UEFA vice-president Zbigniew Boniek has hit out at former Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
Speaking in an interview with Corriere dello Sport, Boniek said Guardiola has "killed" football with his possession-based philosophy and tactics.
"I have great respect for Guardiola, but he has killed football. His football is you to me, me to you," the former Poland international said.
"We go to the right, come back to the left, and by the end of the match you have made 1,788 passes. I don't enjoy it.”
Guardiola is currently out of a job after leaving Manchester City some months ago.
The Spaniard has coached clubs like Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Man City in the past.
