Surely it would place a massive asterisk on all the trophies won during his time at Man City? In future discussions on the greatest manager would this be a talking point which stains our perception on him? Or will he still be lauded as the greatest by some despite the wider context?

The only time in his coaching career he hasn't been accused of cheating are in his bayern tenure iirc. Cheated as a player, too. I think being found guilty here too would be pretty damning, honestly. People would rightfully recognize his coaching ability in the short term, because despite cheating (hypothetically) Pep has still had a significant impact on the game. In the long term however I'd hope to see the public bin him
