Most people have been gripped by the Premier League this season, but not everybody is a fan.

Pep Guardiola is the talk of English football after confirming his upcoming move to Manchester City in the summer, but his father seems to question his son's desire to move to Old Blighty.

Valenti Guardiola admitted that he's not a big fan of Premier League football, describing it as "boring." 

He said, per the Mirror: "I have to confess that English football is not my cup of tea. It’s a lot of long balls and running. I prefer the football my son likes to practise—lots of passing then a surprise attack when a hole opens up."

Valenti also revealed his son is lacking in the DIY department: "When it comes to my territory which is being good with my hands, Pep’s an absolute disaster. He can’t even change a light bulb."

Guardiola will leave Bayern Munich in the summer to begin a three-year contract with City.
