Guardiola’s 4-Week Siesta Riot…

Hold onto your cones and whistle, because Pep Guardiola’s summer plans have been flipped on their head like a half-time tactical team talk! City’s ambitious journey to the Club World Cup ended faster than a cheetah chasing a meatball, with the boys in blue getting a humbling dose of reality from the football wizards of Al Hilal! Now, our brave Citizens face the unfathomable ordeal of lounging around for a whole four weeks before the Premier League bell tolls again.

Picture this: It’s a topsy-turvy vacation where the pre-season is a lazy vacation sunrise instead of the expected training tornado! But fear not; there’s talk of City conjuring up some extra fixtures as brilliantly random as Pep’s haircuts over the years. They might even reenact their Icelandic saga of 2017 or embark on an encore performance a la Girona in the December drama of World Cup glory.

And let’s not forget the legend of the furious pitch fiasco in Beijing — when a football match was lost to the fields of a concert carnage! Pep didn’t mince words then, and he’s expectedly gearing up to throw a few more football bombs if the game count doesn’t rise like a counter-attack in full swing. The fixtures list is looking shakier than a post-goal celebration dance, folks!
