Pep Guardiola has credited improved body language as the reason behind Manchester City's recovery from a slow start to the 2025-26 season. City stretched their unbeaten run to five games in all competitions as two goals from in-form striker Erling Haaland helped Guardiola's side overcome a spirited Burnley 5-1 in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Marseille sporting director Medhi Benatia thinks Roberto de Zerbi has "something of Pep Guardiola" in him and hailed the Italian as a "beautiful and inspiring" coach.

John Stones is ready to sign a new contract at Manchester City as Pep Guardiola's side attempt to extend the England international's stay.

Pep Guardiola has eased Manchester City fears by confirming Erling Haaland is fit to face Burnley despite a recent back issue.

Pep Guardiola hailed Kyle Walker as one of the greatest right-backs ever and is certain that he will get a big reception from Manchester City fans when he returns to the Etihad Stadium with Burnley on Saturday. Walker helped City win six Premier League titles and the Champions League in a seven-and-a-half-year spell with the club, although he had a sour end to his time there.
