Manchester City’s esteemed manager, Pep Guardiola, has issued a cautionary message to his rivals Manchester United, asserting that they will not revive the glory days experienced under the iconic reign of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Guardiola’s statement emerged during the build-up to the highly-anticipated Manchester Derby set to take place at Old Trafford this Sunday.
The astute Spaniard steered City to an unprecedented Treble last season, thereby mirroring the pinnacle of achievement reached under Ferguson’s stewardship.
Throughout Ferguson’s illustrious tenure at United, the club secured an impressive total of 13 Premier League titles, along with two Champions League triumphs.
When Guardiola was asked if he believed that similar success would eventually grace the red half of Manchester, he responded by saying, “Perhaps not in the same manner that Sir Alex Ferguson commanded during his formidable reign. At that time, there were only two or three dominant teams. However, at present, there is an abundance of clubs contending for greatness, each guided by remarkable managers—leaving little room for replication.”
