I dare Guardiola to eventually join Benfica and break our (non-existent) European curse.

I remember when Pep was announced as the new City coach, the narrative was that 'he can't do it in the Prem' and 'he only dominated in easy leagues'. Now the narrative is 'he had it too easy.'

Jealousy will consume the haters. Pep is a fantastic manager

I swear the disrespect Pep receives. No other manager in the world makes Stones a world class Midfielder. He may buy expensive players but he gets them working like a well oiled machine, few can manage that l.

This was a much needed video for those who doubted him. He's a genius, and to me, he will go down as the greatest manager of all time. Put him at your club, he will improve it, give it an identity, and bring in trophies

I remember seeing Guardiola play for Barça when he was on his way out, driven out by Van Gaal. Never seen 1 player make such a difference. Guy came in at half time : 1st half, the team played terribly, like a bunch of headless chickens walking on the pitch, they were booed on their way to the changing room. After he came in, everyone was giving him the ball, you could see him reorganize the whole team and its offence just by being in the midfield and giving the ball to the guy who was in the best position, at the best time. Like a general taking direct command on the battlefield. He obviously had the experience, the whole Cruyff game plan still burned in his brain, and it showed. I'm not surprised he became the manager he now is after seeing him play that day.

Playing from back with goalkeeper wasn’t football thing in EPL but look how every team try to play from back with goalkeeper that prove how pep revolution with football is incredible.

As a City fan, I’ve backed Pep since he came in. Now mind you, I wasn’t a Pep fanboy, I just had a healthy respect for what he’s accomplished kver his career as a manager. I’ve pretty much felt that during his tenure at City. However that changed this year. I began to seriously doubt Pep in the months following the WC where we were just playing terribly (relative to our norm), Pep was calling fans and players out and he was like a madman tinkering constantly with player and player position. Once everything clicked and the team started their winning streak, I realized the error of my ways; I realized that the difference between genius and insanity can only be measured by success. Pep was right all along. It was my ah-ha moment. From then on, I’ve become not just a Pep fan, but a true-believer as he most certainly is a footballing genius. In Pep, I trust…

Also hate the sentiment people have that he won't be able to succeed at a 'lesser' club with less money. Because they entirely ignore his first managerial job at Barca B where he won the Spanish third division working mostly with Academy players. Imo he's the most innovative manager at getting the best out of the skillsets of players he works with.

The signing of Akanji and Julian Alvarez for me says it all about Pep. He improves players substantially to the point of maintaining or increase their market values, and when it decreases it's only by a very small margin. They sell very well cuz players leave City still with good impression and many clubs show genuine interest buying these players and that is the Pep effect. Very different to what happens for example at Man United and other clubs. The players Pep goes for are not necessarily world beaters, just good enough players which he improves upon. Grealish is the perfect example, but the list is long. Sterling, with his football, would not have been scoring goals at the rate he was doing at Man City if he was playing for another club. At one point he was their go-to man. He was unstoppable. At Chelsea we are already seeing the huge drop on the individual level and that's partly is bcuz it's no longer Pep. I still think he gave us Messi, Pep gave Messi the stage and Messi never looked back. We might never know cuz there are coaches out there who don't hv eyes to see who would have looked past Messi as good as he might have been back then. Many players down the line just never rose to prominence due to just bad coaching. Pep is truly a different and rare type of manager. He's unique..

Pep is simply the greatest manager-coach in the history of the game. Only he is held to such higher standards. PS. Thank you so much for Ruben Dias! What an absolute warrior. Massively key to this season's crazy turnaround

One of his biggest attributes is consistency.. how do you motivate players that win it all one season to try and top it off the next season. How does he himself stay motivated to win everything and some again!

Pep is the manager who brought the best out of Messi. That alone brought about a third of the success at Barcelona. From that achievement alone he should be always viewed as one of the greatest of all time.

