Congratulations Pep.

“Yeah, but I’d like to see him manage a League 2 club with no transfer budget.”

The number of times I’ve seen people dismiss his achievements with bollocks like that is unbelievable. I’m firmly of the opinion that he would even get Bury into the Prem with a promotion every season if he was parachuted in there at level 9 of the pyramid.

Pep's first job was Barcelona B in the fourth tier.

Won the title by changing the style and mentality to the point that they were reckoned to be be better run than the first team.

I agree that this "League Two" thing is bollocks (like asking Rembrandt whether he's any good at cutting-in). But Pep's done it anyway.

Even Sky had to acknowledge it

Rightly so, if it had been anyone else, then only 3 out of the 7 seasons city have won the title would our manager have picked up the premier league manager of the year.
Still a discrace that Pardew and Pulis won it at the expense of Mancini and Pellers.

I had to laugh watching the media outlets desperately pushing for other managers. That a manager that's won the title for a third time and got his club into two major finals as well, should lose out to Gary Cox as some pundits suggested was plainly ludicrous.

This. It was do funny to watch.

I think it was the COMPLETE destruction of Bayern Munich, Arsensl and then Real Madrid that actually sealed it for Pep.

Congratulations Pep Guardiola LMA and PL Manager of the Season.

Shit looking award but congrats Pep!

It’s a giant smokie…Peps gonna let it rip on the pitch in Istanbul just as Gundo lifts the trophy

I'm buzzing and our genius deserves it trillion %, I'm just surprised they didn't give it to ANY other, due to the sole reason he is City's manager. It must of killed them giving it Pep. :)

Incidently these awards have not been reported in the Guardian, Daily Telegraph or independent. Nor can I see it in the Times either. That should tell you everything you need to know about serious UK Sports Journalism.
Neither was is in the Mirror, Star or Sun.
ONLY the Mail reports it.
Perhaps it doesn't happen if nobody reports it. Well in the Sports hacks heads anyway.

Football genius. Not as knowledgeable as some on here though.
