Guardiola: 'No-one can compete' with City's star striker Haaland

HAALAND AN EXAMPLE TO ALL AT CITY
"When I am in the dugout, I enjoy Erling the same way the fans do. He is an outstanding player. We are aware of how good he is. I am trying to learn as much from him as I can. He has desire - he doesn't settle for one goal. In the derby after we conceded, he was disappointed because he wanted a clean sheet.”

DANES WARY OF CITY'S ALL-STARS - NOT JUST HAALAND
"He is obviously one of the best strikers in the world at the moment, if not the best, and we will do what we can to limit his possibilities. But there are also 10 other players we will need to be aware of. They are one of the best teams out there. People talk about their big names but I am more impressed by them collectively."

PEP ON FC COPENHAGEN
"They are really good, well organised and you have to be careful. You have to come back to reality [after the derby win] and put our effort in to win an important game. If we are able to make nine points from three games we'd be so close to the next stage."
