Original subtitles

- How are you? - Nice to meet you.

Mr Gallagher, a pleasure.

- I'm fine. Happy to see you. - You all right? Nice to see you.

- My brother, Pere. - Hi.

- No way. How are you? - Very good. Very nice to meet you too.

You say that... Or we've read that you say

that you only really stay anywhere for three or four years.

Do you intend to build a legacy here, or at least...

- No. I came... No, no. - ...put the foundations in place?

- I came to learn. - You've come to learn?

Yeah, of course. That's why I move on.

I came to learn. If not, I would be still in Barcelona

with the huge players Barcelona have.

Because we hope that you're gonna get addicted

- to the place and the weather, right? - No.

And that you're gonna stay forever.

What does success look like three years from now?

For the people, for the media, it's how many titles are you going to win.

But at the end,

maybe because I am Latin guy I need, uh, you know, to be...

close to the guys, to hug...

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - ...to say, "I'm gonna 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.

So take a-take a...

- Like this? - Yeah.

When did you decide definitely you wanted to leave?

This type of decision doesn't happen overnight.

No, it's a process.

Like, uh, 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 little pieces of the puzzle,

and I said, "Okay Pep, it's enough."

So...

And... all stories arrive to the end.

Manchester City against Arsenal.

What has become the game of the season.

Slowly but surely, they've eaten away at Arsenal's lead.

And now they have an opportunity to finally catch them.

This game at the Etihad, it's absolutely massive.

It's like a final.

Whoever wins this game, wins the League.

The game to which a season has built.

For the second time in a month, the high-stakes arm wrestle for control.

Arteta has never been more hungry to beat him.

It's about the psychological and belief in your side

and not making mistakes.

City win, and they have the impetus

for a neck-and-neck sprint to the line.

Arsenal win, and tonight they are boss.

And here is how it plays out.

Oof! That cannot happen.

That cannot happen for Arsenal. What the hell are you playing at?

Sent in by Doku for O'Reilly. And Haaland!

Gabriel blocks!

And Cherki bubbled it across the face.

Rodri.

Hincapié. Taken back by Nunes.

For Rayan Cherki! Oh, it's lovely!

The little magic man has done his thing!

With swagger and style!

- Oh, my goodness me! - Oh!

Kai Havertz has pounced on Donnarumma!

And Arsenal are level.

Truly sublime to ridiculous.

Can't believe it, Pep Guardiola.

Hincapié, Nunes, very tight.

And there's a bit more, and Pep was close to the contentious incident,

and he's just about holding himself together.

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.

If it's three against two...

always this, three against two.

So in this left side you 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?

Yes? Guys, go do your best.

Guys, we need this game!

Guéhi.

Rodri going long. It's a peach of a ball for Antoine Semenyo

whose first touch escapes him.

Sometimes you see these matches,

and they can become a game of chess.

Let's have a shoot-out.

Eze, pounced upon. It's reached Jeremy Doku!

Eze on his way. He's rolled it up here for Martin Ødegaard.

Kai Havertz! What a save! Ødegaard's chasing it back in.

Ødegaard.

Eze! Oh, he's hit it inside of the post!

Oh, my goodness. Arsenal have sprung into life.

Doku.

O'Reilly.

Haaland!

Haaland and Gabriel again. Careful, careful.

Ooh. Why did you do that?

Oh, he's got both.

Well, Pep knows what he saw.

Trossard. Hincapié on the march and falling into the penalty area.

Rice from very deep.

Pings for Martinelli. Away from Nunes, in for Ødegaard.

Guess whose tackled him? Bernardo Silva once more.

Mr Everywhere.

Ødegaard. Gabriel against the post! Havertz had a pop.

Last three minutes of stoppage time now.

White. Trossard.

He's got a run at O'Reilly. Trossard! Oh!

Kai Havertz has rippled the netting from the outside.

Ninety seconds...

to survive.

Donnarumma goes long.

Still no whistle.

Now the whistle!

A monumental Manchester City win!

City have seized the pivotal day!

And Arsenal now are all but reeled in.

And the race is neck-and-neck.

Whoo!

Get that fucking song on. Get the fucking song on.

