Pep Guardiola sees Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool as the biggest challenge he has faced in his management career, but says the opposite game to Real Madrid has made him a better coach (more football news).
Manchester City helped the Reds win the name of the 2018-19 Premier League in an exciting race last season, but Guardiola’s appearance ended with 18 problems for his rivals this time.
Klopp is a family enemy on the sidelines, the German has been guilty of Borussia Dortmund’s Guardiola’s tenure at Bayern Munich.
Guardiola has faced many rivals as coach, adding the classic’s mythical clashes with José Mourinho’s Madrid as he passed through Barcelona.
But Catalan looks beyond that Liverpool elegance under Klopp as the biggest impediment he has encountered.
Speaking to DAZN, he said: “The toughest opponent I have faced in my career at this Liverpool last year.
“They ruled all records. When you let yourself be governed and confined to your area, you faint.
“When you dominate them, they find themselves like no one else.
“They’re going back very fast. They’re very strong strategically. Your players have wonderful intellectual strength. [Klopp] is the opponent who let me know how to beat him more. “
But Guardiola claimed that the battles she had had against Madrid bosses such as Manuel Pellegrini and José Mourinho had taken a step forward in their training skills.
“I said that Real Madrid is a very strong team in my career, they have helped me to become a better coach with complicated matches and competitions with José Mourinho, Pellegrini and all the coaches they have,” he added.
“If you ask me which opponent is the hardest to face for me, it’s Liverpool. The first few years when I arrived in England, Liverpool were a little weaker than now and Real Madrid were stronger.
“Now this Liverpool is the toughest I’ve ever met in my training career. “
Guardiola is expected to face known opponents, Los Blancos, next week when City face Madrid in the back leg of his late 16 Champions League matches, which his team led 2–1 in the first leg at Santiago Bernabéu. .
Madrid won 3 consecutive European titles Zinedine Zidane before the Frenchman left his post at the end of the 2017–18 campaign.
He returned to Madrid in March 2019 and took Los Blancos to LaLiga this fourth.
Guardiola is a wonderful admirer of Zidane and adds: “Even if others don’t see me because he’s from Real Madrid, I’m very pleased that things are going well because it’s so smart for football that things go well for others like him. “.
“When he did what he did, winning 3 Champions in a row, winning two League titles at Barca while they, that decade, ruled this festival like no other club, he demonstrated his talent. “
