Pep Guardiola asks the fans to support the team if there is nothing more important, there are two home games
2023-05-06 13:03Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has urged fans to cut short celebrations for the coronation of Charles III to support the team against Leeds on Saturday. Manchester City are only five games away from a three-peat and currently lead Arsenal by one point, but Arsenal have already played an extra game. Charles III will attend the coronation at Westminster Abbey and take part in an air show at Buckingham Palace at 2.30pm. Guardiola is very concerned about the coronation, but he hopes that supporters will come to the game for Leeds United, which will be managed by Sam Allardyce.
Guardiola said: "Come and support us tomorrow at 3pm if you have nothing better to do. There are a lot of important things in this country but anyway, if you have nothing more important to do, come on. Help us because we need you. We have two home games, against Leeds and Chelsea, and we need our men."
Talking about the players, Guardiola said: "There is no time left now, we have to give our all; the game is very close, close to the end of the Premier League and the season. We have an important game and we have to face a strong opponent. ... Yesterday we saw Brighton beat Manchester United and they played brilliantly."
Kevin Phillips, who joined from Leeds United, has not started since last summer. Guardiola said the focus was on the midfielders proving themselves: "It's about the players. They have to convince themselves and the team, not just because I say something. They have to earn my trust, not just Phillips. , all must be, their performance."
Guardiola also said: "I will not complain about Phillips, because when you don't play a lot of time, it is difficult to maintain the rhythm of the game. I have worked with John (Stones) for seven years and Rodri for five years. Years or six years. I don't have to tell them anything, just fine-tuning the details."
