Pep Guardiola's ex-assistant explains what it would take for him to leave Manchester City

Pep Guardiola's former assistant Domenec Torrent says the coach would consider leaving Manchester City if he felt he no longer had the players on his side. Torrent worked under Guardiola as his no.2 for more than a decade up to 2018, in spells at Barcelona, Bayern Munich and City. Torrent feels the only thing that could change his view is the actions of his City stars. “There are players, I’m telling you, that maybe after three years, they have had enough," Torrent told The Athletic. "They want to relax, earn money at another club with fewer demands. But I think the best players, the true champions, they never get tired of winning and learning. “For me, the best way to avoid these problems is to change two or three players every year; that’s the easiest way for a manager. The key for me is that if you see that the player is not happy, then you have to move them on, no matter who it is. You sense this. As a coach, you notice when the player is getting tired of the message. And if it’s harder and harder to get your message across or it’s getting repetitive, that’s when you consider bringing things to an end." Source: The Mirror
