Pep Guardiola chooses his favorite signing for the club and it is not Haaland or Julian Alvarez

Manchester City is preparing to face a new UEFA Champions League match. The citizen team is getting better and better. The English team managed to get out of its bad streak in its last match against one of the best teams in the Premier League. Now, the club will seek to begin to ensure its classification to the next round of the Champions League against Young Boys.

One of the issues that has generated a bit of criticism is playing matches on synthetic floors. "It is what it is. If UEFA allows matches to be played here it is because it is in good condition. That is one of the reasons why we never train outside, but this is an exception," declared the Spanish coach. "Grass is better because 99.9% of teams that play at a high level play on grass, otherwise UEFA and FIFA would decide to play on artificial fields. It's common sense, I would say," he added.

And he added: "That's why we travel in the morning so that the players feel how the ball runs, how it moves to the left, to the right, back, forward. That's why. We will try it and the players will know immediately." . The coach was also asked about a player in particular, Manuel Akanji, who has become a starter in the Manchester City team in a short time since his arrival. Something that the coach praised.

What did Pep Guardiola say about Haaland and Alvarez?

"What a signing!. We were so lucky to get him. We moved quickly to sign him. A lovely guy, can play in two/three positions, central defense, but also right-back, holding midfielder. Open minded, so intelligent It's a joy to work with him..." In addition, he talked about the moment he lives in the club, We compete really well in all games, otherwise we wouldn't be close to Spurs [at the top of the Premier League]. Everyone is different; when you start the season after a poor season last time, you give everything..."
