Without that competition, if we had just one competition to play in, I could play with the same 11 or same 12.“Now everyone is involved. The players don’t know who will play against Burton. Then after four days we have another final at home to Wolves.Guardiola insists he would rather be fighting on multiple fronts than solely focusing on one competition, insisting that momentum can be applied across all competitions.He added: I prefer it, definitely.“I like to be in the four competitions as far as possible. When Wigan put us out of the FA Cup last season I was sad. But since I arrived, the first season in the Carabao Cup we played against United and played with a lot of young players, the same the second season, the same the third season, that’s what has happened.“I take the cups seriously. Against Rotherham, for example, we played with nine players who didn’t play against Liverpool and the nine were a good selection. It was perfect for the rhythm for Kevin (De Bruyne), (Ilkay) Gundogan, Nico (Otamendi), Kyle (Walker) – perfect.”
