Previously, coach Mourinho reacted to coach Pep Guardiola’s comments about the number of Premier League titles he had won: “Pep said that he has won 6 Premier League titles, and I have won 6 Premier League titles. 3 championships, but I won fairly and cleanly. If I lose, I want to congratulate my opponent because they are better than me. I don’t want to win with 150 lawsuits.”

Immediately afterwards, coach Pep Guardiola responded: “If I offended him, I’m very sorry. But it was just a joke. The truth is that he has 3 championships, and I have 6 titles. This is the truth.”
However, coach Mourinho cannot sit still in front of his opponent’s arguments. Before the Fenerbahce Club match against Athletic Bilbao in the 6th round of the Europa League at 10:30 p.m. on December 11, the 61-year-old Portuguese coach spoke again.
He said: “Pep and I used to work together (at Barcelona Club), we love each other. I don’t want Man City to be relegated. But I want justice. Small teams can be fined under FFP (Financial Fair Play) exceeding the spending limit of only 5 or 10 million euros. I also suffered because of this limit when working at AS Roma.
Regarding the upcoming opponent Athletic Bilbao, coach Mourinho expressed: “At EURO, everyone talks about Yamal (Lamine Yamal, 17-year-old Barcelona player). This boy is a great guy, but personally I like Nico Williams is better (the Athletic Bilbao player plays very well with Spanish team Lamine Yamal). I hope Nico Williams will come to Real Madrid.”
Meanwhile, coach Pep Guardiola and Man City face a serious crisis with a series of conceding 21 goals in 6 losses, 2 draws and only 1 win in the last 9 matches. Man City is about to meet Juventus at 3:00 a.m. on December 12 in the 6th round of the Champions League to regain victory and improve 20th place on this tournament’s rankings.
Coach Pep Guardiola and Man City face many difficulties
At the same time, according to the British press, Man City is about to face sanctions from the Premier League with more than 150 lawsuits accusing them of financial fraud for many years. If found guilty, Man City could be relegated and have the championships won during the violation period revoked.
According to coach Pep Guardiola, if Man City is relegated, he will still continue to lead the team with the contract just extended until June 2027 without hesitation.
He also confided: “After my contract with Man City ends, I will not coach any other club. I’m not talking about the long-term future, but after I leave the team and go to a club in another country.” different and doing the same thing as now is impossible. Being able to work in a national team is something that can make a difference.”
