How would Pep Guardiola’s legacy be impacted if Man City are found guilty of the 115 charges? (alien.top)

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?

It would only effect the conversation I terms of number 1 manager the century or of all time etc. He is an excellent manager, but there are factors that go into that he said so himself, he is excellent when he has "A/S ranked" players available but by his own admission he is no where near as effective when working with "B class" players and below. Can't quite remember the quote but he said if he managed Leeds he would get them relegated or something.

So it will just be another factor in the conversation I assume for many it will bump him down places but some still regard him as the best manager still in the game some don't because of all the controversy around Man City and Barcelona when he was about and that takes away from his accomplishments.
