Pep ended the debate with his third Champions League title and opened up another one
Which of his teams is the best?
Pep Guardiola's critics are running out of arguments. His third Champions League as a coach - only Ancelotti (4) has more - reaffirmed him as a legendary coach. The truth is with or without titles, as he himself said.
His legacy is immeasurable. Not only did they "have the time of their life", not only scored many goals, but also had a lot of fun. They don't just score a lot of goals, they don't just win trophies in England. Same in Europe. No more "mantras". Find another one. Farewell to Guardiola, who would not have won the Champions League without Messi
The "easy to get resources" for Pep's "enemies" is over. They cannot repeat that Guardiola cannot win the Champions League without Messi, Xavi or Iniesta. The youngest coach to win an "orejona" - he did it with Barcelona in 2009 (age 38) and in 2011 - ended his special "Turkish passion" in Istanbul.
Not only that:
he became the first coach to score two hat-tricks (League, Cup and Champions League) and the second most successful in history with 35 titles. Only the eternal 'Sir Alex Ferguson' surpassed him. "Messi doesn't need to win the World Cup to be the best player in history and neither does Guardiola [Champions League]," warned his former Domènec Torrent. Oh that's it. 'Hater gonna hate'.
What is the best team Pep has ever coached?
The best, etymologically speaking, may be the one who wins the most. Currently, this team remains his first Barça, which won the "sextete" in 2009.
Aesthetically, this Barcelona 'tiki-taka' - although Guardiola doesn't like the term - is straight down in history. Everyone wants to imitate him. However, this Man City hat-trick has rekindled the debate. The writer of this article is one of those who think it's not even Guardiola's "most beautiful" city. But let's go back to the beginning. As for the title, it would be the best since he arrived at the Etihad, the most complete, the most chameleon, the man with the most records and the best performer. That's why this time, 12 years later, Pep won the Champions League again.
