Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini 'to give team talk at hotel'

Manuel Pellegrini will reportedly deliver a team talk to his Manchester City players at a hotel prior to their Champions League decider against Barcelona.

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini will reportedly deliver his team talk at a hotel ahead of his side's crucial Champions League clash against Barcelona.

The Chilean coach is banned from speaking to his players once he arrives at Camp Nou as he is currently serving a two-match touchline suspension.

Pellegrini was issued with the ban following critical comments that he made about Swedish referee Jonas Eriksson following the last-16 first leg at the Etihad Stadium.

It has now emerged that Pellegrini will deliver his team talk from the hotel in Spain on Wednesday two hours prior to kickoff, according to the Daily Mail.

City will need to overturn a 2-0 deficit in order to reach the quarter-finals of the competition.
