Juventus defender Danilo: Why you can't have a good relationship with Guardiola

Juventus defender Danilo admits he didn't always get along with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

The Brazilian has worked with some of the best managers in the world, such as Zizou Zidane, Pep Guardiola and Massimiliano Allegri.

“I've been lucky, they are different, but they are all winners. I have tried to learn from everyone. It was with Guardiola that I changed my way of seeing things, I didn't play much also because of an injury," said the Brazil fullback.

“It's true that it's not easy to have a good relationship with him, he is never relaxed, he thinks about football all the time. I think at home, in the evening, he puts his wife on the couch as she were a player on the pitch.

“From Allegri, I try to learn something that I had not yet been taught, he wants something totally different and I am sure I will become stronger."
