Manchester City Manager Josep Guardiola attended a sports festival in Italy, organized by Gadgetta dello Sport, where he recalled his successes at Barcelona.
"The two times we won the Champions League with Barcelona were seven football players like Shavi, Iniesta, and Valdez, who came to Barca 7 or 8 years ago. It was a combination of stars. Such things happen once in a lifetime. The club had faith in me. I went through the teenage teams. We had the money to buy big players. We also had the best footballer in the world (Lionel Messi). I feel nostalgic (looking at pictures of his success with the team - bg). If after 20 years we still read in the books for us, it will be great. It will mean we have left something behind us, "Guardiola said back in time.
The Catalan also mentioned the importance of Messi. "If the team helps him in the big games, he makes the difference in them. Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo for the past 10 years have scored 50 goals each year. This is not human, "said the specialist who also spoke of his mentor, Johan Cruyff, who" opened his eyes ". "Cruyff helped us understand football differently. We were defeated, and he explained why we did it. The same was true for losses. It made us fall in love with this game. "
