EPL: Guardiola names greatest manager in England 

Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola, has named legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson as the greatest manager in England.

The Spaniard spoke at his pre-match press conference ahead of Man City’s final Premier League tie against Aston Villa on Sunday.

“He [Ferguson] is the greatest in this country,” Guardiola said.

“The tenure, the time, and for many, many reasons… I’m happy that Sir Alex Ferguson, the greatest, could see.

“I’m pretty sure [to] Sir Alex, we are not the ‘noisy neighbours’, we are the ‘neighbours’. Just ‘the neighbours’. And I’m happy that he has been watching.”

Ferguson retired three years before Guardiola joined Manchester City in 2016 after leaving Bayern Munich.
