Guardiola Can Fix Man City Crisis – Figo

Real Madrid great Luis Figo believes Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is capable of resolving the current crisis affecting the club.

Recall that the Citizens have won just once in 11 games after defeat at home to Manchester United on Sunday.

Speaking at a LaLiga function, Figo stated that the Spanish tactician has the technical knowledge to put an end to their poor run of form in the Premier League.

“It’s football. I don’t think Pep has to prove anything because he has won everywhere he has been, he has been the most successful team in recent years, so if he has a less positive streak it has to be overcome.

“Those who understand football know that it can happen, it is a surprise but if the same person always won in football the others would not play, so for me he doesn’t have to prove much.”

Asked if Rodri was a fair winner of the Ballon d’Or, Figo added: “I think so. At the end of the day, the parameters that define who wins, despite it always being a vote by journalists, you have to give the benevolence of his decision. Anyone who is nominated can win.

“Logically, whoever doesn’t win is sad, but I don’t think you have to put value on what the winner has done throughout last season.”
