Pep Guardiola, manager of Manchester City, has singled out the behavior of England international Jack Grealish.
After a brilliant 2022-23 year with Manchester City punctuated by the English and European championship titles, Jack Grealish was penalized for his behavior this season. At a press conference, coach Pep Guardiola explained in more detail the decision to relegate the English attacking midfielder to the bench.
“He’s the same player, he has the same manager and our way of playing hasn’t changed,” said the Spaniard in comments relayed by the BBC. It’s just the way he behaved. That’s all the difference. I said from day one that we needed him, he added. He has a special quality for our team. But it all depends on him. I hope he succeeds in his last three months. »
The high level does not wait
The former Barça coach also underlined the high level requirement. “I can’t give the players three or four games to find their rhythm. They must find the rhythm to play 20 minutes or 90 minutes, warns Guardiola. At the top level, the team doesn’t expect you to be fit. »
And added: “You can’t give someone three or four matches to be in good shape. What about the ten players who aren’t playing? Do they deserve not to play? You have to observe the training and all the little details. »
