Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says he won't jump straight into a new job should he leave the club.
Guardiola starts the new season at West Ham on Sunday, setting off in search of a fifth league title in the last six years at the Etihad.
"Everything is fluid. I don't have perspective in the future to say (what will happen)," said Guardiola.
"I'm pretty sure I am happy here and at the end I'm going to stay and, if not, it's not because I want to move forward or move to another place.
'It's because I will stop, I will take a break. This is my thoughts right now.
'"First, obviously, I am here because we won; otherwise I would not be here. I have good professionals and they are friends but my friends are not stupid and it is a business and they need results.
"And the life is the life. Most of the time I am here at these facilities, a lot of hours, and then I take a car and go home. So I like my life, I like my job.
"I am not alone here. I am happy with the staff, the backroom staff. Six years, we know each other quite well. We know each other. They know me, I know them. We don't have to make rules, everything is fluid.
"It is completely different when you first arrive, you have to set, you have to know each other - not just the players. 'People say I can be happy with the players, with the staff, with the backroom staff, with the hierarchy of the club. Obviously if there was trouble, I had problems, I would not be here seven years."
