Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has ordered his players to take a three-day break, encouraging them to "enjoy life" with cocktails including caipirinhas and daiquiris. The relaxation comes as the team continues to apply pressure on Arsenal in the Premier League title race.
Guardiola's unusual directive comes amid a crucial period in the season where every point matters. The tactical decision to give his squad time off suggests confidence in his team's ability to maintain their push for the championship while also allowing players to recharge.
