When Lionel Messi has the ball ‘nobody knows what will happen’

Pep Guardiola, manager of Manchester City, beat Wednesday’s game against PSG for the Champions League.

Pep Guardiola, Manchester City manager, assured that he cannot tell his players what he is going to do Lionel Messi, but that he is happy with the level that the Argentine is showing and that it will be nice to face him.

Manchester City will host Paris Saint Germain this Wednesday with the need to add a point to sign their pass to the knockout stages of the Champions League.

I can’t tell my players what Leo is going to do, but the same thing happens with Neymar, with Mbappé or with Di María. Each player can be a star in any other team in the world and here you have all four, ”Guardiola said at a press conference.

“With Messi it’s very difficult, because sometimes he has the ball and he doesn’t even know what he’s going to do. Imagine trying to find out yourself. There are players that you can identify if they are going to go left or right. When he has the ball, nobody knows what will happen”He added.

“But I like to see that he continues to play and the level he is at. It’s going to be nice to face him ”, he pointed out about a Messi who already scored them in the first leg and who this weekend scored his first goal in the French League against Nantes. (D)
