Pep Guardiola secured a 3rd Premier League title in a row as Manchester City boss, matching only Sir Alex Ferguson in the unprecedented feat.
At just 52 years old, the Spaniard has won 33 titles between his stints at Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Manchester City.
The coach has been a revelation at the Etihad in his time in Manchester - but just why is Pep so different to other managers, and how does he build such a high level of success in his teams?
Join JJ Bull in an in-depth look at Pep’s career and the incredible work he’s done at Man City.

One of the best Tifo IRL videos. They are always high quality, but the way this broke down Pep's evolution was so clear and concise.
No cap!
@@alphabeta2515 I like that RUclips gives me the option to 'translate' your comment to English lol
It’s funny because Haaland is quite happy to stay in position and not get involved in play but pro has decided he doesn’t want that with him 😂
@@nellyb1594 yeah, what language does that mean not one in?
@@StoutPropernot even chat GPT knows
Fascinating to think about the rise of Spain winning the Euros and World Cup through 2008-2012, which are the exact years that Pep was manager of Barcelona.
He then goes to Bayern Munich and in 2014, Germany win the world cup.
His presence and shift to England (along with Klopp's) has undoubtedly brought an influx of elite managers who are eager to prove themselves in the EPL as well. While this does not reflect a major tournament win for England, one could argue the England side is the best it has been in recent years.
It's probably all a coincidence, but it's definitely something I've thought about. 😅
Very valid points mate. Surprising that no pundit has ever talked about this... also sad that the Middlesbrough gaffer couldn't capitalize on the foundation work that Guardiola (& Klopp) did :|
If England wasn't managed by idiots they would have won World Cup by now...
@@arindamchugh649 Because everyone wants to say he bought the wins.. He spent billions to improve his team.. Can he do it in stoke.. All those stupid reasons
that's an interesting point. Pep also (unconsciously) help find the likes of Saka since Arteta has learned lots from Pep about tactics and also scouting for players
That Spanish team definitely played like Barcelona and had many Barca players.. even the then German coach Joachim Loew said that they were hard to beat as they played like Barcelona after Germany’s loss to Spain in 2010 WC semifinals ..,
Unreal. Not to try to minimise the effort that obviously went into making this but would love to see the same sort of break down on the tactical evolution of other coaches eg Conte, Klopp, Potter, Gasperini etc
I think it's easier to make such videos for Guardiola because he has consistently used the same tactics for years with just a few tweaks here and there. And his ways have been effective and revolutionary. Most of the other coaches keep changing how they play depending on the team and not on a consistent basis.
Big Sam too. We'll never his time managing England.
One of the greats.
Not good enough
They don't level up tactically..no need wasting Energy on them
Kloppp
Would be nice if Pep writes an autobiography of his footballing adventure and the various tactics he employed at different leagues at different times. Would be a top best seller for decades ig.
Almost every football fan would purchase that book fr
Personally, I'm just delighted that a spirit level has been brought into the Tifo office. Them pictures do be magnificently level.
People always said that he is only great because he already have great players and resources everywhere he goes, but people should know that to be a great manager you have to be good in man management and lead the team, get their respect. As you can see from PSG where huge amount of money and many star players are never enough
Do you think if you put your mum in charge of City or Bayern for 10 years she'd make 2 CL finals?
@@derrislie7771 Most people do. Including me. And mine certainly would reach 2 CL finals in 10 years at city.
@@danielwebb8402 that's why you are here commenting non sense and guardiola managing the city team.
It's such a lazy excuse especially when you see how other managers and clubs have wasted millions, if not billions. Sure, he spins his silks with gold, but it undoubtedly takes a master craftsman to work gold into the threads.
@Prabin T
"That's why"...
Because I have a parent? Most people have. Two.
I never knew Pep Guardiola was Canadian.
That explains a lot
Catalan ❤
im gonna have to do another south park marathon
@@harrybellingham98 interesting
Pep Guardiol-eh?
Imagine being so great that people are hating you for your greatness yet their teams are copying your philosophy even at academy level! They said pep cannot do it in england. Now everyone is doing it like pep lol.Pep is the most influencial coach of the 21st century tactically. When a guy like De Zerbi comes out and say he became a manager trying to emulate what pep did with barca, it says a lot. Not to mention those who worked or played under him like Kompany, Ten Hag, Arteta, Xavi and very soon Gundogan (Who is said to have the best coaching potential of all of them)
So pep has his own football philosophy school like pythagoras
This is what delusion looks like, pep is not even a top 4 manager. Whole career he's been a groupie coach hoping to dominant teams and splashing cash but hey he swings his hands on the sideline like a choir master
@@gowiuskymarie3302 😂😂😂hell yeah I’ll like to be this kind of choir master with 35 throphies (second most) behind ferguson with lesser years coaching 😂😂
@@Wealthgod10 bet you thought you did something there but in reality pep is just the kingsley coman of coaches😂😂. Bet he goes to coach psg next
@@gowiuskymarie3302 not bad I’ll say most important thing is he should finish his career as the most successful coach in Europe ever ! I’ll take that over anything brother
This was such a beautiful explanation, I almost cried. But for god's sake JJ, tuck in your labels!
