Gundogan reveals why he prefers Guardiola over Klopp
Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan revealed the reason behind his preference to train with his current coach, Pep Guardiola, about his former coach in Borussia Dortmund and current in Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp. Gundogan played with Klopp from 2011 to 2015, until the departure of the German coach to Liverpool and succeeded in winning the German League Championship in the 2011 season.
Ilkay spoke about his point of view in statements reported by Sky Sports: "Yes, I consider Guardiola the best person I trained with during my football career."
And he continued:
"Perhaps it is easy for me to tell the difference between Guardiola and Clob, because I feel that Pep is tactically the best coach I have ever seen, and this is what I heard from many players who trained under him before me."
"The way Guardiola looks at every detail of the match is amazing," he added. "He tries to fully implement it on the field."
And he continued his remarks: "As for Klopp, as a player you can sacrifice everything for him in matches to give everything you have to win."
And he continued:
"Klopp has a style that gives you confidence when he talks to you and motivates you with the appropriate words before each match. It is difficult to determine who is the best, and I feel that I am a distinguished player because I worked with them throughout my career."