He also improves the international teams of each country he coaches, it’s absolutely no coincidence that Spain, Germany and England’s successes have happened when he was coaching in each countries’ domestic leagues

Often footballers and managers only get the respect they deserve when they're gone. I think this will happen to Pep. As the saying goes, you didn't know what you had until it was gone

It will never stop, only when he retires. Thats how sport works, no one is universally known as the best while theyre still playing. A portion of people will always doubt and hate on them. Look at Messi, MJ, Tom Brady, etc. When I hear people comparing Pep to Ancelotti and Mourinho who cant even crack the top 6 with Roma and hasnt won a league title in almost a decade.. its laughable

It's embarrassing how the media always attempts to question or criticize Guardiola. They wanted to eat him alive for subbing Halaand off in games they'd be leading by 3+ goals. I'm sure Halaand prefers the treble over breaking a 'most goals in a game record'.

If money was a guarantee for success, then Mourinho spending 400m at United would have made him successful. Then you have PSG, and now Chelsea… Money is not enough. And Pep gets prices inflated whenever he comes. That’s why he now keeps his targets top secret. Example is Dias, had it been an open secret, Fiaz would have gone for 100m easily! Same with Halaand! He plans well ahead of time and gets his players way long before anyone thinks about him ever needing a player in that position! For example, if Gundogan goes, or Bernardo, that problem is solved long ago! The media to date have no clue who’s Pep’s targets. I love that about Pep. And I think Arteta has shown us the same at Arsenal and we’re getting to discover that side about him.

Brilliant video. The comparisons with the net spends of other clubs really put things into perspective. Guardiola is probably the only manager that a club would keep as long as he wants to be kept in the club. When he leaves, it's bound to be on HIS terms. Can't think of a single other manager in modern football who can claim that

"He has the best team everywhere he goes" The only team Guardiola inherited that was an already bonafide elite team was Bayern in 2014. He entered a Barcelona team that was borderline playing Europa League football, with a stale squad that was dominated by Real in Squad and flopped in Europe. At City, he acquired a team that wasn't good at all, well not compared to what he has now. He inherited a team that had average players from top to bottom, and yes, he had money, but so did his competitors. Not a single player Pep has bought was world class at the time barring I'd say Haaland. He has taken them from good players to the best in their positions. But because they have money that is overlooked. And at the club they say he failed, Bayern, he won the league every year at a cantour. Which is expected but not a given. Bayern in recent years have proven that they are inconsistent and the only reason they don't lose the league is because there's no real competition, take this year as an example. At Bayern he won the league and cup almost every year, something Bayern have rarely done since his exit. In the UCL he messed up bad with his high intensity, brave football but you can't blame a man for not winning the UCL when MSN was around, and Real won 3 UCL's in a row. And all of this without mentioning the beautiful football Pep has played at every single club he has managed. He is the best, without a doubt.

We can clearly see the way football is played pre guardiola and during gaurdiola... The way he adopted /created tatics, makes it sucess and is followed in yrs later. Sweeping GK, inverted fullbacks, box midfield, false 9, ball playing CB and the game style as a whole. That's something that comes along once in while who progress the whole game forward. PS. Nowadays even in our local weekend matches we try to build from back, play tiki taka and score. Guess where it is inspired from.

Remember yall why work at big clubs like Barca, Bayern, and Man City when you have yet to win it with a small club🙄pep has proven why he's such a sought out manager like why handicap yourself when there's clubs that can support your vision smh Great vid Adrian 👌

I don't like Pep not a fan at all but that dude is incredible. His ability to implement his style of football in every player is admirable and probably the hardest thing for a coach to do. Gotta give the man city higher ups some recognition too they put this all together, how and where you spend is key

Also alot of credit needs to be given to the guys in the back like Txiki Ferran Soriano and Mubarak have all done their bit behind the scenes off the pitch to ensure Guardiola his staff and squad have the resources they need to compete across a season long campaign

Whole barca fan base supports city just coz of pep, including me. He's not underrated, its just tht we'll hv to wait 5-6 years more for the world to consider him the best. Now sir Alex is considered the best for experience n longevity. In short he just needs to get old lol

Bro recovered a team that wasn't perfoming well and turned it on a monster that beat everyone on their path. Only delusional people thinks it was easy

Thank you for this video, some people just can't recognize greatness. Pep is great and will go down as one of the greatest.

People will keep moving the goalposts when it comes to the ultra succesful.