Here's a handerchief for blowing your nose with. There, there.
These comments… name another manager who could turn John Stones into a world class midfielder, or make Jack Grealish a pressing machine
Look what ten hag did to AWB and rashford.
Are you ok ? Stones was a top cb from is Everton days and touted as the future of England defence and Grealish has been killing it from Villa days thats why paid 100 mil for him yes Pep should be credited for taking them to the next level but he has never transformed an average player into a WC 1 he gets them at a good level not like Kloppp did with Andy Robertson
@@ron2971 You mean how he turned an attacking midfielder in Zinchenko into one of the best LBs in the Prem? Or how Walker went from pacey RB to a CB/RB hybrid. Also Stones was not as good as he is this season, he was prone to errors early on and injuries. Slowly but surely he has been molded.
@@samudrasetu5896 did what to them? Played them in their usual position?
@@ron2971Robertson wasn’t average he was just playing at Hull. I could point to Zinchenko being part of a defence that set a English record for number of consecutive clean sheets or Akanji who couldn’t even start for Dortmund being able to help City to win the league and get to two finals having played everywhere across the backline.
My unpopular opinion regarding Guardiola (who I consider to be one of the best managers of all time, despite being a Real Madrid fan) is that his Manchester City team has a lot more merit than his Barcelona team. Yes, his Barcelona team is his most iconic and it has a great case to be considered the best club side of all time, but he already had most of the pieces when he was promoted as coach from Barcelona B. His greatest merit is promoting Busquets and Pedro, re-signing Piqué and Cesc, and the transfers of Alves and Villa. Other than that, he already had Valdés, Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Messi, Henry, Eto'o, etc at the club, you can even argue that Busquets and Pedro would have been promoted anyway. Let's not forget Puyol, Xavi and Iniesta were key pieces of Spain's 2008 EURO title and that Messi was already a BDO nominee before Pep's arrival.
While it's true that Guardiola has had an unlimited check book at Man. City, for me it is very impressive how he has added most of the pieces himself. Ederson, Walker, Stones, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodri, Bernardo, Sané, Mahrez, Gabriel Jesus, Haaland, Grealish, Álvarez, etc have all been signed by Guardiola, and most of them have improved tremendously under him, becoming essential in the domestic success of Man. City. For me, this has a lot more merit than a job where you inherit most of the players and then take them to glory.
Fair take but I disagree. Barca were in shambles when he took over. They had senior players who were underperforming in Ronadinho, Deco etc. Even Xavi was set to leave before Pep convinced him to stay. I think letting go of the big names and trusting others like Xavi as well as young players like Messi should not be underappreciated. Instilling the discipline, hardwork and tactical revolution that turned Barca into a reference point for football whilst being relatively inexperienced is his biggest achievement imo.
another thing is that Man City almost take Pep in 2012 actually
You are wrong, another coach would not have promoted Busquets and Pedro to the first team, when they were homegrown players who had not played in the first team, they would continue betting on those who were already there. Guardiola was not scared by putting a veteran like Yaya Toure to put a youth player like Busquets.
Wasnt it Guardiola who played Mascharano as a CB even though he was a central midfielder as he likes a ball playing CB, which is how he sees John Stones now
I cannot see Pep getting away with a season like Klopps at all & that's the pressure this man has been facing every year. He just cannot miss for a single season. if he wins it was about the Money, great players but never him. Him & Mourinho are the only 2 Managers with Haters. I've never heard anyone say " Ancelotti only won with great teams, he spent a lot , " SAF Kept on spending more than other managers for 20 years" , "Klopp has spent 800M+ on Liverpool but u never hear that ". Still needs to spend 300M+ to get something. But Standards are way up. Winning while playing great with that pressure is immense..
Yeah that's not true. Sir Alex had/has the most haters (Arsenal fans, Liverpool fans, City fans, Chelsea fans, and for some reason a lot of Pep/Barcelona fans who try to diminish what he did lol).
The truth is any record signing or big signing that Sir Alex made (Veron, Rio, Andy Cole) were all thanks to his own hard work when he re-built United from the ground up from 1986 to 1990. He ensured that the new scouting network was setup, the new youth academy was in place, and Carrington training facility was state of the art at the time. His initial success winning the PL and FA Cup came with 7 youth academy players. And if you look back at his press conferences, he was held to such high standards that even with the rule of "limited foreign players" allowed in UCL squads, he was expected to win the UCL every season or else his season was considered a failure.
