For some reasons, I don’t consider Pep as an exceptional coach like the media portrayed. Any manager to have coached City since the Arab owner took over had always won the EPL. Mancini did, Pellegrini did, unluckily they had just three years each. It took Pep 7yrs to win it with City, it’s possible both previous managers would had done it if they were given same number of luxury years create, dynamite and recreate a stronger team.

The two previous managers built City and left a strong City side with the likes of Toure Yaya, Vincent Kompany, Aguero etc, so it’s safe to say Pep inherited a strong city side and built on it.

Pep is a great coach no doubt but certainly not a tactical genius as the likes of Klopp’s Liverpool, Mourinho’s Chelsea of 2004, and Ferguson’s UTD that created a mountain out of a molehill. For the past 7yrs at City he spent over a billion euros, no manager has spent such in a single spell in a team, so winning the UCL is the barest minimum.

Congratulations to City, and it’s safe to say the EPL is the new farmers league, the reason also is not because of Pep’s brilliance, it’s because football has died not only in England but the entire Europe and we have so many players with no passion but just for the weekly wages. The generation of Ferdinand, Vidic, Terry, Sketel, Puyol, Abidal, Evra, Cole, Henry, Kaka, Lampard, David Villa, Kompany, Chellini etc was the last generation of talent based and passion oriented football.
Your list is unfair to KDB and haaland etc

Now we see who is the noisy neighbour in Manchester. United should buckle up and know that football is all about now and what you are achieving and not in some I get am before story. Until united is being bought by Arab money, and don't see them coming out of the woods soon. Americans and English Billionaires don't know how to spend the money to buy good players to win trophies. That's why Arsenal will forever remain an average club. Congratulations PEP.

How much has United spent since Ferguson left? How much did mourinho spen in Chelsea what did he win apart from EPL. You just called Klopp a tactical genius how? Someone who finished outside the top 4 is a tactical genius. The champions league your praising Koop for winning for Liverpool remember even Benitez got Liverpool to 2 finals in three years with virtually unknown players or you haven’t started watching football then?

Taking into account his more than a billion pounds spent on players over the years, it'll have been atrocious not to win all trophies 🏆🏆🏆

Fact: he had more access to money in City compared to Bayern hence the successes. That being said, he's one of the GOAT coaches ever!. He was made for this game of football.
PSG is a clear sign that great players and unlimited money alone is only half the job

I don't believe with most things you write there. But that it Klopp is agree with you. The way Klopp plays his heavy metal football is a joy to watch. They combination of wing play, midfield, strikers, individual skill and over all intense press is very massive. Guardiola majors mostly on midfield but Klopp is more thorough... The days of Mane, Firmino and Salah will always be fresh on my mind.

Another coach who is underestimated is Hansi Flick. The way that guy structured his Bayern Munich team of 2018-2020 was a joy to behold. That was when they would give you huge scorelines as 5-0, 6-0, etc. Bayern Munich of these days were a beast .. Guardiola is good though but I prefer these guys above him sometimes

It's quite unfortunate you typed this verbose screed to discredit a tactical genius and ingenious reign of Pep Guardiola! What you wrote lacked any iota of truth. The CITY side he inherited us totally different from this monstrous side.

Do you know that these guys are just a little above average before PEP made a beast of them?!

How on earth will you downplay winning 2 trebles with two different teams in two different leagues at two different eras a fluke?!

How can you say winning 5 leagues in 6 years is not to be adorned?!

How can you win 14 trophies in few years as CITY manager and 14 trophies in few years as BARCA manager and still say he isn't a magician?!

You people just habor hatred for him! Just like you have undermined Messi for not winning world cup. He won it and case closed. Now, PEP has conquered the world again but you still have excuses.

Sir/ma, GBA fun oga e jare. He is a beast!

He has consistently won 11 leagues in about 14 years with a mixture of 3 different leagues let alone even mentioning all what he has achieved.

Do you know PSG has spent a lot beyond CITY?!
Do you know Chelsea has spent a lot beyond CITY?!
Do you know Man U has spent a lot beyond CITY?!
Do you know Liverpool who has spent a lot has long lost steam while CITY still stand?!

Shamelessly, people point to oil money yet many teams outspent them. What you all don't know is that it is beyond money, the tactical genius did it.

Again,don't undermine these achievements! He has done it all.

Pep the great. Only coach with 2 triplets. Not easy to replicate if you ask me. Give unto Caesar what belongs to Caesar. I see a pattern with trebles replicates. There seems to be a tussle between the Catalan and Bavarian entities, though the Catalan currently leads and by reincarnating into an anglocatalan form to probably confuse the Bavarian competition, thereby asserting its' dominance as the primus. The legitimacy of the anglocatalan is confirmed by the red cross on white background of Barcelona's emblem which resembles England's flag. Up next, bavarians move. Observation continues down the line. Bayern Munich is powerful club in a powerful country. Most of German world cup dominance is down to them.

