Pep Guardiola said that he could get fired if Manchester City lose to Real Madrid in the Champions League round of 16.
“I want to win the Champions League. I dream [of it] and I will enjoy preparing for the games against Madrid, to see what we can do and this process, two weeks before, will be the happiest moments of my profession, to imagine what we can do to beat them. If we don’t beat them, OK, come the chairman or the sport director and say, ‘It’s not good enough, we want the Champions League, I’m going to sack you’,\" said Guardiola.
Guardiola also pushed back against measuring a side\'s success only on trophies.
“We give a bad, bad message for the new generation, for our kids, to just count the winner, the trophies to win. You say the season is a disaster but if you win the Champions League it will be exceptional. Why? It is difficult to win it.\"
