*I could be sacked if I lose to Real Madrid - Guardiola*

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has said that he might get sacked if his side loses their UEFA Champions League last-16 match against Real Madrid.

With Liverpool looking good to go with the English Premier League, Guardiola's men still have the chance to go home with a silverware in the FA Cup, League Cup and the UEFA Champions League.

“That’s why it is so difficult to win it. And in 100 and more seasons of history for Manchester City, it was 100 seasons of failure – that is not true,” Guardiola told Football Daily.

“There are many incredible players that made our fans happy, and (times when) our fans enjoyed part of the season. I know the people say ‘You are good’ or ‘You’re not good enough.’

“I accept it. I want to win the Champions League, I dream and will enjoy the games against Real Madrid, to see what I can do. “And this process, the two weeks before, will be the happiest moments of my profession, to imagine what we can do to beat them.

“If we don’t beat them, then the chairman will come, or the sporting director, and say ‘It’s not good enough, we want the Champions League, I’m going to sack you’. Said Guardiola

“Then ‘OK, thank you, it was a pleasure.’”
