"We Had Chemistry From The First Day" | Pep Guardiola & Mikel Arteta Sit Down With Gabriel Clarke 

Pep just being polite, arteta a snake 🐍

One horse race now for the title

@@sisalim9904 They're on ewual points, so I really don't see how that is true! No way to know what the next few matches will bring! 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@Sccoppehe’s a snake for going to a club that he originally played for? He never played for city so ultimately if he stayed there that’s the closest he’s getting to a snake😂 not like pep didn’t know he’d leave to have his own career lmao

@@sisalim9904 Arsenal?

Reminds me of how Wenger seemed obsessed.

@@sonsofbiscuits1 Wenger was obsessed. It cost him a divorce with his wife

@@Yasinn105 Wenger and his wife are actually back together before he left Arsenal

Wenger was a maniac in his younger years and even at the beginning at Arsenal. He was literally zero tolerance, had a different management style at the end but still obsessed

Thanks mate didn’t hear that bit in the video

Good take.

It's actually the opposite. City need consistency to keep winning and staying on the top, while Arsenal need belief that they can win to get to the top like City.

@@seven92023 I think you can argue both ways. I was looking at it in the way I believe pep was trying to explain it. He wants his players to believe they can do it at a high level constantly after the highs and lows with many of the winners running on tired legs and possibly tired mentals. Whereas arteta is just trying to drum home the fact of - we're ahead we need to be consistent. I don't see arsenal taking it due to the age and a lack of depth. What you said also isn't wrong though it's all up for interpretation that was just my take.

Spot on!

You could make a similarly valid argument if their answers were reversed. Hence, I am a little skeptical of this take.

you mean johan cruyff

Lol you mean Johan Cruyff and Ajax

@@unknownunknwn914 so cruyff gave us pep and arteta and messi and xavi and inesta?

@@Ragnar850 why do you keep deleting the comment 😂😂😂😂 without Total Football there is no Cruyff, without Cruyff there is no tiki taka and without tiki taka there is no Guardiola, Xavi, Iniesta etc

@@Jasonmulla can say the same for Rinus Michels (Cruyff's inspiration to become a coach). Barcelona indirectly offered alot to modern football, 1992 Barcelona UCL winning team never played glorious football like the 2009 one that's why everybody talks about Pep's 2009 Barca more than Cruyff's 1992 Barca and I'm a Barça fan.

As a city fan I can say Arsenal and Mikel got huge respect from me You guys have incredible talent

@hanwaisproperty fave player?

Strange, because he actually played more games for Everton :D

@@jonatha_nbarron yes, however he played for arsenal, he was arsenal captain and he retired at arsenal. It's normal he doesn't wanted to celebrate against arsenal.

​@@jonatha_nbarronHe always wanted to play for Arsenal, in his own words.

The Pep of Zelda, I am Pep, Peps of tomorrow, Apex Peps

@@Preludedrawyessir

We also need better subs. I highly doubt pep would be in the same position with this arsenal team.

@@stefandinu6389 yep, that will come in time. People that think this seasons a flash in the pan have no idea. This isn’t even final form arsenal.

​@@FatTodd I hope so

Last season it felt like a mixture of Pep and Wenger. This season it feels like Arteta

This ur guys season! Even doe we right behind arsenal we just have to wait and see .

@@ortizilluminatir4730 just seeing this now, after this past month city deserve every accolade they get this season, playing beautiful football lately. Overall a wonderful season for all football fans (except Chelsea and Tottenham) can’t be upset losing the league to one of if not the best team in the world. All respect to Pep and City players they earned it

Course💯

How about Xavi?

​@@Pant10 Xavi is also a manager that surely follows peps philosophy in fotball so he will probably have a good managerial career too

He's not Pep's successor. He's the first Mikel Arteta

@@luh7823 ofc i know that, what i meant was he can be categorized as peps spiritual successor too, both barca and arsneal bottling in europa league is kinda funny tho

@@Pant10 comparing the teams Pep and both Xavi and Arteta had at their first season I would say Xavi and Arteta did good.

Eneryi. I love the man and his accent.

and passion

Well lose 4 games man city I give you respect. 1000 dollar bottle of red wine 🍷 and take my credit card have dinner with ya wife on me

Ahh Good Days

I clicked on the video with the intention of figuring out peps type, and then I see this comment lol

lol I wonder what Mikel's type could be then.

