Pep Guardiola Is My Football Father – Bernardo Silva

Manchester City captain Bernardo Silva has said that Pep Guardiola is his football father. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

Hailing the Spaniard for creating a brilliant Manchester City team over the years, Silva noted that Pep is the reason the club won so much.

Bernardo added that receiving a guard of honour against Aston Villa is a moment he won’t forget for the rest of his life.

His words, “Pep’s the reason we won so much.

He was at the wheel, making the decisions and creating this monster of a team that was not only successful for one or two seasons, but for a very long time.

On a personal level, he’s my father in football.”

WOW.

Pep Guardiola Sala is a Spanish professional football manager and former player who is currently managing Premier League club Manchester City. Guardiola is the only manager to win the continental treble twice, the youngest to win the UEFA Champions League, and he also holds the records for the most consecutive league games won in La Liga, the Bundesliga, and the Premier League. He is considered to be one of the greatest managers of all time.

Guardiola has played for and advocated on behalf of the Catalonia football team. Between 1995 and 2005, he played seven friendly games for Catalonia.

Under Guardiola’s predecessor Frank Rijkaard, Barcelona were known for a 4–3–3 with plenty of flair with Ronaldinho being the centre point of the attack. Under Guardiola, however, the team became more disciplined with a greater focus on possession and a disciplined and aggressive pressing style.

Guardiola was born to Dolors and Valentí. He has two older sisters and a younger brother, Pere, a football agent. He is an atheist. Guardiola met his wife Cristina Serra when he was 18. They married on 29 May 2014.
