Manchester: Former Barcelona teammates Pep Guardiola and Ronald Koeman will be reunited at Eastlands today as Manchester City and Everton square up for the first time in the Premier League this season.
And Everton manager Koeman is relishing the chance to pit his wits against his City counterpart, who was just setting off on his glorious playing career with the Catalan club when Koeman signed for Barca in 1989. &ldquo;I have all good memories of Pep,&rdquo; said Koeman. &ldquo;We have a really strong friendship. Now it&rsquo;s a bit easier because he&rsquo;s living in Manchester and I live close to Manchester.
&ldquo;Sometimes we have time for dinner and to talk about football and life. We have spent many hours together talking football. He was really interested in how we play in Holland. I see a lot of that in teams managed by Pep, about Barca and I like that because it&rsquo;s the most difficult way to win &mdash; play offensive.&rdquo;
