Manchester City fan Rachel Herdson believes Pep Guardiola's successor is already known among the club's hierarchy and says the Spaniard's body language suggests this could be his last season at Etihad Stadium. "It's difficult to try to judge what is going on in Pep Guardiola's head - I've given up second guessing him," Herdson told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club.
Manchester City fan Rachel Herdson believes Pep Guardiola's successor is already known among the club's hierarchy and says the Spaniard's body language suggests this could be his last season at Etihad Stadium.
"It's difficult to try to judge what is going on in Pep Guardiola's head - I've given up second guessing him," Herdson told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club.
"There was chat when [Enzo] Maresca left Chelsea that he'd been talking to the powers that be at City.
"They will have a successor in place already, whether it be Maresca, [Vincent] Kompany or [Xabi] Alonso. That's the way they operate behind the scenes - they are uber-professional.
"After Spurs, Pep was especially spiky to the media and I did wonder: 'Is that a man who has had enough and wants to walk away?'
"What I don't want to happen is it to go down the Arsene Wenger route where his last season is a disaster. That would be a real shame.
"He'll always be a legend and we want him to go out like that."
