Mourinho, Guardiola stay cordial ahead of Manchester derby

"To try to do this now is more hard".

Jose Mourinho says Zlatan Ibrahimovic is his own man and is not inspired or influenced by many people.

"When Aguero is available, we know Aguero plays".

"Nobody has doubts. If he is ready, he will play".

"In this moment, he doesn't play". "It's a very good squad". In the style of a DraftKings fantasy football line-up, (that's one goalkeeper, two defenders, two midfielders, two strikers, and one utility player) let's take a look at the best Manchester has to offer.

"He (City manager Pep Guardiola) could decide to play with Iheanacho or Sterling".

"Everyone who works here at the stadium, everyone that works in the training ground, people they meet in the hotel they're staying in right now, they will all be emphasising that this is a game you can not lose". But now he doesn't play, they have an wonderful squad in terms of options and there are many things he [City manager Pep Guardiola] could do. We are playing to try and win the title.

Three players could make their City debuts, with Claudio Bravo set to play in goal following his move from Barcelona last month. Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Luke Shaw had been labelled as doubts following knocks picked up on worldwide duty.

The duo featured for Argentina against Venezuela on Wednesday but took a convoluted route home, seemingly to Mourinho's chagrin - especially as City duo Nicolas Otamendi and Pablo Zabaleta had direct flights back. "But now he doesn't play, they have an fantastic squad in terms of options and there are many things he [City manager Pep Guardiola] could do".

"But Sergio and Marcos, they went around the globe". He does not go behind your back, he will tell you. "Maybe since the new owners arrived at Man City", Mourinho said.

While Souness sees there is a "mutual dislike" between the two managers, he doesn't believe it will have an impact on the players or the outcome of the game.

The Spaniard then discussed striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with whom he endured a hard relationship during their time together at Barcelona.

Speaking to Sky Sport ahead of Saturday's Manchester derby, Fellaini said: "Louis van Gaal trusted me, I played a lot of games. I will enjoy the game".

United have begun the season in strong form recording a home win against Southampton and two away wins against Bournemouth, on the opening day, and Hull City last time out where Marcus Rashford notched the victor in injury time.

It seems the red devils have finally got their house in order with the appointment of Mourinho, whilst City continued their plan for a well-funded European football domination as they brought in the highly rated Guardiola.