@@shahzadirani never see him getting the hate like Pep's getting & I've never heard a single man in u.k or anywhere who said "united's failure if they Don't win UCL every season" but rather i heard he has a fantastic Domestic record which he did have. He's built he team & it took him years, currently i Don't see a Manager getting so much time to work on his team year after year. Just like players wanted to sign for SAF due to his work, there's a long list of players who joined city just because of Pep as well. I've never seen someone discrediting SAF even 20% in comparison to Pep.
WOW. I can't believe that someone on this planet is actually implying what Klopp has had similar to what Pep has had. Do you seriously think Klopp comes close to Pep's spending? Do you want me to show you the data showing how stupid this comment is comparing Klopp to Pep with his resources? Stop fanboying tryng to be create something to be outraged about.
@@samkelorashuza5949 you're right he doesn't have City's budget, but I think everybody gets kinda tired of people acting like he's using Brentford's
they might have the MOST haters, but plenty of other managers are severely disliked for their attitude or tactics like Tuchel, Simeone, Conte etc
Pep has clean slate with City. He built this team bottom up and they haven’t peaked yet. Staying the longest at city is indicator he want to build legacy. I honestly believe he will play an evolved version of total football with way tactics change in between game. The focus on defensive ball playing profile centre back will make it easy to rotate positions and if defensive is solid in their game the attack will be more potent. If the 30min of second leg of Real Madrid is anything to go buy it flashes of what is to come.
Phil Foden under Pep is one of potential to become best player of England. To say Foden will be heir to David Silva position show just highly he views him. This also includes Stones as well for years he saw potential to play as Liberio role.
Something not mentioned is the academy at City. All youth division at Man City all play like first team. Positional play is taught and Premier league team won three titles in row but guess what this was EXACTLY the same with 3 youth team below all doing 3 peat in bounce. Rico Lewis has be able to adapt when promoted to first team because culture is the same down to grass roots.
The vibes is La Masia 2.0 exists and with CGG model City are gearing up to dominate. This has been in the making 10 years since academy was rebuilt across the stadium.
Definitely going to go down as the greatest coach of all time by the time he's done; really needs to stop overthinking/bottling in the Champions League though.
Dw he will get the job done this time
@@jonathana6943 Hope so, hope he picks up a couple more after that too.
It's not just about the money guys. Other teams have a bigger spend than City in recent years. City just scouts better and plans better (a la consistent manager & plan w/ Pep).
I love how Tifo broke down Peps evolution as it mirrors what typically happens in an FM Save.
Carry over tactics from old teams, build great scout network, build 2 teams in one squad and have players play about 25-28 games per season to maximise fitness.
But really though. This is one of the Best vids from Tifo. Maybe remake with animations for the main Channel
It has a lot to do with the money. The moneys spent well, but the money is definitely a factor.
You can say other teams have spent more recently (very recently) but some of the charges against them are about them hiding their expenses
@@stevenlannister184hopefully you know Man U and Chelsea spent more with less success. Lazy thinking is always saying it is all about money
"It's not just about the money guys. Other teams have a bigger spend than City"
These people actually exist. I see them now and again. It's an actual real person typing this tripe and believing it. The massive scale and extent of their financial fraud was already revealed but these automatons will still carry on saying the same tired nonsense.
Fact: Man City have been accused of financial fraud, reporting more earnings than they actually had, allowing them to expend more money.
Also a fact: Man City have spend, regardless of that, less than Chelsea and Man United during that period of time.
Both true
Although City are an oil club and have been boosted with their money, as a united fan I have to give city credit because they used the money to bring in the right people, develop the academy and bring in a world class coach like Pep. Teams like PSG and Chelsea are examples of that you can have money, but if the right people arent in place then the money is just going down the drain
Probably the best video on this channel to date. Love Pep and ya know what, I love football
Positional play is the most beautiful form of football especially when it plays in different ways
I'm a lifelong Mourinho fan but gotta admit Guardiola is the most successful manager of our times.
love this style of video, made my evening when this popped up. very interesting and spot on analysis. you also predicted exactly what he would go on to do to beat arsenal the other week.. impressive
I used to tell my friends that Pep will break the PL with his way of playing back when City just signed him. I'm glad that he is a Cule at heart. ❤️💙
Wow what great foresight
@@SteRDLK a true genius
Cool
A great analysis video of his evolution, it is good to see as a visual supplement to the athletic tactics podcast where they discussed this bit of history as well. Particularly enjoyed the way his midfield changed from more of a diamond into a box, is there a benefit to this shape over a diamond or is it more a matter of him having Haaland who is better as a striker pinning the opponent CBs compared to Aguero/Jesus who can play a false 9 role?
