Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge (kick-off 16:30 BST).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Guardiola confirmed Ruben Dias is "getting better" but will not be ready for Sunday. He said Mateo Kovacic is now "fine", John Stones may do some "partial training today" and Josko Gvardiol is "getting better too but still he is not close".
The City boss says with seven Premier League matches left they "have to win every single game". On their situation, he added: "We need to do all of them otherwise it will not give us a chance to do it until the end. We were not consistent enough during the season, we dropped points that we should have taken and that's why we are in the position now where we cannot do it differently."
Guardiola was asked whether he feels more excited at this time of the season: "No, I have a lot of yellow cards, that [shows] how excited I am. Not just for April but during the season I have had a good energy and still have a good energy."
On Bernardo Silva and whether or not he will leave the club this summer Guardiola said: "I do not know, I am so grumpy with Bernardo because a month ago I said I had to be the first, to tell me and he didn't say anything to me yet. I do not know if he has already decided because I said jokingly 'tell me, I deserve it', but he didn't tell me so I do not know what is going on."
Guardiola praised Silva's intelligence and said making him his captain is the "best decision" he's made this season. The City boss added: "He has been an incredible signing for us. I love this club amazingly and I would love if he could stay and finish his career here but I do not know. He will decide what he will decide. It is his decision but he has been an incredible signing – the numbers, minutes, and titles. Especially in bad moments, I define the players in the bad moments when everything is difficult, how they make the step up and say 'I'm here' to help."
