At the World Cup, working as an expert, Mauricio Pochettino remembered his time at Paris Saint-Germain.
Leading the French team for a season and a half, the specialist managed to reach the Champions League semi-finals, where they lost to Manchester City, and in the next season, in the quarter-finals, after a dramatic battle, they lost to the future champions, Real Madrid.
"If I left PSG because I didn't win the Champions League, then Guardiola should have been fired from Manchester City seven or eight times," he said. "This is different reality, PSG is there to win the Champions League. If this goal is not achieved, then I am the most responsible," compared his situation with P. Guardiola's Manchester City M. Pochettino.
In 1.5 years at the Paris club, the Argentinian managed to win the French Super Cup, the French Cup, and the Ligue 1 championship title.
