EPL, Champions League: Xavi predicts Manchester City’s season under Guardiola

Barcelona legend, Xavi has predicted that manager, Pep Guardiola, will achieve at Manchester City what he did at Barcelona.

Xavi, who played under Guardiola during their time at the Camp Nou, believes that the former Bayern Munich manager will be successful at the Eithad this season.

According to him, Guardiola can win the Champions League trophy and also the Premier League title this term.

Guardiola’s side currently top the Premier League table with 32 points from 12 games and Xavi is expecting the 47-year-old to do well with the Premier League champions.

“Pep will only improve Manchester City,” Express UK quoted Xavi as saying ahead of Man City’s Premier League clash with West Ham this weekend.

“He’s always looking to improve, always looking to better the team.

“The next target will be the Champions League and under him I think they will do it. He built something at Barcelona that will always be remembered in football history – he can do the same in Manchester.”

Xavi added: “In football it’s not just what you achieve but how you achieve it.

“Manchester City are playing great football and I can guarantee that the players will be enjoying training sessions as well as the games.”
