“We Have to Win the Game, or We Won’t Continue” – Guardiola on Club Brugge Clash
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has discussed his team’s approach for their crucial Champions League match against Club Brugge on Wednesday, a game that could decide their future in the competition.
So far this season, Manchester City’s performances in the Champions League have been underwhelming.
Ahead of the final group stage match, Guardiola made it clear that City must win if they are to continue their European journey.
“The situation we have is that we have to win the game, and if not, we will not continue in this competition,” Guardiola stated. “But it’s not a problem; it’s an opportunity, a challenge, and we will face it.”
When discussing how City would approach the game, Guardiola stressed the importance of staying calm and composed. “We would like to score a lot in the first 20 minutes, but I don’t think it is going to happen,” he admitted.
“The approach is to read the game we have to play – be completely relaxed, no emotions, and understand the game. I know these types of games require something special.”
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
