He said as per 90min:

“Why did I defend the club and the people? It’s because I work with them.
“When they are accused of something I ask them: ‘tell me about that’. They explain and I believe them. I said to them: ‘If you lie to me, the day after I am not here’. I will be out and I will not be your friend anymore.
“I put my faith in you because I believe you 100% from day one and I defend the club because of that. When you put something here [sponsor] it’s overpaid, but other [clubs] the money comes from the USA but the money is correct, even if it’s higher.
"We have to deal with that, we have to fight with that. As always I am a big fan to support this organisation, no doubt.”

Guardiola aims subtle jab at Jose Mourinho

Sports Brief earlier reported that Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has aimed a subtle jab at his 'old enemy' José Mourinho on the back of his side's painful Champions League exit.

Guardiola has come under intense backlash following his side's inability to reach the finals of the Champions League.

His detractors reckon that per the monies invested in his squad he should have been able to annex the coveted European trophy, which the owners of Man City have craved since the takeover in 2008.
