Ex-Real Madrid coach Luxemburgo: Guardiola more marketing than coaching

Former Real Madrid coach Wanderley Luxemburgo is no fan of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.

The Brazilian believes Guardiola is more hype than actual coaching credentials.

"Guardiola is more about marketing than being a coach. He won many titles with Barcelona , but then came Luis Enrique who won the same titles," Luxemburgo told Fox Sports.

"Guardiola went to Bayern Munich, prepared, learned German and managed not to have the same success (as Jupp Heynckes), who won the treble as a 70-year-old.

"Carlo Ancelotti was a master in Milan and Madrid, so I think that Guardiola must start to win with Manchester City to show he is better. Only then will I believe."
