He added, “Focus on all the details. That is the best way to prepare for Schalke and the Carabao Cup final. When you want to play a final in one week, or a tough game in the Champions League, the best way to prepare is to make a good game. The players have to risk. It would be a problem for them if they don’t risk and play like a professional to win the game. If they think about the next game, maybe the next one they stay here and they don’t travel to Germany. In those situations, I’m not a sweet guy. They have to take it seriously and play the game like it deserves.”
Speaking about the opposition, Guardiola said, “We treat them with a lot of respect. They’ve done incredibly in this competition and what they do, they do it really well.”
