Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says it was not possible to stop the pace of Manchester United's attacking trio on Saturday.

Marcus Rashford, Daniel James and Anthony Martial ran rings around City's defence during the 2-1 win.

"I like how my team played," he said at his post-match news conference. "We conceded a little bit more space - not more than usual, but more than last year against United.

"We knew about the pace they have, with James, Martial and Rashford, but sometimes it is not possible to control it."