Winning once, guys, is difficult.

Twice in, uh, three weeks is, uh, even more difficult, guys.

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

Now everyone is going to be saying, "It's done, it's done, it's done."

Just tell you, they are top of the League.

They are. We are not.

Focus on Wednesday, guys, in Burnley one hour away.

Short trip, night. A team, like, is already relegated.

Everybody say, "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.

What's this shit?

Oh, my God.

I lost ten years of my life.

If you were gonna get a red card, I was gonna kick your ass.

- I don't give a shit. - No, no, no. Give a shit.

- We still have to go. Come on, come on. - I don't know. It doesn't matter.

- You good? - Hey, how are you?

Hey!

It's better to be singer, huh?

It's better to be singer.

Unbelievable...

Do you know that I listened to him, this bastard,

two months ago saying, "it's over."

Come on!

Fire the manager! Fire the manager!

Manchester City move top of the Premier League.

Same amount of games as Arsenal. Same amount of points as Arsenal.

Manchester City are back at Wembley today

as a place in the FA Cup final is at stake.

What a story developing here at Wembley. Manchester City nil, Southampton 1.

Ten minutes to go.

Jeremy Doku takes the shot! Deflected in!

Nico González hits it from a mile away!

And the Sky Blue Juggernaut continues to roll into another final

chasing a domestic treble.

As City were battling in the Cup,

Arsenal have snuck into a six-point lead,

which means every game now is must-win.

Come on, guys! Let's go!

Forward goes Röhl, and he keeps on going.

And City are in trouble again,

and it reaches Barry who turns it over the line!

Everton 3 - City 1.

And the whole season is unfurling beyond City's control.

Well, in a title race as tight as this, there is a reality.

It's Haaland, though, down the middle. Haaland has to score. He has done.

And City are back in the game at 3-2.

Can we see something special here?

Foden whips it in. Up goes Donnarumma.

Guéhi with the ball. Guéhi can't find the ball.

Doku now tries the shot. It's in! It's in!

It's 3-3!

City still need Arsenal to pass up the victory somewhere.

But Doku's given them hope.

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!

Allez, let's go!

He gets back to it. Doku, shoots in position!

City move within two points of Arsenal.

Eze with a strike! Oh, what a beauty!

Three goals, three more points banked.

Manchester City right on Arsenal's tail.

With two Premier League games to go,

City head into the FA Cup final

hoping to take another step closer to a domestic treble.

Ready for the final... final Wembley?

Final Wembley, yeah.

How you doing?

Nervous.

- Mmm. - But, um...

The scenario, the final, everything.

- Emotions, everything. But it's good. - I know.

- Today is an emotional day for all of us. - It's good.

- For all of us, yeah? - For all of us.

For all of us.

See you tonight.

- Let's fucking win this, guys. - Come on.

Let's win this. Let's just fucking smash them.

We're there.

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 is emotion, it's not easy, guys.

We're not going to win 3, 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 you want to lose?

Simple as that.

Away we go then.

Football's oldest and greatest annual occasion.

It's Marmoush in the centre.

He's tackled though. Now Chelsea sprint.

It's good football from Chelsea.

Now they've got a man free here, down the right, Malo Gusto...

Cucurella can't quite get there.

Half time.

You could argue that Chelsea have looked

a little more adventurous when going forward than Manchester City have.

- You are 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'll sub 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!

Yes! Allez, let's go.

Cherki, first involvement.

Finds O'Reilly.

And O'Reilly stands it up.

Semenyo goes for it!

Couldn't get over the ball,

and the ball goes over the bar.

Past the 70-minute mark.

Chelsea nil, Manchester City nil, as Haaland finds Bernardo Silva.

Bernardo Silva finds Haaland again.

Semenyo!

Special!

That is class. It really is.

There's the final whistle!

The winning machine that is Pep Guardiola's Manchester City

secure their second trophy of the season.

And now they dream of a domestic treble.

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... 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 that thing he said is "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...

Sorry. We don't want the external media to have this-this-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."

- Yep, okay. - Fair enough.

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

Ben, look, huge story. Um...

I didn't see this coming, I really didn't.

I bel... I believed that he was gonna stay, but...

