Manuel Pellegrini: "Nicolas Otamendi was arguably the best defender in La Liga last season and so naturally I'm delighted to have added a player of his quality. He is an established international for one of the best nations in world football and I have no doubt that he has the right mentality to fit into a squad. As a footballer, Nicolas has all of the qualities to be a success in the Premier League - he's strong, he's excellent in the tackle and he's very good technically."

Roberto Martinez: "(The John Stones saga) has been the hot topic of this transfer window and will be highlighted every day the window is open. But our focus is only the games. In my eyes City are the sharpest team in the league and our focus is on preparing for that. It’s positive when players attract interest from other clubs. Transfer request is not an area we need to concentrate on. What we do is that in 48 hours we play the team that’s top of the league and that is all that matters.”
