Pep is a great manager who sees football in another way. He lives football and breathes football. The way he thinks about the game is completely different to other managers.
Football is magic for me: it is a special feeling every time I walk out on to the pitch and touch the ball. That is how I would define what magic is.
I have respect for Pep and what he won, and what he did for football because he changed some mentalities in football.
You cannot compare Pep to any Brazilian coach. If you put all Brazilian coaches together, you would get Pep. One has motivational skills, another is tactically strong. But Pep has it all.
Pep is a modern coach, he's intelligent, brave, likes football and always has the players on his side. He knows a lot about football, but Mourinho's success in all countries where he has been confirms him as the best.
I like many things in English football - everyone lives and breathes it here. Of course, that doesn't mean I don't like Spanish football.
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Pep always keeps inventing new things. He is magic. I hope he can win the Champions League with City.
Manchester United breathes football.
Bondy is a city that breathes football.
Torino is a city that breathes football.
Touch is the magic wand of intimacy. Love is keeping in touch.
I want to be magic. I want to touch the heart of the world and make it smile. I want to be a friend of elves and live in a tree. Or under a hill. I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don't want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic.
Look, I'm a coach, I'm not Harry Potter. He is magical, but in reality there is no magic. Magic is fiction and football is real.
Working under Pep Guardiola, a chance like that doesn't come along too often. That's no disrespect to Mauricio Pochettino, but the people that Pep has worked with grow as players.
Pep Guardiola had some great clashes with Klopp in German football. They know each other well.
