Barcelona hero Gerard Pique has declared Pep Guardiola the best coach in history.

Pique fell out with Guardiola in the Manchester City manager's final season with Barca.

But he told ESPN: “Guardiola is a genius. For me and for many, he is the greatest coach in the history of football. Guardiola has it all.

"He matched the best generation of footballers at Barcelona.

"He was a brilliant coach with a group of very good players, everything came together and that's why what happened happened. I think Guardiola has helped many of us in our careers. Pep proves every day that he is the best."
