The former City midfielder believes Pep Guardiola has moulded the team into the world's best side
Pep Guardiola has built the best team in world football at Manchester City, according to the club's former midfielder Joey Barton.
City are on track to win the quadruple, with Guardiola's men 16 points clear at the top of the Premier League and through to the final of the Carabao Cup, where they will face Arsenal on February 25.
A 4-0 thrashing of Basel on Tuesday - in which Leroy Sane returned from injury - leaves City with a foot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, while a trip to League One side Wigan Athletic awaits in the FA Cup fifth round on Monday.
