A Quote by Pep Guardiola

There are teams that wait for you and teams that look for you: Espanyol look for you. I feel very close to their style of football. — © Pep Guardiola
There are teams that wait for you and teams that look for you: Espanyol look for you. I feel very close to their style of football.
Any coach in my era will reference or look at Guardiola's teams. If you look at the style of play, he has had a huge influence on football. And he has innovated it again.
I think players look around and they look at the teams that they'd like to join and it's usually teams that already have good players on those teams.
When you look at the best teams, the teams that make a run at it, they're the healthiest teams.
I tell people in their careers, 'Look for growth. Look for the teams that are growing quickly. Look for the companies that are doing well. Look for a place where you feel that you can have a lot of impact.'
I love watching English football. There are teams in the Premier League that play a style similar to Spanish teams - Arsenal, for example - but in general, it's much quicker; there's so much pace.
But if you look at teams that want to share more revenues, they're teams that don't have a lot on the table. They've long since not had any serious investment in their team.
The cap is a discussion about competitiveness, not about money. It's about trying to bring the top teams down to a level where the midfield teams feel they can compete. The reality is that whatever the level of spend there will always be teams that run at the front and teams that run at the back.
I'm a coach who admires attacking football. I want my teams to look to win.
When you look at coaching in the pros 25-plus years, I have been with rebuilding teams and I have been with championship teams, and so I know all the steps in-between.
I looked at Manchester with more interest when Cristiano was here because it's normal when you have Portuguese players in some teams, you look at them more than other teams.
That's one of the things about the NFL is that you have small-market teams, big-market teams. I feel like the bigger market teams do kind of have an advantage in terms of off-the-field money.
Teams like the Patriots stress situational football moreso than a lot of other teams in the NFL.
I feel that teams with players who are very close end up winning.
You can feel the same thing in football or soccer - that for the best teams in Spain and England, for instance, the public... they're not really going to cheer at all when they play against bad teams unless they do something spectacular. Even if they're winning by a few goals they'll probably just say, "nah." That's normal and they're not excited about it.
I don't agree that there are big teams and small teams in the Premier League. There are just a lot of good teams.
The decisions I've made have not always been the most popular, but when I look back, I want to know I've played for good football teams.
