Jurgen Klopp or Pep Guardiola: Gary Neville reveals why he would prefer to coach Manchester United

Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville has said he’d prefer Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to take over the Red Devils than Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.

The duo are termed to be the best rival coaches in England and also the best managers in the Premier League since their appointments.

They have both won a combination of six Premier League titles, two Champions League, three FA Cups and five League cups.

Guardiola and Klopp’s teams are first and second on the Premier League table respectively, and will meet on Sunday for the title race decisive game.

Asked who he thought was the best manager in the world right now, Neville told the Daily Ketchup Podcast: “I’d say Jurgen Klopp.

“Jurgen Klopp works with a budget that is far less than Pep Guardiola’s. Pep Guardiola is a genius and he’ll be one of the ones that’ll be remembered forever more.

“But Jurgen Klopp for me is an amazing manager. If you said to me which manager would you bring into Manchester United tomorrow, it’d be Jurgen Klopp. But [Liverpool] might never let him leave!”
