Ian Wright, a former player for Arsenal, has given his opinion on the current discussion about which manager is superior: Jurgen Klopp or Pep Guardiola. The pundit also thinks that the current charges against Man City could play a significant role in determining the outcome. The competition between Klopp’s Liverpool and Guardiola’s Man City has resulted in multiple intense clashes during the Premier League title races. Over the last five seasons, Liverpool and Manchester City have emerged as the top two teams on three occasions. This past Sunday, they played to a 1-1 draw at Anfield in the Premier League. The two clubs are very close in points with 10 games remaining, creating a potentially exciting title race, with Arsenal also in the mix. Wright appeared as a guest on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football program with Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher. He was tasked with selecting the superior manager between Klopp and Guardiola. Additionally, he observed Guardiola’s actions compared to Klopp’s at the end of the game, which highlighted a point about Anfield. The Premier League has announced a new decision on Financial Fair Play that will affect Manchester United and Manchester City. Wright indicated that Klopp may be worthy of the title. He also noted how the 115 charges currently facing Manchester City from the Premier League could impact the public perception of the rivalry between Klopp and Guardiola. Wright suggested that while Guardiola has achieved success, Klopp deserves credit for his efforts to compete with Manchester City and build a competitive team. He implied that Guardiola may have had an easier time due to certain circumstances.
