Pep Guardiola reaches 250 Premier League wins milestone.
Reaching a milestone 250 Premier League wins is an achievement that requires a special kind of celebration. That is what Pep Guardiola is planning after Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Brentford secured him access to an exclusive club of managers who have accomplished the feat with a single club.
Only Sir Alex Ferguson (Manchester United) and Arsene Wenger (Arsenal) have done so previously – and Guardiola is already planning a football fan’s dream guest list to toast the landmark. “It’s an honour to be alongside Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, I will invite them to a good dinner,” said the Spaniard, who is in his 10th campaign with City.
”It’s a pleasure to be part of that in Premier League history, really pleased. Now let’s go for 250 more.” Having taken 349 top-flight matches to reach the landmark, Guardiola managed it in record time – 55 games quicker than Ferguson (404) with Wenger (424) next.
In the Premier League era, David Moyes also has 250 wins under his belt, but has achieved them across spells with multiple clubs. Guardiola has joined a list of 16 other bosses to reach the tally in the history of the English top flight, including Bill Shankly (Liverpool), Matt Busby (Manchester United), and Brian Clough (Nottingham Forest).
