"I hear a lot of times about that intensity of the Premier League when none of you have been in La Liga or the Bundesliga to know how intense it is," Guardiola replied.
"Here, maybe the problem is more games. The way they play in Germany for example is <insert onomatopoeic word here> amazing.
"I think you have to have respect for the other leagues and the way they play."
Discussing Barcelona, Pep added:
"Of course Barcelona is special, the way they play. They are a machine with three amazing players in front, they use an amazing counter attack, have a good build up... They are a good team. When they win 4-0, they deserve to win 4-0."
Returning to his point about other leagues, Guardiola also pointed out the successes of Spanish clubs in European competitions:
"Why in Spain over the last the last six, seven, eight, nine years do they win or arrive in the finals and semi-finals of European competitions? I think it's because they're good. It's because they have good players."
Maybe he's got a point.
