Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City press conference ahead of the Manchester derby.
The Premier League returns with a bang this weekend as City welcome Manchester United to the Etihad for a blockbuster Sunday afternoon fixture.
The Blues have lost successive top flight fixtures and find themselves in the bottom half ahead of the weekend's matches, while United got their first win of the season last time out when they beat Burnley.
With the transfer window now closed, Guardiola will assess the summer business which ended with the deadline day arrival of Gianluigi Donnarumma and departures of Ederson and Manuel Akanji.
He will also provide an injury update with question marks over a host of players. Omar Marmoush became the latest name added to a lengthening list when he picked up a knee injury on international duty.
Guardiola is set to face the media at 12.30pm so stay with us for all the build-up, the quotes and the analysis.
