Rodri on his evolution with Pep
"Pep's influence has been enormous. We are young players reaching the top and you need a guide to tell you how to play at this level, especially in such an important role as a holding midfielder.
Norwich on a bittersweet streak

Manchester City with an advantage to win the title
Manchester City has become one of the most important teams in Europe, since the capital investment by an Arab group, after the long-suffering title in the 11-12 season, City has become a constant champion, with Pep Guardiola as coach, he gave the team the solidity and style of play they needed to make the leap they needed, to get the Champions League, But in order to think about the European title, they need to win the domestic title, Manchester City is the absolute leader with nine points ahead of its closest pursuer which is Liverpool, with fourteen league games without defeat, it is very difficult for any team to defeat them, so apparently only a catastrophic act would keep them away from another Premier League title.
Norwich in the fight against relegation
Norwich is in the penultimate place of the Premier League after twenty-three rounds, the team has only four wins, five draws and fourteen defeats, accumulating seventeen units, the team must go adding units if they want to avoid returning to the lower division, the duels against those involved in relegation are obliged to win, but while these come they must focus on their next rival Manchester City, although the sky blues lead the Premier League, Saturday's game seems to be a very tough test for Norwich as they face the team led by Pep Guardiola, so they must plan a perfect game in defense, but if they want to give a blow and leave the last places they must go for the attack as they are close to get out of the red zone.
Norwich takes on leaders Manchester City
Manchester City and Norwich will face each other this Saturday in what might seem like a routine game for the Citizens but for Norwich it is a difficult test as they are fighting not to be relegated, they recently came out of the bottom of the table and are one point behind seventeenth placed Newcastle, with City's good results it will be a challenge for Norwich to get the win, but the pressure of relegation could give them an extra motivation.
