Why Liverpool FC signed Darwin Nunez over Alexander Isak 'as Reds plot huge new bid for Newcastle star'
The ex-Liverpool staffer, who between 2012 and 2023 worked to implement data analysis into the club's transfer policy, continued: 'It would be very churlish of me to say, 'It's terrible that Jurgen had his choice', when in the past Jurgen had been persuaded by me and my colleagues of a different choice. And it was still the case that we signed good players - in Nunez's case, one of the best young strikers in Europe.'

Pep Guardiola worried that lack of rest after Club World Cup could ‘destroy' Manchester City
ORLANDO – Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is concerned about the lack of rest his side will get ahead of the new English Premier League season and said their involvement in the Club World Cup could 'destroy' them. City wrapped up the previous Premier League season on May 25 and opened their Club World Cup campaign in Philadelphia just over three weeks later on June 18. They face Al-Hilal in Orlando on June 30 (July 1, Singapore time) in the round of 16 and should City go on to reach the final on July 13, they will have a month to prepare for their new league campaign beginning on Aug 16. Guardiola said he did not know how much the Club World Cup would take out of his squad and told reporters to ask him about the impact later in the year. 'I may say, so listen, we are a disaster. We are exhausted. The World Cup destroyed us,' he added. 'I don't know, but it's the first time in our life that that's happened. So we'll see.' England coach Thomas Tuchel said Arne Slot's Reds and Arsenal have an advantage on City for the upcoming campaign because they are resting during the summer. 'I try to not think about it, otherwise I will be so anxious,' added Guardiola. The City boss said he understood comments made by former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who said the expanded 32-team event, to be held once every four years during the pre-season, was football's worst idea. However, the Spaniard also said he wants his team to win Fifa's heavily criticised newly expanded competition this summer in the United States, noting many of the complaints have come from teams which did not reach the tournament. Klopp, currently Red Bull's head of global football, told German newspaper Welt am Sonntag the crowded calendar meant there was no time for players to recover mentally or physically and he had serious concern over possible injuries. 'Jurgen – we fought together many, many times, I know where the idea comes from, we fought a lot in England, when we went to Uefa meetings, especially on the Premier League, (about) the calendar, to try to (increase the) quality,' Guardiola told reporters. 'So the players rest, and the managers rest, (then) you have more quality, so it didn't surprise me, I understand him, I respect him. 'I have an incredible relationship with Jurgen, when we were rivals... I understand his argument, because his argument I would defend as well.' The coach said despite the criticism the tournament has received, he is 'proud' to be competing to win it. 'At the same time we're in a job, we follow Fifa, Uefa, Premier League, Serie A... the managers are not going to organise the competitions, everyone has their own role, they organise the competitions,' continued Guardiola. 'I have said many times, I am so proud to be here, because in the end many, many teams complain about the competitions, because they are not here, otherwise they would love maybe to be there.'

Liverpool's former data expert Ian Graham has revealed how Klopp opted for Nunez over the cheaper Isak deal. He told the Financial Times: "Jurgen created a lot of success for the club, so it's understandable why it moved in that direction (from data-driven decisions to managerial preference). "I'm happy to talk about my colleagues persuading Jurgen (in 2017) that Mohamed Salah was the player to buy instead of Julian Brandt.

Manchester City's Pep Guardiola 'Understands' Jurgen Klopp Club World Cup Critique
Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola said Sunday he can see Jurgen Klopp's point after the former Liverpool coach labelled the Club World Cup "the worst idea ever implemented in football". However the Catalan also said he wants his team to win FIFA's heavily criticised newly expanded competition this summer in the United States, noting many of the complaints have come from teams which did not reach the tournament. Klopp, currently Red Bull's "head of global soccer", told German newspaper Welt am Sonntag the crowded calendar meant there was no time for players to recover mentally or physically and he had serious concern over possible injuries. "Jurgen -- we fought together many, many times, I know where the idea comes from, we fought a lot in England, when we went to UEFA meetings, especially on the Premier League, (about) the calendar, to try to (increase the) quality," Guardiola told reporters. "So the players rest, and the managers rest, (then) you have more quality, so it didn't surprise me, I understand him, I respect him. "I have an incredible relationship with Jurgen, when we were rivals... I understand his argument, because his argument I would defend as well." Guardiola's side are in the last 16 of the competition and face Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal on Monday in Orlando. The coach said despite the criticism the tournament has received, he is "proud" to be competing to win it. "At the same time we're in a job, we follow FIFA, UEFA, Premier League, Serie A... the managers are not going to organise the competitions, everyone has their own role, they organise the competitions," continued Guardiola. "I have said many times, I am so proud to be here, because in the end many, many teams complain about the competitions, because they are not here, otherwise they would love maybe to be there. "Their media will be here, their supporters will be here, there will be their income in terms of money to be here, and they will be happy to be there." Man City have won six of the last eight Premier League titles with Liverpool claiming the other two, including last season. England coach Thomas Tuchel said Arne Slot's Reds and Arsenal have an advantage on City for the upcoming campaign because they are resting during the summer. "I try to not think about it, otherwise I will be so anxious," added Guardiola. "So I try to be relaxed, to enjoy the days here, the good vibes that we have, the competition, to try to win it."
