Manchester City and Chelsea .. Guardiola hopes to correct his record with Tuchel

Spanish coach Josep Guardiola hopes to correct his recent record against his German counterpart Thomas Tuchel, when he leads his team, Manchester City, the defending champion, against its host Chelsea today, in the sixth stage of the English Football League.

Before the German came to Chelsea, Guardiola did not lose against him, but last season he bowed to him three times, including the Champions League final.

For a long time, Guardiola was Tuchel's teacher, but after a varied career with Mainz, Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain, and now Chelsea, Tuchel made a name for himself and began to narrow the differences with Pep.

Since assuming his position at the West London club in early 2021, he has outdone a coach who has always considered him a role model.

And if in his childhood he was a fan of Ajax Amsterdam, and his coach Louis van Gaal, or Barcelona with the Dutch flying Dutchman Johan Cruyff, and Arsenal with French Arsene Wenger, but Tuchel admitted last March “when I began to understand football more, there was Pep and Barcelona.” .

"Pep taught me everything: we can win everything if we play well, win everything and stay humble and elegant, attack while maintaining a strong defense, and do all this with graduate players in the center of the formation."
