Eyes not spreadsheets
I'd wait till Guardiola faces a more significant challenge before grouping him in the highest tier.

Marketing? Was the reason of his last three contracts after all...

He didn't call him a dud exactly, but said that he wasn't expecting him to be as good as he was still plus he doesn't make signings there anyways.If he was expecting a dud then why sign him?
I think it was expected to be just a Marketing type signing with his wages going to Charity to boost PSG's profile, but he ended up playing important matches for them including the CL one against Barca.

When he was 24?
You can't be that naive haha.If he was expecting a dud then why sign him?
Why?
Don't tell me it's one of those dumbarse English reasons like "he managed X, so he will never be welcome here."
Truth is that he has a more impressive record than Pellegrini and City would be lucky to get him
Trouble is that it would all end up in tears as the clueless owners want a stooge not a manager and that's not Rafa's way

I was going to reply to you with an actual response, but I honestly can't be bothered with you. Your idiocy isn't worth my time.
Go on, enlighten me as to why you would give up supporting a team because they hire a top quality manager

His failure to elaborate may have something to do with the fact that he'd rather not have a (fictitious) anecdote about how you know some figure of sporting excellence spat at him, I suspect.
Wrong

S'not. I met Roberto Mancini in a pub once. Therefore I'm right.

I cannot stand posts like this.
It shows a complete lack of understanding of what a good coach actually does.

Not necessarily, no-one pegs Mourinho as a chequebook manager.

Yep. People just assume that Barcelona were always awesome, which isn't quite the case. In the season before Guardiola took over, they obtained 67 points in the league. In his last season, they obtained 100 points. That's a hell of a lot of an improvement.