There will NOT be another Pep, ever. A top player becoming a revolutionary coach right after? While the best talents (big egos) want to work with him? I’m sorry, we cannot replace him

Think of this : You are a top consultant. You are simply brilliant - you know that yourself. You deliver on your projects, really know how to solve even the most complex problems in the business and you earn top bucks as a result. You have the pedigree, having being graduated from the best b schools in the world. As a result of your excellence, top companies in the world want you. Every consultancy company - be in McKinsey, Bain, Delloite, EY would take you in with open arms. Why shouldn't you join them? What's the point in joining some average company and ply your trade there? Point to prove to people who want to see you fail anyways ? Erm, seems entirely reasonable huh. You are brilliant and everything good that happens to you in your life - you deserve it. Because you bloody hell worked your ass off to get where you are. Pep is a victim of his own brilliance. This video title couldn't be any more apt. We all take him for granted - we all compare him with some random manager every other year. One year, it's Mourinho, another it's Alex Ferguson, another it's Klopp - some clowns went as far as comparing him with Tuchel. Brother, sit down. He's Pep. You hate Man city, it's completely different - stop chatting shxt about Pep. We're witnessing greatness. There's no other way I can put it. When he's no longer in the game - you'll cry, the same way you'll cry when Messi and Ronaldo hang up their boots.

Great content as usual Adrian. I would also be interested to have a separate analysis of his tactical influence in the current generation of managers from Xavi(barca success), arteta (Arsenal succes), kompany (Burnley success), Ten hag (united success) amd just general influence on how the modern games is played( false 9 messi origins), inverted fullback, ball playing keepers etc

There is so much hate and jealousy among the haters it's actually quite funny and sad at the same time. These are just casuals with 0 knowledge about the sport. Pep is one of the greatest and will always be. Love him💙💙

smh there is no doubt in my mind PEP IS TAKEN FOR GRANTED . People dont get how crazy it is that Pep has managed to dominate year in year out playing great football . Despite the money he''s spent can we just take a moment to appreciate and acknowledge his greatness . We''ve witnessed greatness , hate it or love it no one will ever dominate and win in the style like pep has . everytime i watch city play i am honestly in awe , we are watching greatness , 3 league titles in row , a treble in the hardest league in the world . GREATNESS ON ANOTHER LEVEL . THE MAN SHOULD START WEARING ROMAN REIGNS T-SHIRT THAT SAYS '' SHOW UP & WIN '' LMAO CAUSE AII THATS LITERALLY ALL HE DOES

People keep comparing Pep to Sir Alex in terms of how Sir Alex built his squad from the ground up, while Pep just bought them. However, what these people fail to realize is that neither the clubs nor the fans have the patience to go a couple of seasons without winning trophies, like Sir Alex did when he first started with Man Utd. The footballing world has shifted to a short-term approach of buy, win, sack, and repeat. Therefore, someone like Pep should be cherished instead of being hated on.

Fantastic content as always! Pep is GOAT!

I won't forget his tenure at Barca when he orbited the relatively unproven players likes Busquest, Thiago, Pedro, Sergi Roberto, Montoya, Jeffren, etc, even the homecoming Pique (not even a regular at United), and integrated them with the star players Barca already have (Xavi, Iniesta, Messi, Puyol), and that was against the new Galactico Madrid era (Ronaldo, Benzema, Ozil, Kaka, Di Maria, Xabi, Khedira, Carvalho, Marcelo, Ramos) with Mourinho at the helm. But yeah, people most likely will forget that. 😬😬 What I like about Guardiola is his ability to develop players or challenge established players to master new roles. Just like Busquets, Thiago, Phil Foden, Zinchenko, Rico Lewis, or Kimmich, Alaba, Boateng, John Stones, even Messi.

Amazing video! keep it up Adrian!

Cheque book manager you know. People forget what he did at Barca and overlook the context by simply looking at that team for the achievements that they brought in as a result of Pep. I mean yeah Pep had Messi so? Messi was there the season before Pep's arrival and look at the state of Barca back then.

He's a world class manager who's had everything he ever wanted

We Man City fans know the fact that we won’t be anywhere near as good of a football team without Pep. They play such beautiful football that it’s a shame so many jealous people started hating on Pep in anyway possible and it took a lot of traction.

