Former Manchester City captain: Guardiola has been raising the bar and he wants to win every game

Live bar On January 23, Manchester City former captain Andy Morrison said in an interview with Manchester City's official website that Guardiola's consistently high standards have made him the fastest manager in Premier League history to score 500 points.

In the 23rd round of the Premier League yesterday, Manchester City drew 1-1 with Southampton. That puts manager Pep Guardiola at the Premier League milestone of 500 points in just 213 games, significantly less than the original record of 18 games. Since taking charge of Manchester City, Guardiola has led the team to all domestic honours, including lifting the Premier League title three times in the last four seasons. Andy Morrison believes that such success is the result of the Spaniard's constant desire to reach new heights every season.

Morrison said: "Pep [Guardiola] has gained an incredible reputation in Barcelona, at Bayern Munich. In those places, he won everything he could win. I think that the job of any club manager is to raise the bar and raise the level of the club. I think, judging by the record he's broken since he's been in charge of Manchester City, he's done these things. Even this season, he's still raising the bar year after year and wants to win every game he can win. ”

"In my opinion, he always makes his already strongest team stand out. This is his desire to be the best, persevering nature, and this can only come from within him. No matter what the game, what the goal is, how to prepare, he does everything meticulously. He wants to win every game and wants to keep that momentum going for as long as possible. ”

In this extraordinary Manchester City tenure, the Champions League title is the only honour that Guardiola has not yet touched. Last season, he led City to the Champions League final for the first time in their history, but unfortunately failed to win the club's first European trophy since 1970. However, Morrison believes that whether Or not City wins in the Champions League, Guardiola is already a legend at the Etihad Stadium. He said: "It's too easy to say 'Pep was brought in by Manchester City to win the Champions League' and no coach can be asked by a club to win the Champions League. ”

"It could be the combined result of a lot of things – the club has to have the right players at the right time, in the right place, everything has to be right. When you're in a cup competition, for me, I don't understand how anyone would say that. ”
