Pedro is set to be reunited with his former boss at Camp Nou this weekend when Chelsea FC take in a trip to the Etihad Stadium. Pedro worked with the Catalan tactician during his time at Barcelona and considers him to be one of the very best in the business.
Pedro is expecting a tough test against the man who handed him his Barca debut in 2008: “He was the best for me. He put me in the first team. You could straight away see Pep was an amazing coach. I won titles, we played great football – and he went to Bayern and now City, and won more titles,” Pedro told the Daily Express.
“He is complete as a coach. He was a player, so he understands players, but he is complete tactically, and very good at motivation.”
Pedro added on the targets for a team already through to the Carabao Cup final, where they will face Guardiola’s City: “We are still alive in four competitions. “It is good to be in a final. In the league it could be better, and against City it will be tough.”