Although i have been critical of him, never denied that he is one of the greats. I'm just a pretty critical person to anyone and some criticisms are valid

The difference is that Pep brings in players that will play his style of football. He will go all out and buy them no matter the price. While the other managers will buy whatever big name is out there at that moment.

Great video. It’s so refreshing to see someone go beyond the headlines and actually look at how City operate. It’s also nice that you haven’t immediately condemned City like 99% of the media have

Other managers build teams, Pep inherits teams. How I imagine other managers building teams; They walk into the club, the club desolated, dust and cobwebs everywhere, then the manager has this machine that manufactures players or some managers lay eggs that later hatches into players. They never use money. I wonder why Pep is the only manager in the world that can't just lay eggs to hatch his own players or know how to use this mystical machine that produces players. Pep only know how to buy already-made players from other managers that suffered to produce them from scratch. Poor Pep. This is how foolish people make it look when it comes to Pep. When other managers sell players to buy upgraded players, it is called buiding. When Pep does the very same, it is called anything else....inheriting...chequebooking and all sorts of absurd rubbish. People are just mad. People talk about Ferguson building Man Utd from scratch, yes it's true. But that's because the football world was more forgiving towards Fergie as he could afford to go several seasons trophyless without the world killing him. The question now is can Pep go 2 seasons, just 2 seasons trophyless in this day and age without him being criticized and sacked?? This is a reality. When Pep was trophyless in his very first season at City, he was criticized, called a fraud...who remembers when Pep was called Fraudiola? Pep was mocked, Pep was choked. But it was okay for Klopp to go trophyless for his first 4 seasons at Liverpool. Alex Ferguson won 2 Champions Leagues at Man Utd in 26 years, that's an average of 1 Champions League in 13 years. Pep has been at City for barely 7 years, winning every title in England, yet he will only be remebered for not winning the Champions League at City. But it was okay for Ferguson to win the Champions League once in 13 years with Man Utd, a bigger club than City. Jose Mourinho on the other hand is the highest spending manager in Premier League history, yet never won a Champions league in England. The same Chelsea that Mourinho failed to win the Champions League with was what the likes of Di Matteo and Tuchel won...but Jose isn't Pep. So it's forgivable, it's fine. Pep reached 3 Champions League semi-finals with Bayern, he was tagged a failure. Carlo Ancelotti took over from Pep at Bayern with that same squad, Carlo couldn't even reach a champions league semi final with Bayern, he isn't a failure because he's not Pep. I can go on and on. Pep is simply a victim of his own success and greatness. So the world just expects too much from him. Sometimes it is just unfair. Pep Guardiola is the Greatest manager of our time. I love him.

11 Leagues won in La Liga, Bundesliga and EPL over 14 years! Won the first sextuple ever. Won a treble in two different leagues. Enough said!

"Many managers fail at these top clubs" THANK YOU!! People need to hear that. They act as if Barcelona doesn't have a LONG list of failed managers or Bayern or City. Or as if those top clubs have never sacked any manager

Fantastic video

There is absolutely a line in the history of the sport that's pre-Pep and post-Pep, but there's a LOT of asterixes next to the man. He's a genius, yes, but he's the literal embodiment of "standing on the shoulders of giants" in being the culmination of the Total Football concept that's been slowly building for the past 60 years. He's absolutely a great tactical mind, but he's also perfectly capable of over thinking things and getting in his own way. He's talented at improving players, but his way of working is just as capable of sending a great player running out of one of his clubs. He created the greatest football side in Barca, but he just so happened to have the greatest youth generation led by the greatest footballer in history to lay the foundation of his legacy. Don't get me wrong. I'm not blaming the guy for any of the things handed to him. But his Barca side was essentially Messi and a youth generation trained in playing the perfect way for Messi to reach his peak. And I say this as someone who fell in love with Spanish football, Barca, and Pepe watching the end of the RIjkaard-era and Pep-Messi's rise. It was a perfect storm of the ideal Barca-Jax Manager with the perfect Barca-Jax golden generation and best player ever who performs his best in a Barca-Jax squad. He then goes to the biggest/most powerful club in Germany, and then to a club in the Prem that had been primed for his arrival for years. The man is a genius and deserves all the praise he gets. But from the outside looking in, he's had a lot of dominoes fall his way.

