Guardiola Says He Will Be “a god” Next Season

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has predicted that he will be “a god” next season in the Premier League.

The former Bayern Munich and Barcelona boss, finished trophyless for the first time in his managerial career last season, as City finished third 15 points behind league winners, Chelsea.

But the 46-year vowed on Friday: “We will be better next season.

“I know always when you win you are a god and it’s good.”

Guardiola has enjoyed a three-week holiday in Barcelona and says he is ready for pre-season.

“I was so happy in Manchester, being manager there and that’s why I will be so delighted to return on July 10 and start again. I still enjoyed it a lot last season.

“If you don’t win, during the process of 11 months together, you can still enjoy being with your staff and the players and imagining new games and new actions.

“Sometimes it happens that the opponents always play good and can beat us, but the beautiful thing is the process and being there to have fun.”
