Gael Clichy praises Pep Guardiola’s impact at the Etihad Stadium

Since the arrival of Pep Guardiola to Manchester City, there have been a number of changes that the Spanish manager has implanted to his fairly new squad with dietary restrictions and not being able to use wifi on certain places of the training grounds, these are just a few of the things that Guardiola has placed to his team and Gael Clichy has praised Pep Guardiola as the 31 year old French player said:


“He’s an ideal manager for any kind of player. The goalkeeper needs to be better with their feet, the centre-backs are improving, the full-backs are important, the centre midfield – he said something like if he could play 11 midfielders, he would play them, so I guess for a midfielder it’s unbelievable’’

Clichy on title race

Manchester City defender Gael Clichy believes that Manchester City will make it to the end this season.


He said that there would be no repeat of last season’s performance and believes that the club has the necessary players to make it until the end of the season.

PEP GUARDIOLA 2-3-5 FORMATION MASTERCLASS

Going by the Premier League games so far, this season promises excitement, with top quality managers in various clubs vying for glory.


The first round of games showed the quality of Man City boss Pep Guardiola. The tactical variety was effective as he deployed a rare 2-3-5 formation, using the players available in the best possible way. He is known to be one of the most creative managers in the modern era and he showed it in his first game in charge.

GAEL CLICHY LIKELY TO RETAIN SPOT AHEAD OF NEW SEASON

Gael Clichy is reported to be likely retained for the coming season to help the likely change in central defenders.

GAEL CLICHY SET TO REMAIN IN MAN CITY NEXT SEASON

Gael Clichy is believed to remain at the club next season as newly appointed coach Pep Guardiola resumes at the club.


The tactician is asking for a total overhaul of the current squad and Clinchy was initially among those who might lose his first team action, if he remains at the club but indications as the season ended show that the right back might just have a spot on Guardiola’s team.

The player struggled at some point in the season with consistency. Kolarov was Clichy’s competition but lacked that attribute that used to make him indispensable. The Sky Blues defense section had one issue or the other all season but Clichy was able to manage a decent performance despite struggling with defensive errors at some points in the league.

CLICHY LIKELY TO STAY

Gael Clichy is reported to be likely to remain at the club despite the flurry of planned changes to the first team. Pep Guardiola has not yet made any official comments on who would remain at the club going into next season.

He recently signed Ilkay Gundogan from Borussia Dortmund and there are other deals going on in the background. Guardiola would need to do a lot of work in the defence which is believed to be their weakest link last season.

GAEL CLICHY HAILS TEAMMATE, KEVIN DE BRUYNE

Manchester City player, Gael Clichy hails team mate, Kevin De Bruyne for his impressive performances since returning from injury.

When a team wins the best men celebrate. That’s what happened when Man City won over Aston Villa.

The French left back was counted among the stars. Gael on the other hand stated that he believed that the squad was ready to win the Premier League crown. If that happens, it would certainly be a win in a time span of five years.

Pictures of Gael and Nicolas Otamendi are all over the portals. Gael is definitely one of the star players of Manchester City, a team that has a good season so far. The team has definitely finished the seasons of Premier League successfully this year.

DID ROONEY SPEECH WIN IT FOR UNITED?

With Manchester United scoring the victory over their rival team City, it’s reported that their team was inspired by a heroic speech given by the currently injured captain Wayne Rooney.

While Rooney has been out of the game for quite a while now, he still seeks to inspire his team and lead them to victory through words.

Clichy wants Manchester City to be more clinical

Manchester City along with Leicester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are the current clubs in the Premier League that are positioned in the top 4 spots of the English League.

Manuel Pellegrini and his men could’ve been in pole position if they hadn’t dropped points against: Everton, West Ham United and Leicester City, these are all of the clubs that Manchester City has not been able to finish things off and win and have had to settle with a draw in each game.