I want to downplay his achievements because i support Manchester United but he really has launched City to the next level before him they weren't the dominant force they are now. Especially one that is so hungry for winning it is scary.
Thank you for everything you guys do. You have completely changed the way I watch football ❤️
Football is a beautiful game,
I will recommend you keep an eye on Barcelona next season
Pep devoted to his philosophy so much so that sometimes he micro-manage during the match.
9:00 so Flumenense style of play is terrible for stopping counter attacks since the players can roam anywhere in that team. Positional play seems to be the logical way to play football.
Top notch voiceover work! Had me in bits 😂
I also like the way Pep has persevered throughout the years when it comes to the Champions League. His teams almost always lose due to being caught on counterattacks. Instead of going defensive with his tactics, he's actually enhanced his team's control by adding an extra defender without compromising his attack. City play with four defenders, with only Stones being really good on the ball, and that has nullified opponents' abilities to expose City when the latter doesn't have the ball. Compare that to someone like Ancelotti. He does a great job of maximizing his best players' talents, but he simply doesn't have a way of playing that can guarantee that his team will only lose due to the nature of how sport is. With Benzema not having a heroic run in the CL, Real were less potent. On the other hand, Haaland was the most profligate City player against Real, but that had no effect on City.
Because unlike Benzema , haaland is useless in open play creating goals, he wants everything on a plate not necessarily tap ins but a one touch finish
As Tifo suggested in this video, Pep finally is playing with 5 defenders now.. he is going to win the CL.. Inter will be a walk in the park especially given Lukaku has no first touch. Haaland going to have a field day
Didn’t say Haaland once. Amazing
We’ve got….. guardioooolaaaa!
Great video, really interesting to see how Pep's evolved his tactics, understanding and coaching over time. Hopefully Arsenal, Liverpool and United can create new problems for City next year, because its always fascinating to see Pep's attempts to counter them.
Guardiola is immensely underrated. He is better than every manager the world has ever seen.
People realizing that money doesn’t mean anything if the manager isn’t actually good, and the players big egos aren’t put in check: 🗿
I mean I got some nice nice examples of clubs that had a lot of money but didn’t do well in the end because of their managers and egos.
1. man Utd have spent as much as city in the past 6 years but haven’t had even 1/8 of the success as man city.
2. PSG, big frauds. What else do I have to say?
3. Juventus, after their main core from the 2014/15 season left it was over.
People love to say that Pep had Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, and etc at Barcelona, yes he had those guys, but have you ever looked at the production of Messi before and after pep? The 4 or 5 seasons before pep Messi only scored a career high of about 20 goals in a season. After pep Messi was scoring 50, 60, and 70 goals in a singular season.
Have you guys not seen how much better young players become under man city? Cancelo was a very good young prospect for a while, but he seemed to have hit his ceiling by the time he joined Juventus, however a season after joining man city he was literally the best left back in the world. He’s done this for a lot of players, many of them seemed to have hit their ceiling of their potential and then pep walks in and a season later they become some do the best players in the world. Obviously this isn’t absolute and some players have stayed at their level when he arrived or they arrived. But he’s the only manager I know that has consistently every season brought out a new player that becomes world class.
Greatest manager ever!
No competition!
“One with an untwistable stomach” 💀💀
JJ’s impersonation of Pep is impressive ❤
You should make a video about Mourinho's evolution, his Roma side play some quite unique football compared to previous teams.
What does !quite unique" mean?
@@SteRDLK the way they defend and attack are much different to how his United, Chelsea, Real Madrid used to play. Roma have less pace than those teams and the formations is different. I notice his Roma team press the ball in their own systematic way when they defend. Also the defensive organisation isn't really parking the bus anymore. It's a lot more positional theres like 3-4 lines of players as opposed to 2. He also has players like Dybala in his team which made him adapt his tactics. So I'm curious about Tifo's analysis of his tactics at Roma.
I agree, from defence to defensive mid that Roma side is a well oiler machine, his Roma side however are so poor up front it is not funny, if he had atleast 2 more better than average options up front , Roma would have qualified for Champs Lg with that side. What he is doing with Roma is is simply amazing. Hope he wins Europa and tales Roma to Champs lg via that win. Then I think his work there is done...He needs to be managing a Champs Lg competing club..and get his 3rd Title
@@ekuniverse1 I don't care about his tactics, I mean the phrase "quite unique".
@@SteRDLK I'm talking about his unique tactics. compared to before. His team plays different football from any team I've seen.
The way man city is now is so different to what I’m used to. There’s so much more defensive solidity with have a 3-2 shape than a 2-3. The rotations that Pep can make with his players are so interesting.
Wonderful video, really enjoyed it - what was especially exciting is being able to draw direct comparison with what you’re saying with Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich Town. He is clearly a big fan of Pep as we dominate games and use many of the same tactics you highlighted across various clubs Pep has been- albeit at a much lower level.
