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?

As a Manchester United fan, the points deduction has nothing to do Pep. Therefore, his legacy isn’t impacted at all.

He still had to coach everyone, get them to play his system, develop players that needed to be deliever, build his team, and pick the right teams for the games. If Pep was actively involved in the stuff that different.

There’s a famous presser of Pep, where he says the owners of the club told him they did nothing. He told them “if you did tell me and we will go against the ruling together. If you lie to me I’ll be leaving the next day” something like that.

So, Pep is Pep.
