Guardiola unsure if Club World Cup will affect City’s Premier League campaign - Jurgen Klopp has described the event as ‘the worst idea ever implemented in football’ because of concerns over player welfare.

Manchester City ’s Club World Cup campaign has so far gone according to plan. Three wins from three has seen the Blues cruise into the last 16, scoring 13 goals and conceding just two, both of those coming against Juventus in the last group match.

Pep Guardiola says the 5-2 victory over Juventus has been a long time coming after it earned his side Group G top spot in the Club World Cup on Thursday night. "I liked the way we did it," Guardiola said.
