Guardiola: It s third in a difficult season and never giving up, perhaps more meaningful than four consecutive Premier League titles

June 5th News Since 2017, Guardiola has encountered a championship-free season for the first time. In an interview with Reuters, he reflected on this and talked about related topics.

About Missing the Championship

When I lose, I get very angry and my food becomes hard to eat. I don't need to eat a lot because I need to feel that anger.

Regarding only third place in the Premier League, happiness and success are often measured by championships, but this is actually a problem. I won't judge myself or my team because of the quality of a season. Perhaps being third in a difficult season and never giving up is more meaningful than winning four consecutive Premier League titles.

Regarding whether I coach genius

Do you think I feel special because I have won many championships? No! Stop kidding! I think those doctors who save lives and those who invent penicillin are real geniuses. Am I a genius? Forget it!

About how to face failures

Success depends on how many times you stand up from a fall. Fall, stand up again...this is the greatest success.

The relationship between losers and successful people is boring, and it is even more interesting to see the losers' reactions in post-match interviews. This is when you can really learn something.

Regarding the pressure on being a head coach, no one pointed a gun at my head and forced me to choose this profession. This is my own choice. No one in the football world can win forever, it is simply impossible. We must accept failure, learn from it and prepare for the future.
