Manchester City’s Success: Not Boring, Not Just About Money
Manchester City’s head coach, Pep Guardiola, has rejected claims that his team’s success is becoming too predictable or solely due to their financial resources. As the Citizens chase an unprecedented fourth successive Premier League title, Guardiola insists that their achievements are not solely down to money.
Manchester City’s success is not just about money, says Pep Guardiola
“It’s not boring,” Guardiola said in a recent interview. “It’s difficult. Before, it was the money. For that reason, Manchester United should have won all the titles, Chelsea - all the titles, Arsenal - all the titles.”
Guardiola believes that if money was the sole determining factor, other teams would have lifted more silverware than Manchester City. “They spent as much money in the last five years as us. They should be there. They are not there,” he added.

Manchester City will take a giant step towards their fourth straight Premier League crown with a victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday. While Guardiola admits that the achievement was not at the forefront of his squad’s intentions at the beginning of the campaign, he is well aware of its significance.
“In the beginning of the season, we didn’t think about it,” he said. “But then we were in February, March, and April, we were still there [in the title race]. After that, it ignites something in all our heads.”
Manchester City celebrate a win
Guardiola is keen to make history with Manchester City, and he knows that winning the Premier League title would be a remarkable achievement. “No team has done it. That shows how hard it is. Liverpool in the 1980s, Alex Ferguson’s [Manchester] United in the 1990s. Chelsea with [Roman] Abramovich and Jose [Mourinho], Arsenal with [Arsene] Wenger didn’t do it,” he said.
The Premier League trophy
Manchester City’s success is not just about money; it’s about hard work, dedication, and a strong team spirit. As they chase another Premier League title, Guardiola’s men will be determined to prove their doubters wrong and make history in the process.
