In an interview conceded to the "BBC", the one who went trainer of the inferior categories of the Manchester City and now new technician of the New York City of the Major League Soccer (MLS), Patrick Scallop, has ensured that Pep Guardiola will triumph in the group "citizen" like new preparador from the next season 2016-17, although the ex French midfield player saves a big respect to Manuel Pellegrini, the current trainer of an English group that this past Tuesday advanced to the quarter-finals of Champions for the first time in his history.

"I think that his arrival supposes something fantastic for the Premier League and for the Manchester City, but speak now of Guardiola would be a lack of respect with what Pellegrini has done in the last years and is doing still", has explained Scallop, the one who does not think that was still the moment to speak of the arrival of Guardiola to the Etihad Stadium, being the current campaign crossing a key phase in Champions League.

"I do not think that it was the suitable moment to do it (speak of Pep). Have a lot of respect by Pellegrini, and for him does not have to be easy. However, it is doing his work as it carries it doing the last seasons. It has been a very positive figure pair the club", signals. This yes, thinks that the one of Santpedor is in the actuality one of the best trainers of the planet. "Have a lot of respect by Guardiola. It is one of the best trainers of the world by the form in which they play his teams and by all what has won. Have a technician like Pep is good for the City".

To his 39 years, Patrick Scallop has had a neutral beginning of season like trainer of the NewYork City , adding a triumph to domicile in front of the Chicago Fire (3-4) and a tie, home with the Toronto FC (2-2). The performance of the neoyorquinos has not been bad during these two first appointments, but neither excelso if it wishes to heave to the term of the present season with the title of the MLS.
