Pep Guardiola says he is delighted with the makeup of his squad after a summer of change at Manchester City.

"So far I am so excited and so happy [with the makeup of the squad].

"Sometimes the market was strange for us. Normally we are a team that buy and didn’t sell much. This summer for different reasons, we sell some players.

"Sometimes you want to do it but you can’t. This summer it happened so quick. not just first-team players - academy and loan players. New players have come and we continue with them.

"One of the things I am trying to discover before we buy a player is if he is a nice guy. I don’t like to work much with guys who are not nice. When you have a locker room and the chemistry is good, that is worth more than hours of tactics.

"This summer we have bought some exceptional people. And the rest we know each other.

"And we are sad because Raheem, Gabriel and Oleks were incredibly beloved.

"Since I arrived in Manchester, the chemistry has been incredible. It makes things good for me."
