Manchester City (Man City) coach Pep Guardiola praised Tottenham’s “enemy” coach Anji Postecoglou, saying he is taking football to the next level.
According to the BBC on the 1st (Korea Standard Time), Guardiola praised Postecoglou, who will face off in the 14th round of the Premier League (EPL) at 1:30 a.m. on the 4th at Etihad Stadium in Manchester, England, saying, “We are creating a better soccer world.”
Postecoglou, who took over as Tottenham manager in June, once ranked first in the league with eight wins and two draws in 10 games since the opening of the 2023-2024 EPL.
Guardiola, who led the European treble twice (2008-2009 Barcelona, 2022-2023 Manchester City) for the first time in football history, said, “Coach Postecoglou fully grasped and took control of the team within just three or four months.”
Guardiola said he was particularly impressed by Postecoglou’s courage. 토토사이트
Although Tottenham recently lost three consecutive games, Guardiola said, “We saw how many attack opportunities Tottenham players created and how aggressive they were in each position. It was very impressive,” adding, “The British, including Tottenham fans, will acknowledge how immediate and good he has made a good impact on the league.”
Regarding the 1-4 defeat of Christian Romero and Destiny Udogi in the 11th round of the EPL at home on the 7th, Guardiola said, “Sometimes we face bad moments, but Tottenham still showed dynamic movements.”
Postecoglou achieved “treble” by sweeping the regular league, Scottish Cup (FA) and League Cup on the Scottish professional football stage in the 2022-2023 season.
He has won two consecutive seasons (2021-2022 season, 2022-2023 season), winning the regular league championship, the league cup, and one Scottish Cup championship.
