‘It’s our job’, Blunt Pep Guardiola forcing his Man City strugglers to sleep at training ground on Christmas Day PEP GUARDIOLA has revealed that his Manchester City side will be staying overnight at the club's training ground on Christmas Day.
City's stars were given time to spend with their families earlier in the week and were able to spend Christmas morning and afternoon with their loved ones before heading to the Etihad Campus for their evening training session later in the day.
And Guardiola is making sure that he doesn't break the usual pre-match routine by ensuring his players spend the night at the training ground prior to the 12:30pm kick off at the Etihad Stadium.
It's common practice for squads to get together on Christmas day, especially when playing on Boxing Day.
The Spanish gaffer told the media that his struggling squad will be spending the night at the facilities ahead of their clash with Everton on Boxing Day.
