Guardiola cancels youth training young player s tour of the Club World Cup, worrying about affecting morale

Pull Troll Network On June 26, Manchester City coach Guardiola temporarily canceled his plan to lead 10 youth training players to the United States to participate in the Club World Cup. Behind this decision is Guardiola's comprehensive consideration of the team's lineup management and player morale.

As Manchester City introduces new players such as Vittor Rees, Echeviri, Savignho and Husanov in the transfer market, the team's lineup has expanded rapidly. At present, Manchester City has 27 players going to the Club World Cup with the team. Including Kovasic, who is absent due to injury, and Gallish and McCarty elsewhere, the lineup is extremely large. There are only seven weeks left before the start of the Premier League season, and such a complicated lineup needs to be streamlined.

Guardiola has always preferred a compact and efficient team structure. In the original plan, although the 10 youth training young players would go to the United States with the team, they were very likely to be unable to enter the competition list and could only train during the game but could not appear. Guardiola is worried that this arrangement will put the morale of the unselected young players, which will adversely affect the overall team atmosphere.

From the perspective of the rules of the game, Manchester City's lineup composition also faces challenges. Although the team's lineup meets the Premier League regulations, in the Champions League, the team failed to meet the standards due to too many foreign players and insufficient local players. By the rules, the club can only register up to 17 foreign players in the Champions League, which complicated the registration of new players.

At the same time, Manchester City's transfer business is about to usher in major adjustments. Basketball director Begiristan will leave after the game, after which Viana will take the helm alone. Given the current situation of the team, subsequent transfer work may mainly revolve around player sales, so as to optimize the lineup and ensure that the team remains competitive in multiple fronts in the new season.
