Pep Guardiola believes that Manchester City played "the best game of the season". "I'd say it is", the coach commented after the game.
"We played well because we did the hardest thing in the world of football: playing easy. After that, everything comes out, and the quality of the players makes the difference. We had an incredible game. On and off the ball, defending up front and controlling Vardy... We performed well and all that's left for me to say is thank you to my players," he declared.
He had special praise for Kevin De Bruyne, who ended up scoring and securing the win for the team. "Kevin is a player who has it all. He's played amazing again. Against Arsenal he won the game on his own. Against Leicester, I'd say it was the team that won it," he said.