Sources have told Sky Sports News that Guardiola

will be leaving this summer.

This was a decision that City have tried to keep a lid on.

They're still declining to comment.

You can understand, can't you,

why the club don't want to make any announcements.

The fact we're in the midst of this title race,

it puts a lot of pressure on the game.

Good afternoon, everyone. Hope you're well.

We'll take a show of hands for questions, please.

Mic's this side of the room...

Have you ever thought about what kind of farewell you might want?

- Sorry? - Have you ever thought about

what kind of farewell you might want?

If you knew you were leaving?

Next, allez.

I wish you'd all remember that,

I told you many times I have one more year.

Were you irritated that the news you were leaving

came out before the Bournemouth game?

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

People talk.

You know?

When you're in the season, in the middle of a race,

you don't want any disruption.

You don't want any disruption.

You don't want... You know, you don't want anything to affect the groove.

You don't want anybody... anything to affect the focus.

You want the focus purely on the game, and that's what Pep wanted, always.

The focus just on the game.

Let's go, guys!

Drink some, boys.

Guys, we have to play like that today.

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?

Yeah?

We have to stand up, until the end.

Okay? Allez.

More than speculation about his future.

But City know that anything less than victory will spark

celebrations in north London.

Bournemouth are coming forward already.

Truffert has it in a left wing position.

Lovely football. Tavernier.

Oh! Evanilson has missed an absolute sitter.

An absolute sitter.

Tavernier.

Truffert in a race with Nunes and gets there first.

It's Kroupi...

It's glorious!

That goal could have dealt City the final blow.

The question now, what do they have left?

- Because we're not fucking doing it. - Guys, it's 1-nil. Just 1-nil.

Our goal kick.

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

and they come...

So continue with that with Khusa to make cross, to go there.

We have to create more chances.

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

But I will continue that you gotta fight to don't 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.

Leave to see the weekend or 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 afford to fail, guys.

We have to do it! We have to arrive there! Think of pride!

That's what I want. I wanna 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! Allez.

So, the Premier League will go to Mikel Arteta

and his team unless City can score twice in this second half.

Silva... Bernardo Silva to Semenyo. Semenyo good turn.

Plays a little ball to Haaland. Haaland's done well.

City going down the middle.

On it goes to O'Reilly!

And saved!

And in the end, Bournemouth clear it.

Brilliant start to the second half.

The Blues carved out the opening, but couldn't score the goal.

Rodri...

That's a great ball.

Doku taking on Smith.

And he's got beyond Smith.

And he's back on the inside, Doku.

And then it's smashed out by Rayan.

Only 20 minutes remaining here.

City have got to find two goals.

Cherki... Cherki mishits it but it goes out for a corner.

Nine minutes to go.

City just can't find the right pass.

And now they're wide open.

But Brooks comes forward.

And he hits the post!

Well, City have gone for it in a big way

and suddenly Brooks was through down the middle.

It's Rodri...

A foul by Kluivert.

And Rodri has really reacted to Justin Kluivert here.

Time running out.

Cherki flips it up.

Up go the heads. O'Reilly glances it.

Khusanov glances it.

Haaland glances it.

Up into the air it goes.

Rodri against the post!

Haaland, in! In! They've scored!

Is there time? Is there time?

Is there drama?

Ninety seconds of added time to go.

Savinho's away!

Down the left hand side!

Savinho into the penalty area!

Savinho! Shot comes in, it was blocked. I think Cherki blocked Rodri's shot!

Still we go on. Donnarumma.

There's the whistle!

Arsenal are champions!

City left heartbroken.

They took the fight right to the end but fell at the very final hurdle.

Guys... Guys, uh... Sincerely, uh, you didn't give up

in the tough season that we had.

Uh...

I cannot have more words to say, so...

I'm so proud to... Yeah.

I'm 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... 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, uh, and keep going.

Yeah, see you tomorrow. Allez. Okay, guys. Come on.

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.

What do you think Pep's gonna do next?

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 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."

Tough. That is a life.

You lose 3-nil,

but life goes on, and these amazing moments

that you can live with your friends, with...

But if everything is...

If he meets only...

Football and football people...

