Manchester City defender Ruben Dias has travelled with the squad to the Wanda Metropolitano after a six weeks thigh injury.

 

Guardiola hopeful is hopeful that the Portugal centre-back could feature in the 2nd leg of the Champions League quarter final.

 

Pep said, “He makes one training session and six weeks off, the fact he’s back is incredible.”

 

“We work on defending when we don’t have the ball and when we do have the ball. To win trophies you have to be solid and concede few goals, indeed few chances.

 

“We are not an exceptional team individually for defenders – ask Kevin [De Bruyne], Phil [Foden], Riyad [Mahrez], Gundo [Ilkay Gundogan].

 

“But altogether we run as a team and that makes us really solid. If we are not solid tomorrow, it will be difficult to get to the semi-finals.”