Highly recommend watching some highlights of the season Ipswich Town have just played, it’s been phenomenal.
My take is that Pep No-one's job is safe, the moment he's adapting to a new set up that will not need you , he try by all means to push you out - examples are Zinny and Cancelo obviously with 2022/23 season he didnt need them as he adopted to "center-back only" system , hence are both gone ,, the reason he kep Kyle i think its bcz of pace and his unique abilities on 1v1 situations , otherwise he would have been fired. again that decision to keep already paid off , cz he did an excellent job cooling-down Vini on both games.
lesson learnt : Even KDB can be released at any point given the new adaptation dont need him!
Any managers who can achieved success with Madrid's galactico squads will be called a great manager.
Any managers who achieved success with Man City will be called lucky manager.
I'm glad Ten Hag learned under him. I'm looking forward to the pupil taking the throne from the master over the next few seasons ;)
Has an influence , but ten hag is his own man he has traits of total football but also the influence of psv as its former coach is one of his biggest guru
@@anishwinger I'm aware. ETH still acknowledges Pep was a big influence on him
The fact that mourinho comes in and takes a team of serial losers and in 2 years breaks the record for most points and wins in a season and is 9 points clear of barcelona who had enough points to win la liga in almost any other season is insane. If they had won the UCL that year we’d be talking about that team as one of the best ever
Jose greater than Pep any day of the week. He's reached his 6th European Cup final just last week with Roma.
Pep could never take an Aberdeen or Porto to win a European Cup vs the giant clubs like Sir Alex did with Aberdeen or Jose did with Porto.
@@shahzadirani I'm Portuguese but I've been following Man City for a while and I have to say Pep is a genius in his own way, standing shoulder to shoulder with Mou. We will never see a rivalry at the same level and it's insane to think that for 2 years we had Mou vs Pep and Ronaldo vs Messi and some of the craziest El Classicos ever. A genius is not complete without an equally outstanding rival and we should be grateful these guys pushed each other to levels we probably will never see again.
@@shahzadirani getting tired of this argument salty fans like yourselves seems to forget were pep started from a B TEAM . Getting promotion in his first season one could argue Barcelona B was the Aberdeen of the Spanish lower league. Plus as soon as he came into the first team he promoted reserve team players(remember a certain player name Sergio Busquets) and with that team he won la liga he benched or sold players like Eto Zlatan and gave chances to young talents like David Villa and so on.....Saltiness can only take you so far you Donut.....every successful coach starts somewhere but the agenda against Pep is laughable. Pep's inovativeness speaks volumes of his success as a master football tactician just see where stones is playing this season and before you bring the money this money that argument just look at Chelsea....
@@lazytitan2451 Hahaha I'm about to rip you to shreds with some facts. Winning a European Cup with Aberdeen and defeating Real Madrid is NOT remotely close to anything Pep did with Barcelona B. Want to know why? It's NOT been done for 40 years!
And you speak about Eto'o? Lol in 2009 he was the main striker for Pep when they won the fraudulent UCL in 2009. Next year when Pep sold Eto'o to Inter and could not adapt his tactics when he had Zlatan - guess what? Inter won the Treble by knocking out Barcelona lol.
And you say "young talent David Villa"? HAHAHA. David Villa was a Valencia player when he was a key starter for Spain at Euro 2008 and was the top scorer for Spain at the 2010 World Cup, so when Pep bought him in the summer of 2010 he was already a World Class Player and a World Cup Winner. HAHAHA you are laughable mate learn some ball.
Then you speak about Pep's innovation? Shows how brainwashed you are by him and his marketing team. A defender like John Stones playing in midfield? Guess what? Sir Alex was already doing this in the 1990s and 2000s with Johnsen from CB to CDM and with O'Shea/Phil Jones from CB to CDM. And Sir Alex also played Carrick and Fletcher (two CMs at CB in 2010 for majority of the season).
Lastly, you talk about just one youth academy player in Busquets who played an actual key role in the Barcelona team. Maybe two if we count Pedro. Guess what? Even that's been done before and on a larger scale. Sir Alex won the Treble in 1999 with 7 youth academy players featuring consistently throughout the season (Giggs Scholes Beckham Brown GNeville PNeville Nicky Butt).
LOL come back after you brush up on your football knowledge.
@Lazy Titan he also got rid of deco and dinho
the sorta centre back at fullback concept combats the wingers that are wide strikers within the setups that have become more popular in recent years, the centre half joining the midfield minimises the amount of ground that needs to be made up when they are actually hit on the counter, the box midfield overloads the 3 man midfield that’s become more popular in the league in recent years so they can dominate, all whilst supporting a striker that doesn’t contribute much to the possession, makes his team’s ridiculously difficult to compete against
If the end of the podcast means more of these longer irl videos, well then… I’m in
Give JJ Bull a payrise Joe, he's criminally underrated, you just needed to give him time to adjust to the new position, it's like a new signing.
