PEP GUARDIOLA made two ridiculous comments during the last week that illustrate everything that is wrong with Premier League elites.
Don’t get me wrong, Guardiola deserves our respect and adulation for what he has achieved at Manchester City, Barcelona and Bayern Munich. We all marvel at the exhibition of football his teams produce.
But I’d love to see him try managing an EFL club to see how he’d get on.
When he whinged about his precious City lambs forced to make a two-hour 123-mile coach journey home from Newcastle after Wednesday’s Carabao Cup tie rather than fly, I wondered how he might cope if he was in charge of clubs like Exeter and Carlisle?
