In some ways, 2022/23 saw peak Guardiola in English football. Not only did City win the league, but this time their closest rivals, Arsenal, were playing a form of Pep-ball, while Championship winners Burnley also were building on foundations laid by the Catalan. And with principles of Pep’s beloved juego de posicion visible in sides like Brighton, it seemed like the manager had succeeded in moulding the league to him - but ironically, this City side also represented a departure from what he’d done before.
Of course, the foundations remain the same. This is a dominant possession team, and the fluid interchange of roles and positions has become natural to anyone watching Guardiola’s career. But in other ways, it feels like this iteration of City has been as much about the talent available as Pep’s larger philosophy - and blending the two has created perhaps the most effective outfit of his spell in the Prem.
So what has changed at the Etihad? How did Pep reinvent the Cityzens once again - and reinvent himself? Let’s find out.
