What Guardiola has done by building a formidable team with Manchester city, is same thing Ten Hag is trying to replicate at Manchester United.
I think all coaches will try to build their team as well as possible regardless of whether they want to imitate other coaches' style or not. Pep Guardiola is a coach who has been recognized for his prowess in coaching a club and building his squad and mentality, not only at Barcelona but he has proven that at Bayern Munich and Manchester City.
Ten Hag needed several seasons to bring success to Manchester United, certainly not this season, but he is starting to give the best competition in the standings this season. Manchester right now is not red, but blue thanks to Guardiola.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool should go back to the drawing board too.
Next season? Of course, that was obviously expected.