Just watched this after watching an United fan channel promoting a new synth mind drug which is a powerful mix of Salt and Copium. Thank you for preventing me from addicted to it. However, too bad that there are a lot football fans are drawn and addicted to it, thanks to a lot of fan channels openly promoting it.

The disrespect that Guardiola gets is unbelievable. The man evolves and adapts to the football climate for years. He also set the blueprint for how football is played today. Yes he does screw up sometimes but he does learn from his mistakes and fixes them. Pep Guardiola will go down as the greatest manager of his generation.

Winning/losing the league for most big club is not a big deal anymore but champions league is, it took him 6-7 years to do it so it will go on.

Finally the video we've all been waiting for

As good as this is, it’s still missing a whole lot of context. At City, Pep inherited a former title winning side so to try to downplay his expenditure since his takeover is negligent to the fact he he already had world class players in many positions. & some of the points used for buying players for cheap I.E. Halaand, when they just got lucky to have had Dortmund put such a low release clause bc had they been forced to pay his worth they would’ve had to pay closer to Neymar’s fee in reality.

No one talks about how much of a world class player Alvarez is. He’s been on the bench for most of the season but anytime he gets subbed he’s guaranteed to score a goal. Getting a player like that for 20M is the reason behind City’s success

This is the TRUE all want NEED TO KNOW.. THX YOU BRO !!

Rival fans can continue to live in denial, Pep will keep racking up the trophies

You didn't mention what I think is the most important thing. He's literally changed the way football is played around Europe at the highest level, and increasingly lower down the leagues. The style he developed at Barcelona has been adopted and adapted by clubs and mangers around the world. Many of the managers in the Premier league next season are disciples of Guardiola's philosophy of football (Arteta and Kompany for example) and there are many other managers around the world who model their tactical identity around Guardiola's ideas. Of course he himself has his own influences (which he acknowledges) but no one has innovated and changed the tactical landscape of modern football more than him. And the craziest thing is he is still developing those ideas further at Man City, even in this most recent season. His legacy will go one long after he retired in the way that football is played, even if many of us aren't paying enough attention to recognise it.

I'll be the first to agree that in the early days of the takeover city spent big and spent wreckessly but I think that over time under the current management City have been able to grow beyond the need for large cash injections from the gulf and has grown to a point of being financially sustainable. The city side that just won the treble makes shrewd sensible signings. Remember it was city that was the early favourite in the race for Cucurella who is himself a Barcelona product so would have fit in perfectly to a Guardiola side but ultimately City weren't gonna get held hostage and be forced into meeting Brightons demands wheras newly minted Todd Bohley jumped to scoop up a Guardiola transfer target at any price. In the end City went and got Sergio Gomez from Anderlacht. Now this summer City can go sign somebody like Josko. Even before the Bohley takeover Chelsea spent close to 100 million on Romelu. City lost out on Harry Kane but its cuz they didn't get Kane or Romelu they were able to get Haaland we lost out on Cucurella but were getting Josko, sometimes you miss out on a transfer target in one window but if you're patient an even better option might become available down the road at half the price I also think Chelsea really has suffered from the departure of Peter Chech and Marina Granovskia, they were a huge part of Chelsea club infrastructure during the Roman era

We mustn't forget the fact that Guardiola towards the end of his career went to go play in Mexico with Dorados de Sinaloa. He went because the coach for Dorados was a friend/colleague that he admired, Juanma Lillo, who also was his assistant at Man City a few years go. By then, Juanma would let him coach on the sidelines during the game, sort of a player coach of sorts. And then that also got him closer to Argentine coach Ricardo LaVolpe, who was the Mexican national coach during the Confed Cup 05 and World Cup 06. LaVolpe is famous for his style out of playing out of the back but with a 3 back system. Crazy but interesting stuff!

I am bias, because I was on his side from the beggining. And watching how he transformed Barca in few months, never doubt him ever. The game never lies, and the quality of the game his teams plays is unbelievable. I really believe he is the greatest manager of this era, by FAR and is one of the biggest influencers ever, on how this game is played. The expectations from him, says it all. The standard for this man is on another lvl.

