CELEBRATION TIME: For the City squad
âSince he arrived, Antoine has had a sense of goal. He can play in three positions and in the last game he had an incredible finish.
âIt was massive. It was a little swap, normally he crosses to Erling but he has that sense and it was a really good goal.
âNo [there will be no celebration]. Maybe one beer.
âNext Monday we are going to celebrate with a parade in Manchester. Chelsea had seven days to prepare the final.
âWe spent six hours yesterday travelling on the train. Itâs a problem in this country!
âI think we behaved good and we are stable. Finals can be changed with margins.â
CAPTAIN FANTASTIC: Bernardo celebrates
This latest Wembley success was an especially poignant moment for skipper Bernardo Silva and substitute John Stones who are both leaving the Club in the summer after nine and 10 yearsâ magnificent service respectively.
But for the boss, he said their impact on the Club went far beyond the capture of so many trophies in that period.
âAbsolutely [itâs nice for Bernardo and John] but if you have to judge their service here today on whether they win the trophy, itâs not about that,â Pep stressed.
âThey have been incredible and I have so much gratitude for how they represent this club in the best way possible.
âBernardo is a machine and today he showed it again.
âAlways I had that feeling but still right now I cannot overcome the feeling that many incredible players could not play.
âSix didnât travel and Phil [Foden] played incredible on Wednesday night but did not play.
âItâs tough but it is what it is.
âJohn and Bernardo are leaving but we have two games and hopefully we can fight for the Premier League.â
