Not taking away some of the achievement but he had a head start. They were already contenders plus a huge spending spree.
I was going to pop in with the same thought. Even still, looking at those numbers, going 200 for 269 is crazy. New coach or not, that's gotta be among the best runs/rates for any team in history.
there's only a 10 game difference between the greats at #2 thru #4, while there is a 200 game difference from #4 and #5, 53 games less from Pep is still huge
Definitely, it's a huge achievement.
Add a big asterisk to this with a footnote, just like everything else City have achieved over the last years.
Maybe a stupid question, but does it count if he wasn't there for the game? A player wouldn't get credit for a win if they didn't play, so should the manager get credit for the win if he wasn't managing the game?
In Pep we trust.
I was surprised that Klopp hasn't reached 200 wins, can possibly quicker than Sir Alex but seems hard https://www.premierleague.com/managers/5119/J%C3%BCrgen-Klopp/overview
