Ederson is out, replaced by Stefan Ortega. Guardiola added, 'He's not ready for tomorrow. I don't know when he'll be back.'

Rodri, John Stones, Nathan Ake, and Erling Haaland are also missing. Guardiola said, 'Haaland won't be ready for the next games. Stones and Ake are getting better but not yet.'

Goodison Park's final match for City is a special one. Guardiola said, 'It's so special, like many of the old traditional stadiums in England. The atmosphere is fantastic.'

Guardiola enjoyed a free week without Champions League games. He said, 'I enjoy the games. They've been nice. It's a motivation to fight for qualification.'

Guardiola is confident City's position could be worse. He said, 'We could be in a much lower position. It's in our hands.'