You know nothing about football for rating wing play above midfield play. Pep starting building attack from the GK, started false 9,starting defending by ball possession, this season, he made Stones, a CB versatile, u can't predict Pep, his a football genius, his blessed. I'm a Chelsea fan, Ake was a Chelsea reject, KDB was a Chelsea reject, Pep moulded them and now u call them world class players who helped Pep? I don't know how u guys watch football aswerugad

You obviously don't know what you are saying about Pep. Hate him or love him, he singlehandedly revolutionized modern football. The most innovative, result oriented and player moulding coach you can dream of. Don't allow personal dislike blind you. He singlehandedly changes the way a club, league and country play their football. For instance, how many coaches can buy an injured player (e.g Gundogan)? How many coaches impact academy players? Xavi, Company, Arteta are disciples of this great PEP. Can you say same for Klopp, Mourinho, Ferguson? Each country he is coaching in massively compete favourably in world and continental football during his era. HE IS THE BEST. People like you said he couldn't do it in England, he shut you up by winning the best league 3times in a roll and now treble. Now he has done it, you guys are saying he spent billions as if other teams don't spend billions. How many years did it take Sir Ferguson to win trophies? KLOPP acknowledged he learned alot from PEP. Mourinho fears PEP and always attacks him. Sir Ferguson was hell bent on handing over man u to a genius PEP. Who introduced false 9? Who converts defenders to mid fielders?Who instill non stop winning mentality on players more that clubs are queining into? Who reintroduced baptism of goals(during Barca era)?Some people reasoning sef

...I disagree....pep is a genius ..can we just keep it at that and stop the fallacies....saying he spent billions ...forgetting united has spent billions too in 10years and hasn't smell the league not to talk of the champions league...or is it PSG that has been spending for fun in years and couldn't even make it more than ones to the cham league final

Should we talk about how guadiola has changed the facet of soccer in epl...it use to be the orthodox way but pep opened our eyes to good and efficient soccer...Asides the arsenal of years ..i can't say any team has played any close to wat city has played in years ..not even the man UTD of Ferguson...

Even wen we talk about buying of players ...can't u see pep is still a genius in regards to this ..most of the players he buys are nt even the top class u will assume a big side should buy ..foden... Bernardo...Diaz... stones...this are players u won't rate in the top 5 in there department in Europe but see what he does with them every year...see what he did with sterling...see wat he did with Gabriel Jesus ...i can't boldly name a player that played under pep at city that wasn't upgraded technically within a season ..even Mourinho don't do that..he only buys the quality and sometime doesn't know wat to do with them...or have u forgotten ...Salah and Debruyne in Chelsea?

Or should we talk about how dominant his team is in games against big side...even against trans like madrid...or PSG that has players who are in the top 4 rating in the world...the way he dimolishes big sides in epl and makes other coaches look foolish ...Guadiola is the only coach that will bring his team to your home ground and the game will end in 60minutes ...by 79minutes the game is off already cos u must have been battered...the sweet passes...the possession...the press and ball winning high up the pitch...the tactical brilliance ...patience and astuteness in possession

Guadiola is by far the best coach in this era ...and it shows not just because he is just winning champions league but the balls he gives his team to be on the front foot everytime...or have u forgotten how he came to Barca bad domintad the world schooling every other coaches with this sweet ticki tacka football??

For the past 10 years now,they have always been featuring in major European competition finals and winning most of them.
Like this season,they played in two continental finals and won all.

But Serie A teams featured in 3 continental finals and ended up losing them all this season.

That was when they would give you huge scorelines as 5-0, 6-0, etc. Bayern Munich of these days were a beast .. Guardiola is good though but I prefer these guys above him sometimes
you're absolutely right.
Bayern Munich under Hans Flick in his last season 2020 was their best in history.
I still remember when they whooped Tottenham Hotspur 7 goals at white hart lane, London.
I also have noticed that for your team to be at it's best you need a top 9 like lewandoski that's why Bayern are struggling ever since he left.
Hans Flick is a very great coach

Taking into account his more than a billion pounds spent on players over the years, it'll have been atrocious not to win all trophies 🏆🏆🏆

Fact: he had more access to money in City compared to when he was in Bayern hence the successes. That being said, he's one of the GOAT coaches ever!. He was made for this game of football.



Go and confirm the bolded and stop embarrassing yourself. tongue

He has spent less than Man united & Chelsea since joining Man City. And spent way below your unverified claim. undecided

So when is Manchester United going to close the wide gap between it and Manchester City?? At the moment, the gap is like heaven and earth!!! Just so you know, since that last time in 2013 that United won the league to date, City has always finished ahead on United on the league table!! They have just rivaled United in winning the treble, have broken other records that united held for many years!!! United used to have a distinct and wide gap between it and city years ago but that has since gone!! Where did we get it wrong I know it will still take some years before city can match what united has achieved locally and internationally, united should not lay down like a sleeping giant while still continue to widen the gap and take glory upon glory. Hoping the takeover by the Qatari succeeds eventually so that right funds can pumps in and right players acquired so that united can becomes great again!!!!!!!!!
