Pep is the best coach right now but there is no point to compare him to Ferguson, they doesn’t even have the same job.
Ferguson was a manager. He totally rebuilt the club when he arrived. He changed the culture, restructured it from top to bottom, to begin with the academy. He gave this club his former glory and much more. No other job is comparable to what he did, or maybe a long time ago, as Sir Matt Busby did.
Pep is a fantastic coach but let’s be honest, he had everything on the plate coming to City. Everything was organized to his arrival, including the big fat brown envelope.
And I think that is why he was not interested coming to United, he saw it was a big mess and choose the easy way. That is not criticism by the way, he is just no manager and has no interest in it, he just want to coach and win trophies and not run a club.
