Dani Alves says Pep Guardiolas coaching is better than sex, but the Manchester City manager disagrees
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has given a hilarious response to Dani Alves claim that the Spaniards coaching is better than sex.The Brazilian defender, who played under the boss figuratively at Barcelona, made his bold claim in a new documentary,Take the Ball, Pass the Ball, about Peps tenure at the Camp Nou.3Alves, now at Paris Saint-Germain, was part of Guardiolas dominant Barca side which won 14 trophies in his four years in charge and clearly loved his time working with the revered coach.Guardiola was quizzed about his former players comments during his press conference ahead of Sundays highly-anticipated Manchester derby against Man United and was quick with his reply.The City manager joked: I prefer the sex!Guardiola has worked wonders with his star-studded City side and its clear he is a very popular coach with his players anyone who has seen Amazons All or Nothing series can attest to that.3

But the boss admits that has not always been the case, and with one player in particular Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who had a big falling out with the manager during his brief spell in Spain.I can see a huge list who are on the opposite side, a list where they love me a lot, like Dani, the Man City boss added.They have another side from Sweden and other places where they don’t like me too much.Normally it happens when people don’t play regularly they are not big fans. We try to convince them – sometimes yes, sometimes no.3
