Former Bayern Munich defender criticizes Guardiola’s people skills

Medhi Benatia admitted Pep Guardiola was a master tactician, however, has questioned his people skills. Benatia played under Guardiola for two years while at Bayern Munich. Guardiola signed Benatia from Roma for £22m, but the player claims they were never friends. The defender is now at Qatar club Al-Duhail, while Guardiola manages Manchester City. “It's my opinion that many share: Guardiola is someone who does not attach much importance to human relationships,” Benatia told Radio Monte Carlo “He says it is because he has been disappointed in the past.  He said to me: "I bought you, I wanted you. You have this quality and the other quality. I need this, I will teach you this and that, you are here to do what I say, but we are not here to be friends."'  “I just left Rome with Rudi (Garcia). We weren't friends, but we had a great relationship,” Benatia continued. “But with Pep, no. He is the boss, he is the one who decides, he is the one who tells you how to play.  I said to him spontaneously: "You bought me for 30 million, so I have quality. If you took me to change me, you have to look for someone else."'  Source- Daily Mail Join us on Telegram!
