As a coach, I cannot train 24 players, then when the match comes to leave 4.5 or 6 at home because they do not happen to play. This will not happen again. I told the club that I don't want that.

I don't want to have 24, 25 players when the whole lot is valid. In case we have medical problems, bad luck. We will take some players from the academy and we will handle it, ”said Pep Guardiolaquoted by journalist Fabrizio Romano.
