Despite this, Guardiola has won five out of the last six Premier League titles and when asked recently if success would ever return to the red side of Manchester, he replied: “Maybe not in the way that Sir Alex Ferguson controlled in those days because in that moment I think there were only two or three teams.”

He further noted that Man United’s dominance of the English league under Sir Ferguson occurred when only a few clubs were challenging for the title, saying such a feat will be difficult to replicate now.
