LONDON -- Huddled with a couple of reporters in a small side room at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah last December, Pep Guardiola was told by a member of Manchester City's staff he would have to fulfil a contractual obligation for the Premier League by answering a couple of questions about an upcoming game against Everton.
He had just lifted the FIFA Club World Cup -- his fifth trophy of 2023 -- and looking content but emotionally drained he was in no mood to talk about what might await on a cold winter night at Goodison Park.