I want to see him build a team from scratch. Let's see him succeed at Fort William. Do it for the banter, Pep!
Lazy thinking
kompany is doing exactly that. rebuilding a team from scratch. besides pep managed barca b team and got promoted in that year
He started at the barca B team and brought youth players through to the first team. He's already done what you are saying
How many players in his starting XI did he find here?
So you being the best chef in the world and having a 5 stars restaurant, will you go to cook street food in India for prove yourself? I want to see it haha
115, that's how
Nice to see Dias and David Silva in the same team
Brilliant vid, more of these deep dives please!!!!
The second balls thing is my favourite thing about Man City. I support Leicester and we don’t do that at all. To me though it feels like it should be perfectly possible for any coach to teach this? I mean it’s not like you need Messi or Haaland to stand in the right spot so that a defender can automate the best header they can muster under pressure? It’s so good to watch, so simple and logical, yet infuriating my team doesn’t even try it.
Excellent overview BUT this video could have been SO much better if done in two or three parts. Unfortunately JJ has mixed different generations of players at all three clubs and not quite told the full story of Pep's evolution of ideas & his development... He didn't elaborate on the struggle with Mourinho & his tactical dilemma. He underplayed the appalling collapses in the Champions League too! JJ did not mention Pep's rejection of 'tiki-taka', his re-education of Aguero or the need to have a new ball playing goalkeeper with a massive kick. This was somewhat disappointing and strangely slapdash. Even if one hasn't read Perarnau's books it is clear that Pep had a bit of a 'wobble' at Bayern. He genuinely had to re-invent City with an ageing squad whilst adapting to the violence and verticality of the English Premier League. Sadly, JJ rushed through the relatively clever evolution of the this last season which needed a lot more time. Great review but too dumbed down. ⚽

People who say he had to spend billions to win are missing the point. Chelsea, United, Arsenal and Liverpool have high net spends as well and are not nearly as consistent as city. Same goes for Real and Barca.
Yeah since pep came to England, United and Chelsea have spent more than him. People are just lazy with their takes and don't want to give pep the credit he deserves
It's true Pep is one of the most fantastic managers ever seen and that other clubs like Chelsea and Man Utd have spent more than City, however City SHOULD be spending less than those teams anyways. In fact, City should be spending significantly less than what they already have consistently spent since their takeover.
They're not a prestige club like Man Utd or Liverpool or Arsenal even, or even Everton based on club histories. City aren't a real top tier club historically.
They're only at this point now because their Qatari takeover was their catalyst. They'll never truly be a Prestige club, BUT they can pretend and imitate (just like how they have been in recent times)
Please don't put Liverpool in there both managers arrived before five years ago
@@bluemoon1716 Who has been as good Pep or Klopp at United? He is not the Goat lol
no other manager has the luxury of unlimited funds, a boardroom set in place specifically for them, a ground given to them virtually free of charge, arriving to a squad containing Kompany, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Silva, and Aguero... and so on
Pep is playing Football Manager IRL with Man City and his squad rotation
2012:
79 goals for Barcelona
12 goals for Argentina
Worth the JJ giggle
I know Pep is a wonderful tactician but he’s just been at the right clubs at the right time. I doubt he could recreate any of his results with any team that doesn’t have billions to spend
JJ almost making up for his terrible take on Shrek 2 the other day
Now do the counterpoint - Fernando Diniz at Fluminense FC. Regarding youth football, if Pep has trouble of getting professional footballers to understand and appreciate staying in position and how their positioning controls the defense to a certain extent, imagine trying to impose that on 10 year old kids. And yet that is what we are asked to do as youth coaches, teach BOOTB and positional play instead of "boot it downfield and chase it down."
There is no denying Pep's brilliance. And Tifo's analysis is as always, on point ! But, why isn't the sportswashing addressed? First at Barca, then at City, both clubs under investigations for discrepancies, be it refereeing or financial. Of course we aren't at a position yet where we can gauge the extent of the advantages those teams got, but surely we must still factor those aspects in.
Barca buying referees isn't sportswashing jesus christ
@@SteRDLK fair enough, it's not the exactly sportswashing. But there's been numerous cases of corruption within the La Liga & clubs like Barca. They are given a pass & a wide berth simply because of what they have achieved, as possibly one of the greatest teams of all time. Sounds close enough to me. Point isn't the semantics of it, but how it remains unaddressed by football fans & analysts.
Wow brilliant assessment.
Pep is a brilliant coach
When Real Madrid Mourinho made 100 points, it had a lot of help from referees.
