Pep Guardiola finds himself in the category of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo

The rivalry of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi has pushed the duo to achieve great things in their careers. Hence, the future generation would find it hard to replicate the same success. But, as far as managers are concerned, one person created the same impact and Guardiola ranks with the likes of Messi and Ronaldo. Reputed journalist Guillem Balagué was also full of praise. 

He said, “There’s a bunch of things. I do believe that those who are right at the top are like him, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, and Mourinho. All these people, must have been born with something that does not stop them at any point. They continue wanting to develop new ideas and impress at the end of the ideas to get salvation and love. They want more than anybody else.”
