Pep Guardiola admits he wouldn’t win anything if he didn’t manage teams like Man City – The Sun

MANCHESTER CITY boss Pep Guardiola admits he would win nothing if he didn't manage big teams and says he has been blessed with coaching extraordinary players.

The 49-year-old – who has won titles in Spain, Germany and England – has often been criticised for only achieving success due to being able to buy whoever he wants.

And the ex-Barcelona and Bayern Munich gaffer has seemingly agreed with his critics after declaring he has been lucky by having the resources at his disposal.

During his reign at the Nou Camp, the former Spanish international won an incredible 14 trophies in four years.

He then won three Bundesliga titles in each of his three seasons in Bavaria, as well as winning two domestic cups.

Since replacing Manuel Pellegrini at the Etihad, he has guided City to back-to-back Premier League titles, while also achieving success in the FA Cup and twice in the League Cup.

But despite his impressive resume, Pep has played down his achievements.

Asked by a reporter if he's the best manager in the world, Guardiola said: "I was. What is the best coach? I never felt like I am the best.

"Never in my life.Even when I won six titles in a row and won trebles. Never felt that.

"I won because I had extraordinary players at big clubs. The incredible managers don't have these players. They don't have these clubs.