Stop discrediting peoples achievements
Can’t wait to implement this into my coed U8 league. Excellent content as always
so much explanation for a team that will be relegated to league one next season
@@H8M0ndays mate just admit it's the same as editing the database in Football Manager
City is not Chelsea or arsenal m8
Messi scored 91 goals in 2012 whole calendar year
if you’re convinced that money and money only can make a great dominant team you should probably consider not watching football anymore
Some of us aren't plastic fans and don't follow plastic teams
Money is the most important thing. Take a look at the champions of the top 5 leagues over the past 10 years and their requisite payroll. European football should really take a page from NA sports. Far more merit based.
@@carnifex2005 I'd disagree that money is the most important thing. Its definitely an important thing, but money with no direction doesn't make a good team. Just look at recent Chelsea and Man Utd. Similarly Liverpool the last 5 years managed to compete every step of the way with City while on a comparatively shoe string budget.
@@carnifex2005 absolutely not. There’s nothing from American sports that football needs to copy except VAR and that’s it. I don’t wanna see premier league teams tanking their season to get the first draft pick or anything like that
@@memofromessex the most followed club in the world is realmadrid,,,they're the monster plastic,they invented state fund and buying trophies you do know that right??
Geez I'm glad he dropped the voice the second time around lol Great video also! Very informative! :)
Seeing Pep's name on a Spanish kit just feels... wrong.
He's Spanish and played for Span tho?
@@dariogutierrez6716it's probably off-putting to some cause of his Catalan ties which is understandable but silly nonetheless (by silly, I'm referring to ppl's reactions about it that have nothing to do with it, not Pep himself)
Indeed, it is poor taste for us catalan people to be shown with the spanish shirt.
@@Xoman08 Probably shouldn't represent the Spanish team then
@@SteRDLK When called he couldn't refuse by law. Had he refused the Spanish federation and justice system would had retaliated bringing charges and it would had been the end of this career at FC Barcelona.
Catalonia is an occupied nation ruled and plundered by Madrid.
JJ and Tifo team! Goodness, what an epic video!
With 115 charges
118 plus the pl, fa cup and champions league 😂😂😘
Why do these videos always gloss over the tactical fouling? The pulls and trips that happens when the opponent beats them. If Pep's team got the cards they deserved it wouldn't be as effective a tactic.
Correction :This was the 5-0 thrashing. Not the 6-2.
The 2008-09 match when Messi was first played as a false 9 was the 6-2 thrashing. The 5-0 was a few years later in the 2010-11 season.
@@MaxIsStrange1 the 5-0 trashing was in the 09-10 season ( Mourinho's first season)
Edit: sorry, it happened in the 10-11 season.
@@yahhou-9564 it was the same season we won the CL in 2011 and you can check the jersey of both the matches to compare. We lost to Inter in the 09-10 season and the kit then was different
@@Culer9605 yes you are right. The only thing I clearly remember is the year (2010) so I assumed it's the 09-10 season when in fact it's like you said. Thank you.
@@MaxIsStrange1 JJ mentions the 6-2 thrashing and then shows Villa and Pedro on the board. Villa and Pedro played in the 5-0 game
Really good video.
only 12 minutes and already so much people crying in the comment "city has money,cheat city," but footbal is not only about money e.g psg they have it all but no establishment.
7:30 basically peps coaching for haaland and it’s payed dividends. He can be a 30 goal a season striker without commanding to have the ball which opens up the midfield and the wings. City are so dangerous and with erling as a persistent threat for defenses I don’t see how the rest of the league can adapt
Pep changing system every season is another factor. The challenge is two folds now.
I love you JJ Bull please never leave Tifo.
One with an untwistable stomach! Fantastic reference
You forgot… fundings
And? Somebody has to be the richest team. The richest teams attract the best managers. Fact
I don't think he did because ever club has funding in epl,,,forest spent more than city this summer should they also be included??
How much did man u spend in the same time as city 1.1b against 660 mil
@@zizujillo5818 Forest haven't spent 1.5 billion in the last 20 years.
@@devidwobinson8747 the way you Englishmen have all eaten up the hyper commercialisation is really saddening
Love tifos videos and analisis. One big correction though. JJ says: "Guardiola now has only defenders and attackers. That is definitivley an overstatement. Rodri, B. Silva, De Bruyne, Gundogan are midfielders. Stones has arguably converted into a Mid and the same can be said for Grealish So, midfielders are still pretty much Pep's thing.
What book are you holding pls I'll need to get my hand on football tactics and philosophy books thanks
Just look it up he had a book of rinus Michels johan cruyff and pep
When we talk about inverted wingers, we mean a left-footed winger on the right, right-footed winger on the left. It has a basis on what the word "inverted" actually means.
