Pep Guardiola is the second longest-serving manager in the Premier League.
The Catalan manager is the second longest-serving manager in the Premier League after Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp.
He has been holding his position for seven years and 98 days and Sunday’s tie against Arsenal will be his 426th game as Man City manager.
This kind of longevity is unusual in modern football and Guardiola explains how his players have helped him stay at the club.
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss has won every possible trophy with the Cityzens in this seven-year period.
“It’s a good question for the players. I am asking this question many, many times for myself,” he said.
“‘Oh again, this guy is shouting at me and saying something again and again and again…’ That is why sometimes you have to refresh the squad, the players or move the manager.
“It’s an honour to be the second-longest serving manager right now behind Jurgen. That means we have done really, really well because the big clubs don’t wait.”
