Guardiola Reacts to Amorim's Sacking - 'Respect for Players and Man Utd'

Pep Guardiola commented on the dismissal of Ruben Amorim from Manchester United, expressing only respect for the players and the club. Amorim's departure came after a series of disappointing results, including a recent draw with Leeds, which jeopardized the team's Champions League qualification.

His statement was made ahead of Manchester City's match against Brighton.
