The head coach of Manchester City, Josep Guardiola, criticized the English Premier League for scheduling his team's penultimate match just 72 hours after the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace, amid a tense battle for a Champions League spot.
Josep Guardiola (photo: gettyimages.com)- We have been fighting these situations for nine years, every season - and nothing changes. On Tuesday evening we will play against one of the most intense, physically durable, straightforward, and powerful opponents in the Premier League - Bournemouth, who are battling for a place in the Europa League or qualification for the Conference League. It will be difficult.
We constantly play on Wednesdays and then on Saturdays. People say the schedule is due to television, more viewers, etc. Last year, there were more views for another match, not ours. They are tired of watching us, - Guardiola told reporters.
