1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 12th News Guardiola was interviewed by DAZN and talked about Manchester City’s performance this season’s worse than expected, and said that if he was in the Royal Saints early, he would be dismissed.
Guardiola said: “Considering our performance this season, if I were in Spain, I wouldn’t even lead the team in October, November and December. If I were in Barcelona or Real Madrid, they would have fired me long ago.
“But here, that’s not a problem, you have to be a little patient.
“Look at Ancelotti, who won the Champions League and La Liga four days ago, but he has now left office to coach Brazil.” (Original English: “Look at Carlo Ancelotti,” he added. “He won the Champions League and LaLiga four days ago and now he’s off to coach in Brazil.”)
Editor’s note: Guardiola’s tone is quite exaggerated. Here, four days may be a metaphor for Ancelotti’s recent success at Real Madrid, but still dismissed.
