Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has reiterated that nothing managers say will make a difference to fixture scheduling and those that cannot take it should 'go to the Maldives'.
Jurgen Klopp has been vocal in his frustration at the fact Liverpool take on Newcastle United in the 12:30pm kick off on Saturday, despite having played in the Champions League against Villarreal on Wednesday night. The Liverpool boss has hit out at broadcasters and the Premier League on numerous occasions and says no other league in the world would impose such a gruelling schedule.
City, too, have had to navigate similar problems this season with quick turn arounds between their Champions League quarter-final clashes against Atletico Madrid and the games against Liverpool in the league and FA Cup. Guardiola says 'nothing will change' and it's a waste of time to keep asking managers about such problems.
