Guardiola introduces training-ground fines to keep Man City players in check

Guardiola has been ramming home the dangers of complacency during team meetings since the start of the season.

While coach at Barcelona and Bayern Munich he suffered some shock results in the first weeks of his respective clubs’ title defences, including a 2-0 Camp Nou defeat to Hercules in 2010 and two draws from four games in 2011. At Bayern in 2014 his champions failed to win two of their first four matches.
