What has Pep Guardiola said?
The Man City manager has aired his concerns about what this summer tournament will do to his team’s campaign next season.
‘I try to not give it some thought, otherwise I will likely be so anxious,’ Guardiola said. ‘We’ll rest the time the Premier League allows us to. And game by game, month by month, we’ll see. And possibly in November, December, January, ask me, Pep.
‘I could say: “So listen, we’re a disaster. We’re exhausted. The World Cup destroyed us.” I don’t know, however it’s the primary time in our life that that’s happened. So we’ll see.
‘So I attempt to be relaxed, to benefit from the days here, the great vibes that we have now, the competition, to attempt to win it. And a very powerful thing, to get better, to seek out or re-find ourselves what we were. That is my predominant goal on this tournament.’