Nice vid 👌

Man is a genius. Just love him ❤

Off topic but you look exactly like Brian Rast. Good video too!

I'd say he's the most intelligent in terms of tactics, and his man management is amazing as well. However, unless he's at a club with huge resources, he won't be able to implement what he wants. So as an Everton fan if I was given a choice between Pep and Klopp (if he had never managed Liverpool) I'd pick Klopp because he doesn't necessarily need the huge investment to make a team play well.

Another area not picked up on here. Everyone has a go at Pep's spending, but the facts are that the vast majority of the time, he improves the players he buys. Look at Akanji, most thought he was some washed up but part player and he's been a rock in his first season, often playing out of position but doing brilliantly. Aguero scored his highest number of goals under Pep, and it's not like Mancini or Pelagrini had him in defensive teams when playing under them. This is another reason players like to work with him, as they know he'll improve them

I must say you're spot on with literally everything you said. I've tried to reason with some of these haters and it's to no good. When a club like City gains so huge success it's normal there'll be hate and especially from fans of these former great clubs who's now no more than mediocre. Envy is a powerful drug and they can't handle it, so they become internet trolls only out to hurt, not listen to reason or have a dialogue. It's sad. The alledged breaches are what I just stated. Alledged. It's not up to City to prove their Innocence. It's up to the board to prove them guilty. Until then it would be wise for all the haters to keep quit and just watch. As a City fan I'm sure we'll go free of them. I've spend 100+ hours researching the case and if I can see City are not guilty everybody would. But all in all it's very disgusting the way people are talking about us. But with glory and success it's totally normal. But that's just imo. We'll see when the time comes.

In Guardiola we're experiencing greatness. It will be sorrow seeing him retire.

I like your understanding of how the world works ❤

he left la liga and bundesliga knowing EPL is the most competitive league in the world

Yes he's is definitely the greatest ever the goat and if was managed of barcelona in the last few years he would be more better then previous manager with the same players if are they have now

I’ve been saying this since 2011. Pep Guardiola is the best football manager in history. But people said I’m a biased Barca fan 🤷‍♂️

Haaland went scoreless the last important games he contributed but any other coach would have freaked out. That is why you need a midfield that is not afraid to score.

if he does leave city it'll be interesting to see him in serie a and see how he does since it's the league where you deal with what you get i think

Are you making a video on Ange? I'd love to watch that. Heard he plays good football and all that. As an Arsenal fan, my interest is piqued.

Great video Adrian! Really highlighting what’s most important to us City fans. We’re not denying the allegations, we’re just enjoying the beauty that’s on display.

It is always like this. Only when one is gone, then everyone praise him.

I rate Pep a lot. Easily, in my top 5 greatest. Personally, I find Mourinho’s moments with Inter and Porto more impressive. But that should never be seen as an indictment against Pep.

Pep has been awesoe for football. He's got a lot better at interviews too.

Pep is simply a bald genius. he is a top manager so he'll go to top clubs. I don't get why people can't understand this. He started at a top club, then his trajectory will be rising up only. Why would he go to a club when he's getting offers from clubs who'll give him what he wants? He wants to win trophies, he wants to be there everyday winning. When in far future- when he'll seem finished( which I cannot ever see it happening because common it's pep, he averages like 2 trophies every year as a manager) but when it'll happen, he'll manage a small club then we can put this to bed because he'll be great then too

Barcelona and Bayern fall into the big club trope however him going to Man City kinda defeats that point. Bayern and Barca were the two biggest teams in their league/country. Man city on the other hand, not so much but he went because he was promised money and funds to make it a big team. If the teams are not already stacked like Barca and Bayern, he has unlimited funds to make it that way. Doesn't take away from his elite coaching skills but something to consider. Mourhinio requested Drogba, whatever the fee and made it work. Pep can request whoever. Imagine if other coaches had the same unlimited funds.

Dont look at net spend as a money. Look at it how many players they brought in...

