MORE REACTION FROM PEP
“We now have everybody fit, that’s why we can rotate 6/7 players for most of the games.
“If you want to compete in four competitions you have to rotate, the seasons are so long.
“The last game against Fulham we played with two strikers, today we didn’t play any and in both games the team was solid and they played a good, good game and that’s the most important thing.”
REACTION FROM PEP
The Man City boss told BT Sport:
“It was a good performance, we had the game under control for 90 minutes.
“The way we played was really, really good, everyone was in their position and we moved the ball around quickly.
“Everyone showed commitment and we’re delighted to be in the next stage.
(On City’s defence) “We’ve conceded just one goal against Porto, thet’s quite impressive, Ruben (Dias) and John (Stones) have made an incredible step forward for the team.
“We defend with the ball that’s the most important thing.”

REACTION FROM DE BRUYNE
The Man City midfielder told BT Sport:
“Our start obviously helped a lot. We were patient in the beginning, and when we scored the two goals it gave us a bit of a cover.
“We controlled the game and had a few chances in the second half. The second half was a bit less, but that’s understandable.
(on keeping clean sheets) “I think it’s always important when you’re stable as a defence and as a team, it gives the whole team confidence. It’s easy when we don’t conceded first.”
