The Premier League starts this weekend and all the trainers are making the usual 'Half Day' -day of the media- previous to the start of the competition. And this Friday has spoken Pep Guardiola, technician of the Manchester City, that will look for to improve his first campaign and win the title.  

Further to analyse the aims of the new season -the usual in one aspiring team to all-, Guardiola has wanted to speak of the traspaso of Neymar to the PSG, the most expensive of all time. And it has not criticised it as if they have done it other voices authorised of the football like Monchi or Jean-Michel Classrooms, president of the Lyon.

"Till lately, the ten more expensive signings of the football had made in Spain. And now there are clubs with a greater purchasing power that are investing to win titles. It is logical, are in a new world-wide stage", has related Pep, that directs precisely to one of these clubs, the City, that has beaten records with the signing of Mendy.

The ex Barcelona technician has remembered, precisely, what happened with Dani Alves when fichó by the Barça. "I have lived chapters like this. We pay almost 40 million euros by him and called us crazy, but his performance was more than incredible and the club amortised it perfectly", has argued.

It is thus that Guardiola elogia the signing of the PSG: "they carry to an incredible footballer (Neymar), with some only characteristics that will help them to improve his performance. They will follow aspiring to the Champions, do not have any doubt".

Happy in the City

"I think that the club has to work and listen to his trainer in the suitable moment, but also take his own decisions of future. Anybody knows what goes to happen, all the trainers of the world depend on the results. I go to treat to remain the greater possible time in the club to help to the City to be followed forward and keep in the highest", explained Guardiola.
