Neil Warnock was here the other week to interview Pep Guardiola. And then again on Thursday to observe training, at Guardiola’s invite. And then again on Friday night, seemingly for reasons unknown, sat next to Guardiola’s closest confidante.
The guy cannot stay away and was apparently something of a celebrity at training, Erling Haaland begging for a picture.
Warnock and Guardiola get along famously in what would appear an unlikely kinship yet then, at 54, Manchester City’s manager is inching towards one of the old guard these days too and views the ideals of the game in much the same way as his elders.
