'The influence he has on the club is huge': Manchester City winger Bernardo Silva brands manager Pep Guardiola as the greatest ever manager after perennial success in English football

Manchester City's Bernardo Silva gave his manager Pep Guardiola the best compliment possible by calling him the best manager of all-time.

The Spanish coach has transformed both City's playing style and fortunes since arriving at the club in 2016, winning back-to-back Premier League titles in 2018 and 2019 as well as the domestic treble last season.

And Portuguese winger Bernardo, who arrived in Manchester a year after Guardiola, has said that the footballing intelligence of the entire City squad has been enhanced by the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich coach.