Why are "inverted full-backs" just full-backs that don't play as wide? Why did that become an acceptable thing to call them?
Because while having an "opposite" dominant foot was the original definition of an inverted winger, the modern understanding refers more to play style than dominant foot.
@Edward King But my point is that "inverted" isn't the right word for it. I know it's a stupid thing to argue about, so I don't want to really, it's just a pet peeve. There's nothing "inverted" about playing in a half space instead of out wide. It's just narrower.
It's also just a problem in English. In Spanish when they tuck in we call them "interiors"
A right footed winger playing on the left (and vice-versa) will shift inward centrally, hence "Inverted winger". It's not just about which foot is the dominant one, but because the player is right footed and playing off the left (and vice-versa) it then implies he's going to invert centrally.
Therefore, calling a right back that shifts inward centrally; an "inverted fullback" is consistent and makes total sense
I can think of 115 reasons
Step one: have a net spend of 3.5 billion pounds over 18 years
Step two: profit
Arsenal have the third highest net spend over the last 5 seasons…£200m more than Man City
Net spend. Because they are awful at selling players and in recent years Arsenal has become a place where players value goes to die.
Massage the figures however you want to fit your narrative. But Chelsea and Man City have completely broken English football with their spending capabilities
Arsenal have had to to completely rebuid a terrible squad for arteta whilst city can spend luxuriously year on year due to smashing the transfer market a while back
@Captain Hindsight there's not 1 season where city were outright no. 1 at spending you do know that right??
@@zizujillo5818 do you comprehend the idea of cumulative spending
@@adventurerwannabe so it only works for City and not other clubs,,okay
I remember the real Madrid game I saw somewhere that guardiola told the bayern players to trust him but the old bayern players didn't
Exactly what happened and that is why Pep didn't continue at Bayern and went to join Manchester City with Txiki Begiristain.
Why is everyone crying here about money it's a tifo video 😭
BEST MANAGER ON THE PLANET
He is an amazing coach but we can’t ignore the caveat that it’s much easier to coach a team when you can buy ANY player you want…for example, he would not have had anywhere near this level of success had he joined Liverpool instead. These things are still important to mention.
Jurgen Klopp has spent like 800M in Liverpool
To say something unequivocally, that can never actually be proven or disproven, is an exercise in silliness.
@@katech6020 let’s not get into the discussion of Man City’s transfer business vs Liverpool, there’s no point 😂😂😂
@@katech6020 They havent spent 800M.. they sold loads to get to that figure.. why dont we bring up stats?
@@carpetbilly whether they sold, whether your daddy gifted them money, bottom line is they've spent that amount. City also sold players too.
Just because of that rotation of players chart at the end I thought Declan Rice would be a great fit for Man City... People keep saying he wouldn't be a starter. Most players are not a traditional starter in Pep's team, but they win almost everything, every time.
One of the best videos on this topic
People talking about funding, as a Chelsea supporter I need to tell you, just shut up. It's abundantly clear that money isn't the be all and end all.
Not to mention, his Barca side regularly fielded almost entirely youth team players
Not his youth academy players though. They were already good/established when he joined
@@cam5556 did I suggest he developed them anywhere. The point is, guardiola has proved he can do it without spending a fortune.
Not to mention, they had also just come in 3rd the season before. They were established as good and guardiola turned them into elite "best in the world in their position potentially" footballers
@@cam5556 he was the one coaching them at youth level,,,do you have any idea how he started his carrier???FYI foden is the youngest to 5 epl tittles am.guessing he was also developed by someone else,,,,
25:50 - What you get is a team that doesn't only play nice football, but also wins. A team that doesn't only win but that completely dominates football!😊
All the NPCs in the comments putting it down to just money when Utd have spent more, Chelsea spent about the same as well.
This season maybe, but the illegal financial doping since the state of UAE bought the club in 2008 is key to the success of the current Man City team
@@memofromessex who's the owner UAE or mansour???last time I checked only 1 man bought man city where's this state thing coming from??
English a f opinion
It was the best tactical breakdown I ever saw
These comments 😂 sad considering it's a tifo video.
What's sad about them if I may ask
it's not sad bro, it's facts that people need to see. The Catalan media and Pep's marketing team are geniuses for marketing him as some revolutionary when in fact he's a fraud. His only 2 UCL wins were thanks to the referees LOL.
Pepe does what I do on FIFA career mode. I always have two teams, a first and a second, and I swap each team every game, so we have optimal fitness (better performance), and players stay happy. My philosophy is If you're in the team, you're gonna play. I'm not gonna say he got this from me...
... But he got it from you
haha@@scoobydoo7275
All these comments... yes, it is all about money. Go speak with chelsea, arsenal, liverpool, psg, even Barça post Guardiola
Don't forget united
Really enjoyed this video!
