He told Marca: "Guardiola is the greatest of them all, the only 'scientific', the only Nobel Prize as a coach. He was a revolutionary, coached the most beautiful team in the history of football [Barcelona], went to Germany and changed football culture throughout the country.

"Now for what he is doing in the Premier League, because he has more courage than everyone else."
