The Champions League over for 2022, the major championships not even halfway, international players are starting to have their heads at the 2022 World Cup. Pep Guardiola will not say otherwise, and, better, the Manchester coach said to understand his men.
"I had to tell the players a month ago to be focused, but now it's very close," said the Catalan at a press conference.
We are going to play this weekend and they have to be with their national team the next day.
I'm sure players will have that in mind.
I would be the same in their place.
The Citizens take on Chelsea on Wednesday night in the League Cup before a final lap against Brentford in the Premier League this weekend.
“Playing staff members”
Another concern of Pep, the state in which his players from Qatar will return.
Guardiola takes refuge behind humor.
“It's better not to think about it.
If our internationals are not available, we will have to call on young people from the academy or members of the staff!
