Pep Guardiola is in a title race with his former assistants while his former captain is on his way to glory in another league. Manchester United manager City talks about his influence and how the game has changed. Watch Crystal Palace vs Man City live on Sky Sports from 5pm on Saturday, kick-off 5.30pm.

Toward the end of Pep Guardiola’s career, his time in Europe was over. He bemoaned the change in the game that cost him tactically and literally. “A player like me is extinct,” he announced.

In 2004, the role of wandering playmaker no longer exists. Guardiola knows very little about Andrea Pirlo. But see the Maestro of Milan as the exception who proves the rule. The game continues and requires another quality from the midfield.

“My skills haven’t decreased,” Guardiola explained. “It’s just that football is different now. Playing in the back four now You have to be a ball master, a tackle like Patrick. Vieira or Edgar Davids, if you can pass the same ball, that’s a bonus.”

He is a prophecy in a sense. Claude Makelele will help Chelsea win consecutive Premier League titles. Despite having a role named after him, Guardiola, just two years older than Makelele, would have had an unsuccessful trial for Stuart Pearce’s Manchester City.

In 2022, as he prepares to take his City team up against Crystal. Palace where Vieira coaches Everything turned upside down. It was football that Guardiola described back then that younger readers may not be able to recognize.

The game has changed again. And Guardiola has changed that.

“My physical condition doesn’t allow me to play the games we want to play,” he told Sky Sports.

“Maybe they could give me more vitamins. I can eat better or sleep better. Maybe I’ll be stronger, I don’t know, but I feel like the players at that time their legs were faster.

The physical only increased.

“I think the players take care of them much better than before. Unbelievably good nutrition, much better. Training on the pitch, off the pitch, the gym. Fully monitored 24/7. In those days you play the game and go home. We have no more than 2 physiotherapists, 1 doctor, play the game. less Now you know that every footballer is like a machine. That’s why it’s a little different.”

Still, for the physical potential of modern players. Statistics show that there are even fewer tackles in the Premier League than there were 10 years ago. a man who arrived in England and soon announced that he ‘Not a coach for headers’ met game deal

passed, while at the same time rising and rising That adds almost 50,000 to the Premier League in the 10 years since 2011, the year Guardiola hailed Barcelona with their second Champions League victory over Manchester United. United

His success in showing that there is another way to cover it is easy to forget how far-reaching change is. And now he risks being a victim of that success. Because those inspired by his ideas were born with new powers of their own.

Mikel Arteta, his one-time assistant at City With Arsenal leading the Premier League table, Arteta is doing so thanks in part to the use of former City player Oleksandr Zinchenko as an upside-down full-back.

It’s a tactical concept that would be hard to believe would have been possible – for the player or the coach – if not for Guardiola.

“I don’t know,” Guardiola said with a smile while clearly not wanting to give any credit. But the answer is definitely clear. Arteta has recently been described as This, by former captain Vincent Kompany, was certainly an “an extension of Pep”, so the two men understood how the game needed to be played.

Of course, Kompany’s Burnley stood in the way of Manchester City in the FA quarter-finals. Cup later this month The Clarets are at the top of the Championship. Kompany has changed the way the club plays. They average 64 per cent possession this season.

As for Xavi, he is sailing towards a position as head coach of Barcelona. Isn’t this further evidence of Guardiola’s influence on the game that made him extinct? “I appreciate my ego, thank you, but I’ll say it’s a question for them.”

Perhaps what Guardiola needed as a player later in his career was a coach like Guardiola. He went as far as Mexico in 2005 in search of one game. playing his final game at Dorados de Sinaloa under the generosity of his future City assistant Juanma Lilo.

back then He seems to be an anachronism. a part-time man But sometimes football is just a cycle. Fashions wax and they fade. Guardiola believes the best ideas work in every era.

“I’m pretty sure what worked 20 or 30 years ago in playing like that will work today. Absolutely yes,” he said.

“Not because Arsenal or Burnley or Xavi at Barcelona did that. Football is football since it was created. same line The pitch is the same, it’s not 14 against 14, it’s 11 against 11, how was it?” You read the situation well.

“The pass is always possible, always, that’s 100 per cent, after that it’s the quality of the players up front and so on and so forth, but playing football like they played in the 70s against Brazil or the 80s or 90 You definitely can

“It depends on how the manager feels. The way your team wants to play It’s as simple as that, in 20 years if there is a manager who likes the way Arsenal play. or barcelona Or Burnley or Man City, they, the team will play like that.

Unwilling to claim his place as a key figure connected with Europe’s most successful coach at the moment, Guardiola is on more comfortable grounds when it comes to his own aspirations.

He continues to entertain the idea that if it weren’t for Johan Cruyff, he would have ended up playing in the Spanish third division instead of winning the European Cup at the age of 21.

The coach who ridiculed him for his speed when he first saw him play. Will trust him to direct the competition for the Barcelona dream team.

Speaking to Cruyff in 2016, Guardiola cited his influence on future generations. influence on his players is the sign of true greatness More than any trophies he’s won, is it a view he still holds?

“All I can say is that Johan Cruyff’s influence on me has been immense. That’s the truth.

But as always there is a caveat.

“Meanwhile I am not here to change anything or to influence another generation. It would be very fake. And there are some incredible aspects to being able to play the way they play unlike me.” Control.

“When this happened You have to be reasonable and say, ‘OK, I love seeing my team play the way I want to see it’, that’s the most important thing. And what happened is what happened.

“As for the others, it’s a question for the others.”
