DIETMAR HAMANN: I don't think City's players would run through a brick wall for Pep Guardiola like Liverpool's would for Jurgen Klopp... I just don't get the hype around the Spaniard

You can’t question the pedigree of the two great rival managers calling the shots at the Etihad Stadium but I firmly believe that, in terms of achievements, Jurgen Klopp has got an edge over Pep Guardiola.

What these two fine coaches and fierce rivals have done over the last few years is incredible and whoever comes out on top on Sunday afternoon, that won’t change.

When Klopp arrived at Anfield in 2015 and Guardiola at City a year later, the Premier League was hugely competitive and hard to win. In just a few years they have turned it into a two-horse race.
