“The tenure, the time, and for many, many reasons… I’m happy that Sir Alex Ferguson, the greatest, could see.

“I’m pretty sure [to] Sir Alex, we are not the ‘noisy neighbours’, we are the ‘neighbours’. Just ‘the neighbours’. And I’m happy that he has been watching.”

Ferguson retired three years before Guardiola joined Manchester City in 2016 after leaving Bayern Munich.
