Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says their Community Shield shootout defeat to Arsenal won't affect their season preparations.

City now move on to Friday's Premier League opener with Burnley at Turf Moor.

"Win or lose, right now I know the position of the team," said Guardiola, with an eye also on the UEFA Super Cup.

"We have to recover well and prepare for Burnley and then travel to Athens, play at 10pm, finish at 2am come back and play Saturday against Newcastle at home. This is my plan.

"We would love to win today absolutely but sometimes you have to accept it and give credit to your opponent."
