling, like a father. I love you anyway!

But it’s not about that.

Nothing else! Do you want to talk now?

Show me that. Show me you want to win!

So now, let’s go to the Pep farewell announcement

because this is quite fluid.

The way that we’re going to position this...

This is about celebrating the ten years with Pep.

And he’s actually bought into the idea.

He likes this idea.

And we wanted to make it feel positive.

Of course we’re sad...

But it is important that this is a celebration.

The first thing he said was, “I’m going to do a press conference.”

And I said to him, “That is exactly what you’re not gonna do.”

Because we don’t want external media to have this story, right?

So we will announce at noon on Friday.

Why would we wait until Friday?

Pep said not before the game. “I don’t want any distractions.”

He definitely wants to talk to the staff and the players before.

Next.

I wish you’d all remember that, I told you many times I have one more year.

No, it is what it is. Today in modern football...

People talk.

Guys, we have to play like that today, yeah?

Like that.

Without that, it will not be enough.

They will pull you. You have to pull them.

What did I say in Anfield guys, this season?

Who kicks first?

We have to stand up, until the end.

Our goal kick.

Our goal kicks sometimes go there, and sometimes make two in that position

and they come.

So, continue with that with Khusa

to make a cross, to go there.

We have to create more chances.

Maybe you are tired, guys. Maybe you are not.

But I will continue [to say] that you have to fight to not give the Premier League to Arsenal today, guys.

The moment we score one, we will score two.

The moment we score one, we will score two.

But we have to score a goal. But don’t allow them, guys.

We cannot leave the Premier League there guys.

Have a little bit of pride, guys.

A little bit of pride.

Give a little bit more.

Give us the chance for the last one, guys.

You are playing good, yeah.

It’s not bad.

But it’s not enough, guys!

We cannot drop to leave it there guys.

We have to do it, we have to arrive there!

Take the pride.

It’s one, one.

I want to win the game!

I want to go there and make the actions to win the game.

How many late balls, easy balls, did you lose in the final third?

You’re better than that!

Sincerely, you didn’t give up in the tough season that we had.

I do not have more words to say.

I’m so proud to...

and happy to work with all of you.

And now, we have to rest a little bit, and prepare for the last game

to make a proper farewell for

John [Stones] and for Bernie [Silva]

and next season we will be stronger, and better, and sharper.

I don’t have the feeling that we didn’t try.

We did everything, but sometimes we admit [defeat], congratulations to Arsenal

for the Premier League

and keep going.

Yeah, see you tomorrow.

It was almost. But you know...

Nothing is eternal.

I tried to do my job as best I can

every single day, that's for sure.

But, there arrives a moment that...

Another one has to come.

It's normal, it’s normal.

It's not a problem.

I don’t know what he is going to do.

He needs rest.

He needs rest.

And he needs to see

that also there is a...

There is a life after football.

How many times...

Before he goes to sleep he says [to me]

“Manel, no doubts.”

“We will never find a better place

to work, to live

to pursue our passions

than here. Never.”

Okay many times [he said] “I want to leave” blah, blah, blah

but after that, I am in my bed, before I go to sleep

and Pep Guardiola [calls] and says

“Where are we going now?”

“Where?”

“I’m at home.”

“This is my home. This is my place.”

When City lost 3-0 against Real Madrid

I had a dinner with friends.

Not one minute [did anyone talk] about the game.

I remember, I was with my wife as well

and I was saying...

“One day I’m going to explain this to Pep.”

That there is a life.

You lose 3-0

but life goes on, and these amazing moments

that you can live with your friends.

But if everything is...

If he meets only...

Football, and football people...

He’s going to always be on the same rollercoaster

that he has been living.

He needs time to...

Out.

Be really out.

I have to sit here?

I cannot read it standing up?

For the voice, here. I prefer to stand up.

Don’t ask me the reasons I’m leaving, there is no reason.

But deep inside, I know it’s my time.

Nothing is eternal, if it was I would be here.

Eternal will be the feeling...

The people, the memories, the love I have for my Manchester City.

It will be tough, guys.

You have filmed it!

Let me go out for a little bit, otherwise I will cry again.

Guys, I will be quick.

Like John [Stones] Bernie [Silva] and Xabi,

Loren and Manel...

On Sunday, you know that it will be my last game

as a manager, or being part of this club.

The reason is simple.

To go to Selhurst Park

to go to Anfield, to go to League One

to go to the FA Cup

Madrid, Madrid, Madrid, Madrid

and deal with the adorable, adorable, adorable players that we have

you have to have something that I had.

Because I had energy, I have energy

but deep inside, I will not have it anymore.

I’m leaving with an incredible gratitude and happiness for all of you.

Now, in a few minutes, our fans will know of my departure

and before this is released

you deserve to be the first to see

[something] I think better than my words

what I lived here.

And guys

I need the hugs and kisses.

Don't forget it.

A lot.

Enjoy.

We worked, we suffered, we fought

and we did things our own way.

Our way.

Trips to Bournemouth

when we lost the Premier League

and you were there.

And trips to Istanbul,

when you were there too.

And you have been just exceptional.

You don’t know it yet

but you are leaving a legacy.

So as my time comes to an end, be happy.

And what a time we have had together.

Don't ask me the reasons I'm leaving.

There is no reason

but deep inside I know it’s my time.

Nothing is eternal.

If it was, it would be here.

My Manchester City.

Right, last game of the season guys.

All of the season you were exceptional in every training session.

So I think as it’s the last time

and Bernie [Silva] and John [Stones] are leaving...

So we have to put them in the sky, no?

You’ve done 1,150 press conferences.

Sorry?

Nearly 1,150 press conferences.

1,150?

“Why are you leaving?”

Because of 1,100 press conferences!

To [remember] me?

I said to them do whatever they want, whatever they want.

I don’t know, whatever they want.

What a day, brother.

What a day, beautiful.

Beautiful, eh?

It was so difficult.

As always, you have the game, and your focus is with that

but of course the emotions, especially for my Dad.

95, being there.

Cris, the most important woman of my life

and my kids being there, it was so special for me.

In the end, in sport, in life

we give too much value

to winning and losing.

Unfortunately it’s like that.

Well, there is a poem by Kipling that says

both are impostors. Both are fakes.

I know, when I lifted the trophies

and I’m sorry to tell you, we lifted a lot.

The day after, it’s over.

Winning gives you the chance to extend the contract, to give you a job.

But it’s not the final product of your happiness.

What I am the most proud of

is the history that we leave, you know?

We saw, with our own eyes, here in front [of us].

And that time... it was so fun.

And the people were so happy to see that team play.

I don’t know, not even myself, what I am going to do.

Honestly.

I don’t know.

But for sure, I will not be for...

It will be difficult to come back. That’s my feeling today.

It will be difficult to come back.

I need to refresh many things, that happened in my personal life.

And professional, what I’ve found, I need to...

To find myself in a little bit, in different things.

Especially sitting, and seeing time go by.

Or the times cross in front of you.

There is a word in Catalonia, it’s called ‘badar’.

Badar is like this...

Right? So, I’ll do that.

That is one of main targets I want to do.

I need to call [Evangelos] Marinakis, about Elliot [Anderson].

I’m in a bit more of a rush, because we can’t lose this one.

We’ll have a look.
