Pep Guardiola - A Decade of Unprecedented Success is a detailed, vivid retelling of an era in which the Catalan manager redefined English football.
With 20 trophies won, a series of longstanding records broken and a style of football unmatched by any other side, Pep’s City tenure stands as one of the most decorated and celebrated in the history of football.
Widely seen as one of the greatest managers the game has produced, Guardiola took over at the Etihad in 2016 and was immediately faced with questions and doubters. Would his style work in the Premier League? Could he cope with the unique challenges presented by English football? And would he last longer than a few years before moving elsewhere?
