Guardiola saw Kroos' interview at home.
He felt a bit unsettled.
But he was somewhat relieved that at least Kroos didn't say things like Milan being more upscale than Real Madrid.
Otherwise, he might truly end up being the Catalan version of Mourinho.
Even though he's a Barcelona enthusiast, Guardiola doesn't like doing things that aren't beneficial to him or the team, especially when it means offending a giant like Real Madrid needlessly.
Guardiola glanced at the scouting report.
He couldn't help but furrow his brows.
The situation with the Bender brothers and the two Belgian youngsters on loan hasn't been great lately.
Lars Bender got injured, and Sven Bender was placed in an unfamiliar wide midfield position, resulting in two conceded goals.
Hazard was criticized for holding onto the ball too much.
Young players inevitably go through many setbacks in their development.
Guardiola felt he should call them individually sometime to check on their situation.
