Man City boss Guardiola writes to Prem over Christmas schedule

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has wrote to the Premier League to complain about the hectic festive schedule.

Guardiola has been an outspoken critic of the Premier League's scheduling since the day he took over City in 2016.

And the Catalan has revealed that he has formally told the competition about his feelings.

"I wrote a letter to the Premier League to say thank you and we are going to the fridge after Wolves to get ready for Sheffield United," Guardiola told the Telegraph.

"[Sunday was] a day off, we are training [on December] 23 and 24. The night of the 24th is off. The morning of the 25th off. Then the 26th training and 27th [play] Nuno's team."
