Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City manager, has revealed who he believes is the greatest Premier League manager of all time.
Rather than choosing big names like Arsene Wenger, Jose Mourinho, or Carlo Ancelotti, Guardiola named Sir Alex Ferguson, the legendary Manchester United coach, as the best.

Ferguson is Pep Guardiola Best EPL Manager
Guardiola didn’t hold back in his praise for Ferguson.
He said, “In this country and all around the world, Sir Alex Ferguson is the best.” He added, “Being close to one of the most important managers of all time is an incredible honour for me,” according to Mirror.
It’s no surprise that Pep Guardiola respects Ferguson’s achievements. Ferguson holds the record for the most Premier League titles, with 13 to his name.
That’s why many people still regard him as one of the greatest managers to ever coach in football. Guardiola, on the other hand, has won five Premier League titles, placing him second on the list. Wenger and Mourinho both have three titles each, but Guardiola clearly acknowledges the legacy Ferguson left behind.
As Guardiola continues to make his mark in football, this statement shows the respect even top managers have for Ferguson’s extraordinary achievements during his time at Manchester United.
