On October 7, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola expressed that he enjoys international breaks as they allow the entire team to catch their breath during the intense season.
With the international break approaching, the Premier League will enter another hiatus. When speaking about the international break, Guardiola said, “I like it because I can use this time to fully rest and return to the Premier League with full energy. Moreover, everyone in the team, including physiotherapists and doctors, can take a good break during this period and prepare for the upcoming season.”
Guardiola also used Ferguson as an example: “When I first came to Manchester City, Brian Kidd (former Manchester City assistant coach) informed me that Sir Alex Ferguson used the international break to allow team members to fully rest. I’ve also adopted his experience. Because when coaching in the Premier League, there is no breathing room from December to March, and the team is always facing a high-intensity schedule.”
