It is just not the style of play but you get to see a different dimension of the player. I was discussing with a sports expert on Sunday and I told him something.

If you think Harry Kane is a high quality player, expect him to become fiercer under Guardiola.

Jack Grealish has a knack for creating chances. He will create more and they will result in more goals. You will get to appreciate him more than how people think he is not worth the amount.

Same was said when we bought the likes of Cancelo and Walker. Under Guardiola, it led to people saying that the reason Guardiola succeeds because of how high the quality of the players are. Forgetting his systematic inputs improve their consistency.
Harry Kane is a quality player we know... No be say we think. No question
He is already a fierce striker, football does not need Guardiola to make him "fiercer"
Let Guardiola buy Tammy Abraham for 40m pounds, and make a "fierce" striker out of him, make him his no 9 and win the league
Then we will recognize him as a genius.
He can't keep buying players like Kane and Grealish and you come here to tell us how he is going to improve them

Anderlecht have said new signing Joshua Zirkzee, who has Nigerian and Dutch nationalities, from Bayern Munich will be a quality addition.

Striker Zirkzee, 20, has signed a season-long loan deal with no option to buy.

He is a direct replacement for Lukas Nmecha, who top scored for the Brussels club last season on loan from Manchester City.

Anderlecht sports director Peter Verbeke said he is pleased to get a player with “enormous potentials”.

“Joshua is a young striker with enormous potential,” he said.

“This is in line with our philosophy to guide him further in his development and at the same time achieve results.



“Joshua can hold up the ball, he is good in combination play and has good individual action.

“In this way we are once again adding extra quality to our squad.”

Zirkzee said he got off well with coach Vincent Kompany from the first phone call.

“After a phone call with Vincent Kompany there was an immediate click,” he revealed.

“I got a lot of confidence from the club and the playing style and the project appeal to me very much.

“I am ready to contribute to the team and help the club achieve their targets.”

Guardiola already proved himself when he let the likes of Deco and Ronaldinho leave the Barcelona squad and still got them play the best football in the history of the game. Making the likes of young academy players like Pedro and Busquets to form the crust of the team. He signed Pique who was a regular bencher at Manchester United and turned him into one of the best defenders in the history of the game.

So he has done it. You saw him turn a young Kimmich into a legendary player. What of him signing Thiago Alcantara to Bayern and the rest was history. Or you did not see Guardiola sign a young Zinchenko, change his position and he was a big part of an English Premier League winning team.

Manchester City is fighting to dominate football. It will prove negative to start proving himself continuously by signing Tammy Abraham to make you happy.

Guardiola's talent is undeniable. Did you not see his performances this pre-season with the likes of Palmer, McAtee, Edozie, Knight, Romeo Lavia, Gomez and a host of others that were so impressive.

Doing it is not the problem. Staying at the very top requires high quality additions and does not take anything away from the quality of the manager.

What I am talking about is what makes this transfer interesting. Watching Guardiola improve players of very high quality. It will make an interesting watch.

No he doesn't. He only used him there due to injuries. When the injury crises was over he went back to his usual position even after he showed he could be an option further up the pitch.

If the claim that Guardiola improved Sterling was valid when he was in form, does Guardiola also take the blame for his poor form last season? Sterling by the way was phenomenal for Liverpool doing the same things he did at Man city.

I think you're one of the very few people in football that would debate Guardiola improving Sterling. Sterling was quality at Liverpool but was not phenomenal. He became phenomenal under Guardiola.

"Raheem's a player who played on instinct, a lot of ability, and you're only seeing the best of him now. He has worked on it himself but it’s because of Pep Guardiola. Guardiola has got him in a mindset to know the game better and you see a massive difference. It’s knowing the right time to do things and Guardiola is the best at teaching that, in my opinion."...Wayne Rooney.

Note, massive difference.

As for last season, I don't think Raheem Sterling fell off. It was a case of Phil Foden overshadowing him that made Guardiola drop Sterling.

Hanibal:

Louder please!
Guardiola fan boys will be hyping him as if he is some programmer who opens players' heads to insert new codes.

If he is such a genius... Why does he keep buying high quality players?
Why can't he buy Ajagun and turn him to a world class midfielder?

Like seriously?

Guardiola has won the premier league, three times in four seasons.

Won the Capital one cup four times in four seasons.

Won the FA Cup once.

Got Manchester City to the Champions League final for the first time and Hanibal thinks he is not a genius.

See what I am saying? No one talks about the improved buying power of the selling club. Reports have it that Aston Villa just landed Danny Ings. Which I consider a massive signing from Southampton.

PUMA has terminated their contract with Nigerian athletics effective immediately. They donated $2.7 million USD in kit and offered to compensate all of our medal winners. Instead, the Federation proceeded to use funds to purchase substandard kit from another supplier (as a pretext for embezzling funds of course). This zoo's collapse is imminent.

In recent years, who should I not rate?

Is it Sancho or John Stones or Kyle Walker or Phil Foden? Is it Raheem Sterling or Mason Mount?

I rate Lingaard, Rashford. I think Declan Rice and Phillips are brilliant talents. I think Jack Harrison is a fantastic talent. I see Luke Shaw as brilliant. I am blown by Aaron Wan Bissaka.

So tell me who is over hyped? Is it Danny Ings? Redmond?

Grealish not having Champions League experience has to do with his club and not his talent. Players like Riqui Puig and Pedri are not as good as him but they have Champions League experience.
