Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola’s decision to stay in English soccer was welcomed by rival Premier League coaches on Friday. However, it also sent shockwaves around the league as many managers are left wondering how they can possibly take down the juggernaut that is Manchester City under Guardiola’s leadership.
Despite the official announcement from Manchester City officials, many fans and analysts alike had speculated that Guardiola might be tempted to leave England behind in search of a new adventure in Spain or Italy. This speculation arose following rumors regarding his disagreements with the English media, his desire to manage a national team, and lastly his ability to win nearly every domestic trophy the English Premier League has to offer.
Guardiola showed the other side of this scenario by announcing his commitment to stay at the Etihad Stadium and expressing his clear desire to continue his ongoing legacy with the Sky Blues. This move not only strengthens Manchester City’s ambitions of regaining the Premier League title but also possibly their first-ever UEFA Champions League trophy.
However not everyone shares the excitement for Guardiola’s commitment to Manchester City. This news was met with some dismay from rival teams who very well know the immense amount of challenge Guardiola’s team poses to any opposition on the pitch. Jurgen Klopp of Liverpool, Mikel Arteta of Arsenal, and Thomas Tuchel being the few managers of several dozen who might be found quivering at the thought of such gigantic re-enforcement of an already solid team.
Regardless of the challenge that they face, most managers maintain a healthy relationship and respect the genius that is Pep Guardiola. It is in fact a kind gesture by them to appreciate the tenacity and legacy brought forward by such an influential football manager.
However ultimately, rivalry trumps mutual appreciation - any given day will have them readying with the most tactical strategies to upend Guardiola’s aspirations. What’s next? Will this decision by Pep Guardiola add more twists and turns in England’s top football league?
