“Fighting for the Champions League Isn’t the Worst Thing” – Guardiola on City’s Tough Season
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has opened up about his team’s rough season and couldn’t resist throwing a light jab at rivals Manchester United.
City, who usually dominate the Premier League, have struggled this time around. They’re no longer in the title race and are battling just to secure a Champions League spot. Right now, they sit in fifth place, with Aston Villa and Chelsea close behind.
Ahead of their upcoming match against Everton, Guardiola told reporters that while the situation isn’t ideal, it could be a lot worse. “Fighting for the Champions League isn’t the worst thing,” he said. “It shows we’ve done some things right over the last few months. People say we’re fourth, but it could’ve easily been 11th, 12th, 13th, or 14th.”
That final remark seemed aimed at United, who are sitting in 14th place after losing 14 out of their 32 games this season.
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
