Barcelona fullback Daniel Alves feels Pep Guardiola will be a success with Manchester City.
Alves spoke about how his former coach at the Camp Nou will go about his business when he arrives in the north of England.
The fullback told The Times: "[He will change] the organisation, the team, the club. [He will want] everything his way, and when you get to a place where they are going to allow that — because in England they respect that — it will be ideal for him.
"It will be difficult because he will have to find the pieces. It was difficult for Guardiola when he left here because he had a philosophy and knew players were going to follow him.
"Elsewhere, they are of a different mentality. If you have a puzzle and cannot find the right pieces, the thing will never fit."
