Back in the mid-late 90s I absolutely loved Guardiola as a player. He was astonishing, way better than Xavi I'd say, one of the all time great central midfielders. When he left FCB I was praying he came to us, I saw him as the new Ossie.
The turnaround is astonishing, I can't think of an equivalent. As a manager I thought yeah, really good, but he's fortunate with the clubs he gets, he's no Brian Clough. My profound dislike started with his Spainophobia/Madridophobia, calling Spain a "police state", his fucking hypocrisy when he was taking tens of millions from an actual slave state.
Then the "Harry Kane club" shit. I don't remember any manager, however dislikeable, saying something so directly insulting. Whatever you might think of Wenger or Ferguson, for example, they would never have said the half of that in a million years. Nor Klopp, nor any manager ever in Spain, even given the hatred between Madrid-FCB-Atleti or Betis-Sevilla...
And now this.
Vile fucking cunt. I know a totally unfounded rumour about him from a completely unreliable failed wannabe journo source, wanna hear it?
