Pep Guardiola: FIFA and UEFA don't think about whether a player lives or dies
On Tuesday night, local time, Manchester City will face Barcelona in pre-season, but Manchester City still have 13 key players who have not returned, and Guardiola said that if he does not think about the players, they will be exhausted.
'We've got players who come back late, not just against Manchester United [Community Shield], but also against Chelsea [in the first round of the Premier League], Ipswich Town. At the beginning of the season we try not to drop points and we have some players who are not there because they have to rest. ”
"If big bodies like FIFA, UEFA and the Premier League don't think about the players, the manager has to think about them, otherwise they're going to be exhausted. There are too many competitions, which is why it is necessary to give them three weeks or a month off, but the competitions are already scheduled and you have to adapt. ”
"There is no solution and there will be no solution because no one intends to find a solution. The club has to travel all over the world to showcase our brand and let fans on other continents see our players and we have to adapt. ”
