Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola isn't concerned about ref Anthony Taylor taking charge of today's derby.

There's claims of Taylor being a Manchester United fan.

But Guardiola says: "Mr Taylor is from Manchester, but do people know the team he supports? Altrincham. So no problem.

“He is going to try to do the best job, like we try as managers and football players. Mr Taylor is going to try and make a good game.

“The important thing is to focus on our game and knowing which opponent we are going to face. That is all.

"Hopefully the officials can make good decisions for both sides and it is a good game. All of England and all of Europe is going to watch us. That is the most important pleasure.

“The referee doesn't want to make a mistake. He knows everyone from around the world is going to watch him and he doesn't want to make a mistake, that is pretty sure. But, if he is fan of United or City, everyone can be a fan of whoever he wants, so no problem."
