Greater than Sir Alex Ferguson — Liverpool legend sparks outrage with Guardiola admission
Guardiola’s ridiculous achievements with Manchester City have seen many fans, pundits, and football lovers label him the greatest manager of all time.
Guardiola's Manchester City Legacy
The Spaniard has built a winning culture in Manchester that many across the globe will be seeking to emulate and the Citizens are not done yet. There is still the small matter of the treble.
Pep’s men are in the final of the FA Cup and Uefa champions league, win both and his legacy will be cemented forever.
Speaking on Sky Sports, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher stated that the Man City boss will be top of the list of names considered the greatest managers of all time.

“He is the most important person at Manchester City, not Haaland, not De Bruyne, and maybe not even the money. Right now in terms of the domination they have had in terms of five titles in six years under Pep Guardiola,” He said.
“I think we are watching one of the greatest managers of all time. He is going to be talked about like Rinus Michels, Arrigo Sacchi, Johan Cruyff and I think he will be on top of that list.”
Verdict
Manchester United fans will surely be outraged at the comments with many of the Old Trafford persuasion believing Sir Alex Ferguson to be the greatest of all time.
For now though, Guardiola needs the treble to give himself a shot at being called the GOAT.
