'Too much of a tactical wizard' - Guardiola accused by Gullit of tinkering too much at Man City

Ruud Gullit believes the Spanish coach will settle on a winning formula at the Etihad Stadium, but says his system is not working at present

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is ‘too much of a tactical wizard’, according to former Chelsea player and manager Ruud Gullit.

The Spaniard is still adjusting to life in the Premier League following his summer arrival at the Etihad Stadium.

He has enjoyed success in the past at Barcelona and Bayern Munich, with La Liga and Bundesliga puzzles completed to deliver domestic and continental silverware.

The general consensus is that a man widely considered to be among the finest coaching brains in the business will get things right at City and put them in contention for more major honours.
