Gary Neville admits being ‘selfish’ with his comments on Man City boss Pep Guardiola

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Gary Neville admitted he selfishly wishes Pep Guardiola would have departed Manchester City by now - and he doesn't believe their current struggles will last.

The reigning Premier League champions are currently experiencing a rare winless streak of six games – a situation unheard of in Guardiola's tenure.

Following a shocking Champions League draw where City squandered a 3-0 lead to Feyenoord, Guardiola faced media scrutiny over apparent self-inflicted injuries to his face amidst this unusual period of difficulty.

Neville insisted that despite their rough patch, he really hoped the legendary manager would've moved on and not signed his recent two-year contract extension. "Something has changed, I think; we all felt quite like this may have been his last year, maybe one more maximum, but certainly not two more years," said Neville on the It's Called Soccer podcast.