There's a lot of merit to what Pep does and has done. He probably is the goat regarding managers, but many would like to see him take on a side that is not the most dominant in the country. Even Mourinho and Ancelotti have done that.

Every fan should watch this vid, the number of Premier League fans who write off City's treble winning side as fake, manufactured, no home grown talent (looking at you Man U fans of 1999 being ever so ready to shove that down everyone's throats at a moments notice). All these haters are too damn blind to the fact that City didnt buy the Champions League by bribing the officials or bribing the opposition team to play badly, the City team won the treble with pure hardwork and the class of a well oiled squad who gives their 110% every game. As a Chelsea fan, I was rooting for City to win the treble because they deserve it, I didnt care about them being the 2nd English club to win the treble but the tears and the despair of the Man U fans will forever be one of the most laughable moments in my memory because they are so deluded into believing everything Man City does is wrong and unfair because they have the money to do so.

I agree

Chelsea, PSG, Man United. All of these club had invested more money than City. None of them play like City, wins like City. It is all Pep's doing.

Pep Guardiola is the Albert Einstein of Football Managing/Coaching/Strategizing

I don't think counting Chelsea as a failure is fair. One bad transitional season with new owners, bloated squad and an incompetent manager isn't failure. They've won every major trophy possible and they've won it at least twice. If Poch doesn't get European football next season, only then would I start thinking about the "failure" tag.

After spending a literal fortune since 2011? LOOOOOOOOL How about stop taking Zidane for granted.

TBH Most mature football fans accept that Pep is a genius and what he's done is amazing and unrivalled. It's the majority of the usual, nasty, immature, jealous football fans that just can't give Pep any credit and kudos for his amazing work. It's pathetic and such an indictment on football fans in general.

What pep has done with city is spectacular and hes is one of the greats. Taking them from mid table to champions league winners even if they spent a lot they spent right, united shows how wrong that can go, but ive always found it weird that players would go to city for less than they are valued at i always thought it was the draw of pep and my jealousy as United fan. But even if they charges are true dont let it tarnish the beauty of that team playing together. (other than haaland, they got him for 60 million there has to be something shady going on with that deal😂)

Correction at 5:12 it was 16-17 seaspm not 15-16

a genuinely masterful take on why pep is great

In comparison, would NASA send an electrician to the moon?

1:28 surely hes not alone what about jose with Porto and Inter?

City Treble driven by 20M Gundo,15M Akanji,15M Alvarez Foden and Rico from Academy Pep can't win with Small Clubs?🤔

Pep Guardiola has not been taken for granted. It's bitter and jealous Man United, Liverpool and Arsenal fans and their media darlings that are running a agendas. The rest of the world has complete respect for what Pep has done as a manager. His rivals are desperate, and it's understandable. But make no mistake and thing their voices are bigger.

People say pep bought the title. But, actually, Man City bought Pep, they bought the best.

I still cant believe Pep failed to win the UCL with Bayern Munich. Under Pep, Bayern were playing some incredible football.

I will add some correction facts about this video: 1.5:10 The season where Pep Guardiola was a City manager happened in 2016-17. Also, Jose Mourinho isn't only the guy who stopped Pep Guardiola's domination. When City only finished 3rd (and the only season where Pep Guardiola achieved trophyless in his career), the winner of Premier League was Chelsea under Antonio Conte. 2020 saw Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool winning the Premier League (and the top-flight football in 30 years), which would be the last manager other than Pep to ever won the Premier League in the last 5 years (he was also, ironically, the last manager to ever won the Bundesliga while not being a Bayern Munich manager). Klopp was also facing Pep in 2013-14 and 2014-15, when he was still at Borussia Dortmund. 2.7:33 Pep Guardiola didn't manage a 3-peat for the Champions League with Barcelona. In addition to semifinal exit by Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan that won the Italians a Treble, his side also lost the same stage two years later by an ultradefensive play from Chelsea, who also won the Champions League after the club had sacked the manager mid-season. This means he actually failed to made 4 in a row. Zinedine Zidane of Real Madrid only achieved this unique feat.

Guardiola just needs to win silverware and possibly the champions league with a team in Serie A and he will get that universal respect that his peers like Wenger, Ferguson, Mourinho, Anchelotti, and Zidane.
