Every word from Pep Guardiola ahead of Man City vs Arsenal Community Shield fixture

Pep Guardiola speaks to the media this afternoon ahead of Manchester City's Community Shield clash against Arsenal.

City travel to Wembley for the fixture on Sunday with the Blues looking to land the first blow of the season off the back of an incredible Treble-winning campaign.

City's transfer business this summer has been relatively slow so far. Midfielder Mateo Kovacic has arrived for £25m while Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez have moved on. Meanwhile, a fee is agreed for defender Josko Gvardiol and his signature will be a significant piece of business for City, though it seems unlikely that he'll be available for Sunday.

Arsenal, by contrast, have been busy this summer having signed Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber, with midfielder Granit Xhaka exiting.

City came away from their Asia tour with wins over Yokohama and Bayern Munich and a narrow defeat to Atletico Madrid, and Sunday will make their final chance to prepare for their Premier League opener at Burnley next Friday evening.

The Puma home shirt features the traditional sky blue colour but has slightly darker blue detailed stripes across the front which take inspiration from the Etihad Stadium's walkways. City moved to their new home from Maine Road in 2003 and the shirt honours that anniversary.

Prices start from £55
