MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola hailed Ange Postecoglou, whose Tottenham Hotspur side visit the Etihad on Sunday, as a manager who made football a better place and whom he had watched since they first met in Japan years ago.

Champions City are second in the Premier League, a point behind Arsenal, with Spurs fifth and three points adrift of their weekend opponents after losing their last three matches and dropping off the top.