Xavi and ten Hag as well

Pep didn't make Mikel

​@@numederoman Wenger and Walter Smith

Without 1+1=2, there will be no E=mc^2. It doesn’t mean E=mc^2 is not brilliant.

So what?

Without Cruyff and Rinus Michels there would be no Total Football. You got it backwards.

Without the letter T, it would just be icky acka.

Yeah as a barça fan thank You netherlands for Rinus Michel and Johan Cruyff

The way some of you Gooners are just erasing Wenger is quite comical.

They didn't listen so they royally missed a good manager

Congrats tonight you deserved it but we still have a game in hand and we fight you all the way

Manchester Cashy!! 🎉

Not gonna matter when your points get deducted.

No chance it's over mate

lol

@@davidlittman7194you probably still use bottles cry more 😂

Even without Funds i see Pep winning a lot , as much as it's in the money. It's more with the work as well. Just his Name's Pep Gaurdiola & he has to win every time & has to gain success very quickly so he does have to spend, thinking current times. I'd say every manager has spent quite big. Klopp's spent Huge as well for example & with that squad , their wage bill is bigger than city's.

We are yet to see much of Arteta though

@@BeerLicious Klopp has spent huge only after offloading players and spending the money from the selling of players. There’s a difference. Same with Sir Alex. He had academy players and won with them first. Revenue came in. Then he spent money that was all there thanks to the initial success without buying Big. Pep hasn’t proven himself in such a situation yet. He even went to a Treble winning Bayern team and couldn’t even get them to the UCL final in 3 years.

@@shahzadirani In what situation is that exactly? Can you be more specific? It's not Guardiola's fault that he has always been successful. He's never been sacked because he's never been in danger of getting sacked. What does that tell you? Do you blame him for only taking top jobs? Would you turn down Bayern, Man City and Barca to coach Wigan or Mallorca so that the world could see your true mettle? I doubt it.

it is up to him to decide which projects he chooses. Barcelona as his first full time job I understand (boyhood club + like you said anyone would jump at it). There though - yes he took Cruyff’s principles and brought back total football BUT a lot of fans get carried away thinking that style was unbeatable. Football is about winning right? And that total football style was beatable as shown by Chelsea in the 2009 semis and Inter 2010 semis. But the referees helped Barcelona through in 2009 and 2011. So people saying Pep won and won a treble stylishly don’t mention the context that Without that Huge help from the officials, there is no Treble for Pep in the first place in 2009 and no shot of getting thru vs Arsenal in 2011 when Arsenal were leading the tie with 40 minutes to go. Secondly, people argue he already has 30 trophies in 15 years. But mate, out of those 30, again see the context: 3 Bundesliga easy titles which even Niko Kovac won as manager of Bayern. Couldn’t get Bayern to a UCL final. The DFB Pokal and Copa Del Rey are also cups that usually Barcelona/Madrid or Bayern win in their respective countries. At City, I will give him credit for winning 4 premier league titles (even though he didn’t adapt his tactics and just used the same style. Realized his tactics were not working with Zabaleta Kolarov etc so he bought an entire new backline). While that’s fine, think about how Sir Alex, and Klopp have brought out the best from players like Anderson Cleverly Welbeck Jones Smalling; Henderson Wijnaldum Matip Gomez Schmelzer Gotze Lewandowski at Dortmund. And the list goes on. Pep may fine tune a player but he’s never made someone average look world class. I’m not including Scholes Giggs Xavi Iniesta in this list because they already had high ceilings from their academy days. While Pep has been great, he’s not had a situation like a Klopp at Dortmund or Liverpool, Sir Alex at Aberdeen and United, Jose at Porto or Inter where these 3 managers instilled in these teams to win for years to come. For Barcelona, while Pep made a few tough calls like selling Deco and Ronaldinho, you have to remember he still inherited a squad that comprised of Puyol Eto’o Xavi Valdes Iniesta Marquez (6-7 of these players were in a UCL semi final few months before he took over and had won the UCL just 2 years ago in 2006; that’s not a club in decline like United that hadn’t won the big trophies in 20 years or a Liverpool that hadn’t won the league in 30 years or a Chelsea that went from top4 to big timers only after Jose.