He's going to always be on the same roller coaster

that he has been living.

He needs time to...

...out.

Really out, eh?

- Hello. Hello, hello. - Hello.

- Hello, Alex. - You okay? You all right?

Loosened up. How are you? Okay?

Hello, Michelle.

- I have to sit here? - Sit here and get comfortable

- and just read. - Ah.

I cannot read it standing up?

It's up to you. If you want to stand up, stand up.

No, for the voice here, no?

- I prefer to stand up. Can I? - Do it at the table.

- Okay, let's go. - It's all right.

Let's go from there.

Don't ask me the reasons I am 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 to film it!

- Let me go walk a little bit, yeah? - Yeah, yeah.

- Otherwise I will cry again. - No problem.

So, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for trusting me.

Thank you for pushing me.

Thank you for loving me.

Tony Walsh said in his unforgettable poem...

"This is the place."

I'm sorry, Tony.

Here you go. Allez. Actually close it.

Guys. I will be quick.

Like John, Bernie, Xabi, Manci and Lorenz and Manel...

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

uh, as a manager, or being part of this club.

Uh...

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, 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.

Uh... I'm leaving with an incredible gratitude

and happiness for all of you.

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

And before, before this is released, you deserve to be the first to see

I think better than my words,

what I leave here.

And, guys, uh,

I need the hugs and kisses. Don't forget it. A lot.

Allez. Enjoy.

We worked, we suffered, we fought

and we did things our own way.

Oh, wow!

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.

Haaland!

So as many times 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.

Sky Sports News understands that after ten years

filled with trophies, Pep Guardiola will leave Manchester City

after Sunday's final Premier League game of the season.

Let's go. One touch, one touch. Let's go.

Let's go, let's go.

Right. Last day 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 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.

- One thousand one hundred and fifty? - Roughly.

"Why you leave?"

For one hundred...

Uh, 1,100 press conferences.

Good afternoon, everyone. Hope you're well.

Aston Villa. Allez.

Hi, Pep. Um, how would you like the fans

and the players to remember you at City?

- To [remember] me? - Yeah. How...

How would you like them to remember you?

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?

How did you feel on that last game?

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, uh, my kids being there was so special for me.

Welcome to Etihad Stadium

on the day that Pep Guardiola says farewell

after ten extraordinary years.

Today is also John Stones' and Bernardo Silva's final match.

The former, Pep's longest serving player,

the latter, the one he's picked more than any other.

...you have to play other games or play for Bernard.

Guys, we all know what everyone here means to each other,

especially to everyone that is leaving.

Let's enjoy the last dance.

An in-swinging corner from the far side this time.

Pass backwards... Semenyo toes it in!

Villa, looking to spoil today's party.

Bailey whips it in.

It's in!

It's 1-1.

More changes here for Manchester City.

Bernardo Silva, signed by Pep Guardiola in July 2017,

made more appearances for Manchester City under Pep than any other player.

And credit to the Villa fans who are also applauding Bernardo Silva here.

And now the curtain comes down.

And so too off comes John Stones for the last time.

The longest serving player under the Guardiola era.

John Stones has been here every step of the way with Pep Guardiola.

Now, the ball forward. Watkins is onside just about.

Watkins will go forward. Watkins...

And scores!

City are going to lose Pep Guardiola's final game as a manager.

Villa, winners on the final day

as Pep Guardiola's phenomenal reign in charge of this football club

bizarrely ends in defeat.

In the end, in sport, in life,

we give too much value to winning or losing.

Unfortunately, it's like that.

But winning and losing are both important things

that you have to accept. Feel.

- So, it's-- - 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, I would say, happiness, you know?

What I'm proud of most is the history that we leave.

You know, we saw. With our own eyes, here in front [of us].

In that time, it was so fun.

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

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

Honestly.

I-I-I don't know. But for sure, I will not be for, uh...

It will be difficult to come back is my feeling today.

Very difficult to come back.

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

Many things happened.

And, uh, professionally, 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.

Just relax.

He looks like someone that had two tonnes of weight here,

but suddenly, it's gone.

So I'm more handsome now?

Breaking news, Enzo Maresca will take over

from Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

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.
