    Guardiola got lucky only in the sense that Barcelona took a risk and appointed him, but since then he’s repeated the success he had there in two other leagues. There’s not many managers who’ve achieved that. Of course the money helps, but he’s an era defining coach who has changed how the game is played at the highest level.
