Manchester City‘s impressive victory in the Premier League has cemented their position as one of the greatest teams in English football history. With a squad value of €1.05 billion, they boasted the most impressive lineup in the Premier League, and it came as no surprise when they clinched the title in late April following Arsenal‘s unexpected defeat to Nottingham Forest. The title win marked Man City‘s fifth win in six seasons, an incredible achievement, and a testament to their unparalleled dominance.

However, this title win was more than just a success for Man City, it also celebrated the incredible coaching talent of manager, Pep Guardiola. Since taking the helm of Man City in 2016, Guardiola has guided his team to multiple victories and league titles, cementing his place among the greatest managers to have ever graced the English top-flight. But how does he compare to other Premier League managerial legends? Let’s take a look.

Guardiola’s success in the Premier League has seen him secure two more league titles than both Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger, with five wins under his belt. However, this pales in comparison to Sir Alex Ferguson’s stunning 13 victories during his incredible tenure as Manchester United manager. But, it’s worth noting that at only 52 years of age, Guardiola has plenty of time to catch up, with his current contract at Man City running until 2025.

When discussing managerial greatness, statistics are crucial, and on this front, Guardiola is certainly up there with the very best. His team’s average of 75% win percentage compares favorably to Ferguson’s 65% during his time at the top, with Guardiola’s impressive record an indication of his team’s dominance during his time as Man City‘s boss.

Ferguson’s exceptional record in the Premier League still makes him the undisputed king of English football, but Guardiola’s current stint in the league’s hot seat is impressive. His team’s style of play and the dominance they’ve shown during his tenure make him one of the best managers in the game right now, and it is likely that he will secure more league titles in the coming years.

In conclusion, Guardiola’s impressive performance as Manchester City‘s manager makes him stand out as one of the Premier League’s greatest coaches. While he may not be at the top of the all-time list just yet, the records he has broken, and the victories he has secured prove that he is quickly on his way to the top. There is no doubt that with his incredible coaching talent, he will secure many more impressive wins in the future and cement his place among the greatest English football managers of all time.
