"The Premier League has not allowed us to postpone the first two games for our recovery. Thank you so much. They don't postpone these games, so that will be the moment of: 'Oh, what do we have to do?'"
"An increasingly packed calendar has been a concern among a growing number of players and managers. A report by global players' union FIFPRO said some players get only 12% of the year to rest."

"Guardiola said the Club World Cup will make it even more difficult for clubs to manage player workload."
