Aleksandr Hleb admits he didn't see eye-to-eye with Pep Guardiola at Barcelona.

However, he insists he's delighted for his old coach over his success with Manchester City.

He recalled to Metaratings.ru: "He was a young and ambitious coach. He was very emotional and demanding. He knew how to light it up, but then the guys themselves understood that they needed to win titles and be in first place.

"There were different periods, we swore too. But I realised my mistakes, this topic is closed.

"Yes, of course, I'm happy for him! Outside of Barcelona, he never won the Champions League again, it's something special for him. He dreams about it now. Josep has invested a lot to build a new team."
