"He brainwashed me": Danilo talks about working with Guardiola

During his time as a coach, Pep Guardiola worked with numerous footballers, employing the most innovative methods.

Details: Former Manchester City defender Danilo shared that he learned a lot thanks to working with the Spaniard. So much so, that he was literally brainwashed by him.

Quote: "Guardiola educates his players. That's the most important thing in his work. He makes all players think about football the same way. Time, space, movement, ball possession, care for it. He makes you understand space on the field like no other coach, and he lives the game emotionally like no other coach.

Guardiola brainwashed me, but in a good way. It was like attending university. What I experienced with him allowed me to elevate my level and maintain it to this day. It's not that I was an idiot before arriving at Manchester City, but I realized I was playing football completely wrong," said Danilo in an interview with The Guardian.

Reminder: Earlier, the defender admitted that his time at Real was particularly challenging for him.
