Guardiola named Premier League Manager of the Season

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has been named League Managers Association (LMA) Premier League Manager of the Season.

The 48-year-old has collected the award for the second year in a row after he oversaw City’s successful title tilt against Liverpool.

Under Guardiola’s watch, the Citizens amassed a hugely impressive points tally of 98 - the second-highest in Premier League, a total only beaten by City themselves the previous year.
