In the just-concluded 17th round of the Premier League, Manchester City swept Leeds United 7-0, the team won their 13th victory of the season, and Manchester City also ranked at the top of the Premier League table. This game not only made Manchester City at the top of the table, but also had great significance for Guardiola himself, because the first goal of this game was the 500th goal scored by the team in the Premier League after Guardiola took charge of Manchester City, and he only used 207 games, he broke the record previously held by Klopp. I have to say that Guardiola's offensive football is indeed worthy of the name.
Before the start of this game, During Guardiola's tenure, Manchester City had scored 499 goals in the Premier League, and Guardiola directly changed this statistic to 506 goals in this game. And Pep Guardiola reached the Premier League 500-goal milestone in just 207 games, a statistic that broke the Premier League record. In Guardiola's first season in charge, City scored 80 goals, 106 in the second season, 95 in the third, 102 in the fourth season, 83 last season, and has scored 40 this season. Guardiola's most goalscored was Aguero's 82 goals, followed by Sterling's 76.
What is the concept that Guardiola completed the Premier League 500-goal milestone in just 207 games? Just look at the data of other famous coaches. Previous record holder Klopp led Liverpool to 500 Premier League goals in 234 games, 27 more than Guardiola. It took Sir Alex Ferguson 265 games to achieve 500 goals, fourth-place Wenger took 271 games to achieve 500 goals, fifth Mourinho took 289 games to achieve 500 goals, and sixth-placed Benitez took 329 games to achieve this achievement.
Look at the ranking behind Guardiola are all football masters, they may have their own advantages, but in terms of attack, they are not as good as Guardiola. Of course, for Guardiola, the most important thing is not his own record, but whether he can lead the team to the championship. After this game, Guardiola's team continues to be at the top of the Premier League, and Manchester City is likely to win the half-way championship, if Manchester City continues like this, then they are likely to win the Premier League title this season, and this will be the fourth Premier League title in Pep Guardiola's five seasons under manchester City!
