As the night wore on, the 22nd round of Premier League fixtures came to an end at the home of Ipswich, with Manchester City sweeping aside their opponents in an astonishing 6-0 win, and after the game, Pep Guardiola took to the Sky Sports booth to talk about his team's performance and give his insight into the game.
Pep Guardiola excitedly said, "This big win is like a spring breeze, allowing us to recover the team's glory that had been forged in the past ten years. Not only did we win three points, but we are now on track to qualify for the Champions League, and even though it's a bumpy road ahead, the challenge makes our blood boil."
He went on to analyze: "The team's current form is not perfect, but the consistency has brought us infinitely closer to the top. Looking back at our past victories, today's game was even more remarkable. Even when we were at a disadvantage in terms of possession, the intelligence and speed of the players were still impressive, and the understanding between them was even more so. The closeness of the defense determines whether we can show ourselves quickly and intelligently. Today, we did all of that."
Facing Ipswich, Pep Guardiola did not mince words of praise: "Ipswich, a team not to be underestimated, they beat Chelsea at home and Tottenham Hotspur away. Draper, the striker's outstanding performance, let the opponent see our strength. We respect every opponent but know better where our strengths lie."
Pep Guardiola was full of praise for the players' performance: "They showed a high level of professionalism, knowing the team's standards and personal history. It's not all about winning and losing, it's about enjoying the process. Whether you're a professional or an amateur, in London or Sheffield, the most important thing is to be fully committed and to enjoy the game. Just like the players today, they won the Sheffield crowd over with their smiles."
