“It’s an honour to be alongside Alex Ferguson,” Pep Guardiola says after Treble triumph
Manchester City defeated Inter Milan 1-0 in Instabul to lift the 2022/23 Champions League title. The victory saw them complete an impressive Treble, joining Manchester United as the only English side to do a three-peat in a single season.
Pep Guardiola joined United legend Sir Alex Ferguson as the only managers to win the Treble with an English side.
“It is an honour for me to be alongside Sir Alex Ferguson. I got a message from him this morning and it is an honour,” said Guardiola.
“People say I have to win trebles every season. I am a good manager, but no. I like this competition for the fact we won it, it is part of history and players will be remembered for the rest of their lives.
“But now give credit for the five Premier Leagues won in six years. It is important now that people don’t forget what we have done. Maybe they can create a museum so the fans can look at the trophies.”
