Pep “Foden has pain but it doesn’t matter; he says: ‘I play, I play.’ When he has discomfort and says he does not feel good, it’s because he does not feel good. But he’s a guy who tolerates well.”
Pep “Normally when you train with pain – it’s impossible to wake up in the morning and be clean with everything – but Foden is a guy where it’s not a problem.” #Pep
Pep “Foden loves playing football too much. Even in a bad situation, he wants to play and play, and not all of them are like this. Today he was training. He is not thinking about the injury now. I don’t know for tomorrow if I will choose him but soon he will be back.”
Journo: Can you name those players more reluctant to play in pain.
Pep “Yeah, I’m going to write a mail to you and I’m going to tell you privately which players are softer. I’m going to tell you now” #Pep

Pep “Speak with all the managers: there are players who want to play even when they’re injured and the other ones. I was softer – when I had pain I had pain; I didn’t want to play.”
Journo: Do you talk to players who refuse to push themselves?
Pep “If there’s a problem another one will come in. If he’s then playing well he’ll continue. It’s a problem with the player. I never push a player who doesn’t feel good to play.”
