Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has rubbished all claims that he has imposed a no sex after midnight ban on his players, because he actually believes that “it’s impossible to play good football” without it!

Pep GuardiolaFrench midfielder Samir Nasri had revealed that Man City boss Guardiola banned his players from having sex after midnight.

“I never did that and I would never ban that. If you are doing it, [then] better players!”
