Pep in league competitions is a cheat code like we’ve never seen before. I don’t think we will see another manager in our lifetime that can win the league at the clip he has.
Pep is the GOAT already. Dominated three different leagues with insane influence. Dont think we will ever see a manager repeat this feat.
No, always came into a team of superstars, and with money to burn. Never done it with a team of nobody's (no offense)like Porto, or a team built from academy kids like Ferguson.
Kids that arnt even old enough to remember a full season of fergie judging Fergie as a manager is comical.
Are you kidding me? Hasn’t the treble already solidified him?
Carlo…full stop!
by far
This entire video was wrong. A simple search on google shows he has 3 champions leagues…
Guardiola is extending his contract you salty kids🤫😂😂
Pep has been the best for a long time. Another champions league just increases the gap.
Goat in what? In losing to Ancelotti? Winning only one CL with City having infinite amount of money? Coaching a team that paid to Negreira for decades? Coaching another team that accumulated more charges in 10 years than Real Madrid trophies in 100 years? Please.
I think based on the records City has both broken and set takes Pep clear of Fergie. Treble, quad, centurions, and 4 in a row.
What you mean make him the goat. Pls name one better.
Anytime these football analysts say guardiola was handed the best players at Barcelona to give him success… I just know they know they pull stuff out of their backside… This dude mentioning busquets that was brought from the feeder team by pep… Or Iniesta that barely had minutes or xavi that was just starting to get his footing in the team…are these guys teenagers not to have know about that Barcelona team…
Pep didn’t buy Kevin de byurne
City bought the titles. He had Messi at Barca. Germany is a one team league. Klopp was a better manager in recent times. SAF still GOAT.
Pep will extend his contract. He has already said he is ready to go again. So suck it up !
Pep didn’t buy Kevin
😂 in the pl pep is the goat just by the amount of trophies he won with city elevateing this team to global status.😂Fergi isnt the best cuz he ownly did it at United but pep won at Barcelona then Bayern Munich & now at MANCHESTER City. Pep is the greatest manager ever to manage in pl.
Carlo
Pep has already won The Champions League once more than Ferguson, and with 2 different clubs
He's already the goat.
He doesn't need to prove anything
That black guy just lost the plot. Pep basically CREATED Messi, Xavi and Iniesta. He really is a knob when it comes to football history.
115 more
If you're counting Fergie's lifetime honors, then you have to count Pep's Barca, Bayern and Mancity honors. That's the only way you can be fair
I found the guy with braided hair saying rubbish at 7:17 ,saying pep was given a team at Barca filled with great players ,that’s not true,that said said team they gave him couldn’t win the league and that played poor ,him even saying pep bought Sergio Bosquets is laughing and funny ,pep was the one who promoted a lot of those players and he bought not up to 2 players the year he came into management and he won treble 😂😂😂😂he’s the greatest
Messi wasn’t the greatest when pep first came to Barca lol😂,That season with pep was his first as the number 10,pep told Dinho he didn’t need him 😂 u guys don’t even know the game 😂😂
So let me get this correct..
Pep who has already won the champions league 3 times as a manager has to win the champions league for a 4th time this season to be classed as a better manager than Sir Alex who won just 2 champions league titles..
Not forgetting Pep has 9 semi final appearances in the competition as a manager which is a record..
17 match winning streak in the competition which is another record..
Has won a domestic league in 14 seasons out of 17 as a manager..
Sir Alex won 17 league title in his whole career which took him 18 seasons longer than Pep has spent as a current manager to reach just 17 in 35 seasons compared to Pep 14 in 17 seasons..
Pep has already won 21 domestic cup competitions .
Sir Alex won just 19 in his whole career if you do not include the charity/community shield..
I’m pretty sure when honours are listed like this their is only one clear winner already so please do youre du diligence if you want to have a serious debate for who’s the GOAT and it certainly doesn’t entail winning the UCL for that to clarify it..
Peps already the GOAT and these stats prove it..
Sir Pep 🐐
Doesn't matter CR 7 🐐 still better than pessi ❤
Pep is already the GOAT of coaches
Whats with ESPN becoming Man City's PR machine?
The argument is between Ancelotti the Don and Guardiola the Professor
Hi
How is pep the best? When he was always given the best players money can buy. That’s pure none sense. He’s a great but not the greatest. That title still belongs to Sir Alex! The 🐐!
The question is this…. Of you say Pep had Messi thats why he won a lot… By this are we agreeing that Messi is better than Ronaldo
IIt took Fergie how many years?? Its going to break all these clowns when Pep renews in Dec.
Ancelotti is the Goat. Period
So i ask should we city be found guilty the premier league shall never be entertaining coz facts are the other teams have spend so much yet the not at city level and it seems la liga shall dominate just like the spanish dominate England facts!!!!
Fergie only tops Pep on titles gained by longevity at 27yrs,Pep has won 6 titles in his 8 seasons in the premier league.
These guys speak about the PL like Americans speak about the NBA. Greatest of all time manager without considering world class managers outside the PL like Ancelotti or Sacchi. Just like when thee team that wins the NBA is the world champion.
This is not even a debate
The dominance
The football
Pep is undoubtedly the GMOAT
No he is the goat
GOAT by winning famers league? He should win Consecutive Champion league to be considered GOAT
That "Pep was given the keys at Barca" narrative is such a lie. Do you know where they finished quite literally the season before? Did you see him sell of Ronaldinho, the best player multiple ballon d'or winner? Did you not see him promote Sergio Busquets?
And they seem to think Xavi and Iniesta were already world beaters…NO…he MADE them into world beaters.
Its complete nonesense.
AsteriskFC, 115, 130. Absolutely not, will never be better than sir Alex or don carlo
