Girona coach Michel: Man City rumours are just crazy

Girona coach Michel insists he doesn't harbour hopes of succeeding Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

With Girona part of the City Football Group network, Michel has been mentioned as an eventual replacement for Guardiola.

He told Marca: "I don't know... It's crazy to think this now, I like to live a lot from day to day. What I believe is that, right now, we are in a very beautiful moment in Girona, we are making history. I listen to everything. For good and bad, I am very self-critical.

I like to see the evaluation they make of my team and my work in other places because you can't just focus on your work and you have to see how you expose yourself to the outside world. Obviously I know who gives constructive criticism and who gives destructive criticism.

"If I start reading Twitter I'm missing because there are going to be people who are going to go there only to cause harm and it can cause stress. But I do listen, read and talk to people and see what they transmit to me. Today I am enjoying the moment, the future will be seen.

"The happiness we have here is very important and is leading us to make history. Not because you are from the City Group are you going to coach City, it has nothing to do with it. My dream is that we can make history with Girona and we are achieving that."
