Josep Guardiola (born 18 January 1971 in Sant Pedro, Catalonia, Spain) is a former Spanish footballer. He is currently the football coach and coaches Manchester City F.C. He has been the head coach of Barcelona B, FC Barcelona and FC Bayern Munich.
In 2008, Guardiola became Barcelona manager, completing the Treble in his first season in charge and six in 2009. In 2011, Guardiola led Barca to another Champions League title. In 2013, Guardiola became Bayern Munich manager and led the team to the longest winning streak in the five major leagues (19 consecutive wins) in his first season. In his three seasons at bayern, bayern have successfully won the Bundesliga title. He became head coach of Manchester City F.C. in 2016 and led the team to the Premier League and League Cup in the 2017/18 season. In 2018/19 he led Manchester City as the first team to win the League, FA Cup and League Cup crowns in a single season.
As coach Guardiola emphasized passing and standing, carrying forward the tiki-taka tactics. Under the world's top coach, many phenomenal players have also been trained.
Leo Messi
As Messi's head coach, Guardiola is indispensable to Messi's growth, and Guardiola's tactical thinking is subtly integrated into Messi's blood. Messi and Guardiola's relationship is very deep, Messi adhered to Guardiola's tactical ideas, integrated into his top skills, always able to carry the banner of the entire team's attack!
Guardiola's four years at the camp Nou were also the four years that Messi remained in the best physical condition (only two weeks out of injury), and the attendance was a big level higher than in any other managerial period. This shows Guardiola's ability to use on players.
Raheem Sterling
Sterling was originally just a fast horse on the side, as long as the football was stuffed to the side, Sterling could quickly advance to the enemy position, and then there was no then, the pass was basically lost, the shot was varied and did not advance, coupled with its twisted footwork, the spokesperson of the real "happy football".
After Guardiola entered the Etihad Stadium, Sterling has improved rapidly and has been improving, regardless of passing, running position, and shooting, and has now become the biggest offensive reliance on Manchester City's forward line, once 49 million euros, now 140 million euros, if it is an actual transfer, the value is expected to be more than 180 million euros. From the first laughing star, progress to the first emperor star. Sterling is the player who has improved the most under Guardiola.
Leroy Sane
After Sane defected to Guardiola, under the tutelage of Guardiola, Sane's speed characteristics were fully utilized, and his small skills were strengthened, becoming the sharpest knife on the left side of Guadmann City's attack, and the limelight was straight to Gesterlin.
However, from the late 2018-2019 season, because of the problem of attitude, coupled with the idea of Sanexi's side cross against Guardiola's underside, Sane was gradually snubbed, which was regrettable. But it is undeniable that Sane is undoubtedly the hot player in the transfer market right now, and the progress of Guardiola's men is his own capital.
Harvey
Harvey is definitely a grandmaster-level midfielder, not fast, not tall, and not in good health. But in the Spanish national team and Barca, Xavi is the unquestionable core.
Xavi once asked Guardiola, "Do I have a place in your team?" Guardiola's response was "I can't imagine what the team would have done without you!" Under Guardiola, Xavi showed his strengths in a comprehensive way: diligent running, accurate passing, light escape, good vision. Under Guardi's hands, Xavi has truly grown into a generation of grandmasters in midfield.
De Bruyne
De Bruyne, a former Chelsea outcast, came to Manchester City and saw a 180-degree comeback. His passing skills show the level of a super-first-class master, and Tintin's ability to read the game, the ability to direct the ball and the ability to cross, are all top-notch. It can be said that De Bruyne is definitely the number one forward in the current world.
Guardiola's pointing out to him and the training he taught De Bruyne how to do it helped the midfield master tremendously. De Bruyne's attitude towards the game is even more admirable, whether it is behind or ahead of the game, it will always be one of the most scrappy manchester City on the pitch.
Buttsketz
Barca at the time had Yaya Toure and Keita, but in his first season in charge, Guardiola put Busquets, who had not yet been tested in the competition, in the team's midfield. Guardiola led Butzkates in the second team and understood that he was a down-to-earth player with a lot of room for development.
Busquets has been questioned because he lacks fancy skill and outstanding ability compared to other talented players in the team. But Guardiola didn't care about it, he trusted espanyol so much that he eventually helped Busquets become one of the best midfielders in the world.
Iniesta
Iniesta is definitely a fan of Guardiola, and as early as Guardiola was still coaching the second team, people from the first team often revealed something to him. Iniesta went to Guardiola's office more than once to express his heartfelt feelings. Guardiola's trust in him also allowed him to truly grow into a midfielder at the level of a world master. Iniesta and Xavi formed a midfield duo drive, leaving Barca's midfield unbeatable.
David Silva
David Silva has always been Guardiola's favorite player, Silva was previously known as a magician for Manchester City, and his imaginative passing provided Manchester City with a steady stream of power.
After Guardiola came to Manchester City, Silva became Manchester City's attacking metronome, he understood Guardiola's thinking and was a true "rhythm master". Silva's role is very obvious when facing strong teams, and Manchester City, which lacks Silva, often loses its rhythm and does not have a satisfactory result in strong dialogue.
Silva is also 33 years old, and we wish him a perfect end to the end of his career.
Stones
Stones is one of the few ball-out defenders in England in recent years! Of course, in Manchester City's first season, the combination of Stones and Bravo also allowed Manchester City to lose a lot of points that should not be lost. But under Guardiola's guidance and trust, Stones gradually grew into the most trustworthy person on the defensive line. Fans must have been impressed by the scene where the Stones goalline was unblocked, and it was he who pulled back the failed Manchester City.
Pique
Pique is definitely the most improved defender under Guardiola, and after buying back Pique from Manchester United, Guatemala has trained Pique not only to score goals with set-pieces, but also to organize attacks with the ball, and to make a long pass with one foot. When the situation cannot be opened, it will also be used as a center to rush into the box, and fans also jokingly call Pique "skin center".
Pique is the most improved defender under Guardiola, the combination of Pique and Puyol can be said to be the best partner, and Pique trained by Guardiola has also become the best in the world in a very short period of time, becoming the long-term defensive core of Barca.
Mascherano
Little Margo was originally an iron-waisted character in Liverpool, after coming to Barca, with the help of Guardiola, Little Margo changed from the back position to play center-back, and under the guidance of Guardiola, he quickly became a defensive iron guard in the Barca backline, and the perfection of its transformation had to make people admire Guardiola. His partnership with Pique was definitely Barca's first choice at the time.
Boateng
Boateng came to Bayern from Manchester City with great success, winning the Treble with Bayern in 2013.
Guardiola gave him a lot of guidance in terms of technique and tactics, especially the latter's excellent long-passing ability, and Boateng's progress was obvious to all.
Valdez
Under the influence of Guardiola, the improvement that Valdés achieved in Barcelona was very obvious.
Although before Guardiola took over barca, Valdés was Barca's undisputed number one goalkeeper. But after Pep Guardiola took office, the Spanish goalkeeper's performance on the pitch became extremely influential, and his stable performance and good mentality also ensured that he became a good goalkeeper!
Kyle Walker (purely funny)
In the Champions League group stage, Manchester City drew 1-1 away to Atalanta and City had a guest goalkeeper Kyle Walker.
