Manchester City midfielder Frank Lampard has likened manager Manuel Pellegrini to Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti.
Lampard played for Ancelotti at Chelsea.
He told the Manchester Evening Newsi: "I've a huge amount of respect for him. He has a calm way about him - you respect him because of what he's done in the game. You learn bits from all your managers, it's been good to see how he works.
"He's quite similar to Carlo Ancelotti - quite a calm style. Pretty straight. You get an honesty out of him."
